A former La Quinta volleyball standout has a resume in the sport most only dream of. The 2014 graduate played NCAA Division II Indoor Volleyball but recently made the jump to Division I Beach Volleyball.

The former Blackhawk is home for the summer, training for one of the biggest tournaments of her career.

Whether it’s sand from the beach or from the desert, you can find Ciara Reistad in it.

It’s been two years since Reistad dove into beach volleyball at San Jose State University.

“It’s just something I liked more, beach volleyball,” Reistad explained.
