Since Robert Redford is (unfortunately) in the news, can you tell me which Gopher player was nicknamed "Hobbes" by Mike Hebert?

There will be no prize other than a pat on the head.
 


OK. While you all are pondering that one (right? that's what you're doing, right?), here's another one:

Who is the shortest Gopher volleyball player in program history?
 

Bonus:

Who had the shortest career? (Choboy does not count. This player was on the roster.)

Bonus, bonus, the fewest number of players on a team?

All my answers are subject to factchecking, btw.
 



How about injury trivia? Who lost a tooth while scrimmaging in the Pav? (Hint: she also suffered an ACL injury, but not at the same time.)

Hint for question #1 -- she played under two different names while a Gopher.
Hint for question #2 -- 5' 2". I have no absolute proof there was no one shorter on a Gopher roster, but I sure can't think of one.
Answer to question #3 (also not 100% sure this team had the fewest). Link is safe, from Gopher site:

 

Question 1 - Yvonne Wichert/Van Oort or Lindsey van der Wal/Taatjes?
