On the coaching side, Frazier has inspired her teams over the years through hard work and dedication through coaching. This year Frazier took the women's team to the Northwest Athletic Conference (NWAC) held in Tacoma, WA where they placed third.

"Frazier went above and beyond this year to take such a young team of girls and turn them into not just champions, but a family as well.. she also gave me a second chance at the sport I love, and I think I speak for all her former players that Frazier is the type of coach you just want to make proud" said current sophomore player Samantha Rouleau.

At the end of each season regardless on how the team finishes, Frazier hopes she instills discipline, good character, and commitment in her players.

"Things like being a good teammate, pushing yourself, understanding that goal setting is important in every aspect of life will help these girls be successful in their future careers" said Frazier.

The women's volleyball team is currently in the off-season, and Frazier's main focus is to make sure her team is on track and focused on academics.

"It's very important, especially from the first-year freshman to stay goal oriented, and to not fall behind in the classroom" said Frazier.  

On her free time, Frazier loves staying active in the community by running and exercising. She also enjoys time with her family and watches her kids play sports. Her favorite movie of all-time is Top Gun because it "pushes the limits."
