Coach’s Comments: “Recognized as one of the nations best setters, the fall of 2004 provides many new challenges for this gifted Crusader. Has all the ability, confidence and skill to take her entire game to an even higher level. Can deliver the ball anywhere on the floor. She will be asked once again, to be the core of the entire offense by directing a smooth, well-run offensive machine. Maintains excellent foot speed, quickness and deception with the ability to attack from her setting position. Has a very competitive style of play with the ability to make others better around her. A true leader on the court who performs best in pressure situations. The element I like most about Ashley is her never-ending commitment to improve her game. She is unselfishness as a player and leads by example, a quality every setter and floor general must have. Crusader fans have come to expect great performers at the setter position, year in and year out. Expect another banner season out of this junior standout.".
