PERSONAL: Daughter of Kellie and Kenneth Washington... Law Enforcement and Justice Administration major... chose Western because, "Its great criminal justice program. While choosing my perfect college I knew that my education had to be my first priority. Secondly, of course, I chose WIU for it's awesome volleyball program and coaches. The first time I visited I felt like I really connected with the girls, and I also felt very comfortable with the coaches. When I left, I had really reflected on my trip and I could picture myself there to further my education and advancing my career as an athlete. That's how I knew that WIU was going to be the right fit for me."
