Why UNF?
“I chose UNF because I knew for a fact that this was the college that God had intended for me the minute I stepped foot on campus. The coaches and players all shared a passion for the game of volleyball and were dedicated to the program. I knew that this was the team culture that I wanted to be a part of, and I can't imagine myself anywhere else.”

Wright’s Words on Anna
"Anna is an exceptional, highly competitive, scholar-athlete. Anna possesses the lateral speed and athleticism to go along with her great arm and jumping ability that we need in the middle to compete at a high level. Anna plays in an excellent club where we have watched first-hand the improvement over the years. We love her versatility as she is an outside in high school and has played opposite in club. We welcome Anna and her family into the Osprey Family."
