Hey! I’m Ashley Arnold. I’m a dedicated athlete and volleyball lover who is extremely excited about the possibility of playing volleyball on the collegiate level. I’ve been playing for seven years, since I started in REC ball as a little girl, up until now where I play at Grand Strand Juniors on the 17’s Nationals Team. I have been with the club since its start in 2008, when I played on the 15-1’s at the age of 13. I’ve played in the middle hitter and setter positions, but am currently playing outside hitter/ middle blocker and love it! I also play for Socastee High School in Myrtle Beach, SC. I have led my school’s team in blocks and kills every year since my debut on varsity in 9th grade. I was also Socastee’s Varsity team captain for the 2009-2010 and 2010-2011 school years.
While volleyball takes up most of my life I find time to achieve a great deal academically. I participate in the IB program, International Baccalaureate, at Socastee which requires all its students to have lots of community involvement and numerous college courses. I serve as Socastee’s student body secretary and am actively involved with clubs like Junior Civitans, Beta Club, and History Club. In the 2011-2012 year, my senior year, I plan to continue the IB program and all my school involvements.
Besides volleyball and education I have a passion for reading and writing. I plan to major in Journalism/ English and aspire to be a writer and publisher someday.
