COACH AALAND SAYS: “Ashley brings the true Division II model of a student-athlete to Fort Lewis next fall. She is a very strong student in the classroom as well as an exceptionally hard worker on the volleyball court. She will add to the Skyhawk volleyball program immensely by her performance on and off the court. Ashley will play outside and middle for us. Her volleyball IQ and versatility will enhance the intensity of the team on a day-to-day basis.”
