[Volleyball] SSU VB's Ball set to improve on promising freshman season

Becoming a top-notch defensive player, in any sport, takes more than just talent. It takes heart and a desire to bring a lunch pail at every stop.

Throughout her freshman season, Alexa Ball proved herself as the type of player who fits the mold of the Madison Smith's, the Madison Knipp's and the Stacia Martin's of the program.

Ball, however, knows that her future production will rely on maintaining the work ethic that her predecessors on the backline kept throughout their college careers.
