As a young student-athlete in Ridgefield, Wash., Baylor volleyball redshirt junior middle blocker Alicia Andrew didn’t consider herself primarily as a volleyball player. But her perspective changed when her mother signed her up for volleyball camp as a teenager.

“I always thought basketball was gonna be my path to college,” Andrew said. “It definitely turned my head a bit. Getting to play in high school and club was really huge.”

As the years went on, she continued to concentrate and hone her craft. Playing sand volleyball with her two younger sisters grew her love for the game, and soon she knew the sport was something she wanted to purse at the next level.
