Strausbaugh packed a lot in a short period of time, piling up accolades in her three-year JU career. After appearing in all 27 matches as a freshman, when she led the team in kills and aces, compiled 10 double-doubles and became the program's first Freshman of the Year selection in the ASUN.
 
She followed that up with a unanimous All-ASUN First Team selection, helping the Dolphins to an ASUN Regular Season and Tournament Championship and NCAA Tournament appearance. She was also an All-Tournament Team selection and Academic All-Conference qualifier that season as well, registering 27 double-digit kill efforts, including nine straight to end the regular season, and going off for 20 in JU's victory over FGCU in the ASUN Semifinals.
 
Her final season was her best, when she was named ASUN Player of the Year and Conference Tournament MVP en route to capturing a second-straight ASUN Tournament Championship and NCAA Tournament berth. She led the conference in kills, kills per set, service aces per set, points and points per set, exploded for a career-high 29 kills at USC Upstate and joined the 1000 Kill and 1000 Dig Club that year.
 
She is the program's all-time leader in kills in a three-set match, while sitting second all-time in total kills and kills in a season.
