ARLINGTON — Senior, team captain and outside hitter Audrey Frolich, sees her role in motivating Arlington’s volleyball team in winning state.

She keeps her team energized by staying positive, she said.

“This year is going better,” she said. “We are all coming out here as a family.”

And with the Eagles’ new head coach Whitney Williams, Frolich believes that becoming state champions is possible.

“Williams is great too,” she said. “She has turned our entire program upside-down.”

“We all believe in each other and have a new mindset,” she said.

So far Frolich and the Eagles have performed like a state-bound team.

In her last game, Frolich led her team with 14 kills and 17 digs to trounce Meadowdale 3-0.

As of Oct. 9, Arlington is third-ranked in the Wesco 3A and has only lost once.

“I think were doing great, we’re improving in every game and seeing what we can fix,” she said.

She wants to improve her game as well when she gets into college. Frolich wants to attend a smaller school like Central Washington and Saint Martins University for their volleyball programs.

“Personally, I’m trying to be better at defense,” she said.
