Libero/DS VAVA 16 Orange

Inspired by friends in the fifth grade to try something new, volleyball quickly became a sport Ava grew to love. She has learned to balance her time efficiently between practice, club, and school by making sure she finishes school work either in class or during her free time. She enjoys how fast-paced volleyball is and works hard to achieve goals she sets for herself. “You have to think quickly to make a smart play. It never gets boring because anything could happen. You have to learn how to be prepared and ready for it.” A memorable moment from this season was during the Big South tournament in Atlanta when her family from New Orleans came and recalled that “the games they came to were my favorite because of how my family supported me the whole time.”
