une Harriman’s name is etched in Randolph Raiders’ volleyball history, not just as part of the 2015 State Championship-winning team, but as a record-setting powerhouse. A four-year Varsity player and setter, Harriman holds career records for Aces (151) and Set Assists (1,005), along with single-season records in Aces (84) and Set Assists (497). Her contributions, especially her 1,000th set assist as a sophomore, cemented her legacy as one of the most dominant players in Raider volleyball.
Reflecting on her time at Randolph, Harriman fondly remembers the 2015 State Championship run as a turning point. "We were the underdogs going into the championship, with a losing record against a nearly undefeated team," she recalls. "Randolph athletics taught me resilience—never to count myself out, no matter how tough the situation." Harriman’s leadership and performance on the court earned her both the Offensive MVP in 2016 and All-State honors after winning the County Tournament in her junior year.
After high school, Harriman attended the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), where she graduated in 2022 with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology with a concentration in Exercise Science. Her academic journey took her beyond the classroom, as she worked on a grant-funded research project aimed at increasing exercise participation in patients with Parkinson’s Disease—a meaningful experience that shaped her future aspirations.
June has set her sights on a new challenge: becoming a Physician Assistant. She plans to begin her studies in the Fall of 2025, having already been accepted to a program in Nashville. While her passion for medicine grows, Harriman also found time to return to Randolph as a Middle School volleyball coach in 2018 and 2019, where she shared her knowledge and love for the sport with younger athletes. "It was incredibly rewarding to coach at Randolph," she says. "Some day, I might get back into coaching, but right now, my focus is on getting my Master’s degree."
Her future looks bright as she navigates through the interview process for her Physician Assistant studies, with plans to explore specialties like OBGYN, cardiology, and surgery. Harriman’s journey, both on and off the volleyball court, is a testament to hard work, and passion—qualities she credits to her time at Randolph. "The lessons I learned as an athlete here go far beyond the court. I want to be remembered as someone who worked hard and inspired others to do the same."
June Harriman may be closing one chapter, but her story continues to inspire in the healthcare field, proving that the Raider spirit of resilience endures.
