The Confident and Spirited Karly Basham

When Karly Basham decided to enter a crowded college volleyball transfer portal, she wasn't exactly sure if it was the right decision, but she took a leap of faith and landed with a university that allows her to express herself – and does her personality ever shine through.

Basham has a profound passion for dancing and that's one simple thing that gets her in a zone, which subsequently allows her to get her mind right and locked in for volleyball games.

"Me being able to dance, that's an example of how Washington State, the staff, and the team has brought that side of me out, whereas at A&M, I had to hold that back, so I embrace it now," Basham said.
