Thompson was a three-time first-team All-American during her UW (University of Washington) career (2003-06) and was a central figure in helping coach Jim McLaughlin, who arrived at Washington in 2001, transform UW into a national volleyball power. She led Washington to three straight Final Four appearances (2004-06) and set a still-standing NCAA career record for assists per set, 14.56.

American trained with the U.S. national team over the summer and is considering playing professionally abroad for a seventh straight season. Maybe she will join Volero Zurich… But everything is just based on rumors for now.
