My name is Ava Crawford. I am a 5'5 high school volleyball player. I live the small town of Brinkley, Arkansas, and go to school in Palestine-Wheatley, where you do not get a lot of opportunities to be seen by recruiters in person, which is why I am super thankful for the NCSA program. I am 16 years old and graduate in the year 2027, and I have been playing volleyball since I was 11 years old. I played several season of club ball and will be traveling to Italy next summer to play for Team U.S.A. I would say I'm very versatile when it comes to playing a position on the court, but of course we all have our preferences. I am currently a setter and outside hitter but can often be seen all over the court. I am in my Junior year and was named All-Conference my Sophomore year. I'm always trying to figure out ways to be the best version of myself for my teammates whether that's skill wise or metal wise and how to push us all to be the best versions of ourself.
