COACH GRAYSTONE SAYS

"Amber played last season for UT-Permian Basin, and will join WT this fall as a sophomore. Although primarily a defensive player, Amber can also fill in at outside hitter and probably set with a little training. Amber has a great personality and work ethic, and will fit in really well with the rest of the team."
