Jennifer Barba was a member of the inaugural Mercyhurst Women's Volleyball team as she competed for the Lakers from 2000 until 2003. A 6-foot-1 middle hitter from Meadville, Pa., Barba was a force at the net for Mercyhurst. She remains the program's all-time leader in total blocks while ranking second in kills and attack percentage.
Barba recorded the Laker's record for blocks in a season during her senior year – a mark that stands to this day. She also had the second-highest total for blocks, which she set as a sophomore.
Barba collected several awards during her time at Mercyhurst. While the Lakers competed in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, she was twice named Second-Team All-Conference and once Honorable-Mention All-Conference. Barba was also honored twice on the All-Conference Academic Team. Her final honor was bestowed upon her at the end of her senior year when she was named Mercyhurst's Female Senior Student-Athlete of the Year for 2003-04.
