About Ariella

As a libero/ds, I pride myself on being the heartbeat of the defense—relentless, fearless, and always in motion. I'm the type of player who refuses to let the ball hit the floor without a fight. Whether it's full-extended dives, chasing down shanked passes, or flying into the bleachers, I give everything to keep the rally alive. I have always been a leader/strong minded since I was a little girl. I make sure the vibe and the atmosphere on the court is up beat and a good vibe no matter who is having a bad day. Teamwork is so important on and off the court and I manage my emotional intelligence as best I can. I have been a volunteer for my grammar school VB team and I help out at the local park district.
