Price was a middle blocker for Chinook High School and helped lead the Coyotes to a 30-14 overall record as a senior. That same year, CHS earned a 9-0 league record. Price recorded 165 kills, 67 blocks and 20 aces while hitting .314 in 2016 to earn league and team mvp honors, and was named CHS Grade 12 Female Athlete of the Year. She earned first-team all-star honors in 2015 as a junior when the Coyotes finished league play at 10-0.
Price has been a member of Volleyball Canada. In the spring of 2016, she was named to the Youth National Development Program. Price was part of Team Alberta in the program, which she lists as the biggest moment in her high school career. Team Alberta U17 was the Summer 2016 Gold Medal winner at the National Tournament in Richmond, British Columbia.
Many teams recruited Price, including Rutgers, Butler, Villanova, Gonzaga and Mississippi State. She was also heavily recruited in Canada by University of Saskatchewan, Trinity Western, Western Ontario, Memorial University and Queen’s University. Price chose Colorado because she was really impressed with the school, coaches, girls on the team and Boulder. She said, “It was a great fit.”

Mahoney on Price
“Danielle is a prototypical Pac-12 middle blocker. She has great size at 6’4”, with long levers and fluid movements, and she is extremely quick off the floor. Coming from Canada, she has flown under the recruiting radar but her experience in the Canadian National Team pipeline this past summer has exposed her to a high-level of volleyball and allowed her to take big steps in developing her game. Danielle’s high level of athleticism, her competitive spirit and her blue-collar work ethic will make her a force as a middle blocker here at Colorado.”
