I have been playing club with Darla for two years and it was exciting that we both had the opportunity to come here. We have connections on and off the court.

My mom used to coach me in volleyball when I was younger. She used to do everything for me. I am a mommy's girl.

I am very excited (about) conference. I think we have some good matches under our belt and I know we will be ready for (it).

I had been waiting to receive an award all four years of playing high school volleyball and to have six seniors (make) the first team all-southwestern league – it was really special.

I thought it was going to be hard-core weight training and sprinting everyday just to make sure you were in shape. It is actually really fun because all the girls get along really well and we all cheer each other on.

I am still trying to clean up my hands and learn my new teammates. (Me) and the team are still learning.
