While she is not the most boisterous personality on or off the volleyball court, she is an exceptional performer both on the court for the University Heights Academy Blazers and in her life outside of athletics. And the, there is “that smile.” It is that combination that places UHA’s Sarah Peebles as our Chick-fil-A “Triple A” for the week.

Sarah’s accomplishments on the court are well, and duly, noted. Sarah, who is a junior this season, has been a member of the Lady Blazer volleyball team since her 8th grade season. She is a captain for the team in 2022, and was in 2021 as well.

She is among the best setters in Western Kentucky. She was named to the 2021 8th District All-District Tournament Team and the 2021 2nd Region Coaches Association All-Region Team.

In addition to the work on the court, Sarah’s work in the classroom has led to her receiving All District academic honors in 2019, 2020, and 2021. She also received All-Region academic honors for those same three seasons.

Sarah is tackling an ambitious class schedule this school year. Her class load includes AP Chemistry, AP US History, Trigonometry & AP Language & Composition.

She has also been active in the school community at UHA. Her off-court activities include: Senior BETA Club since 2020, National Honor Society since 2021, UHA Environmental Club since 2018 and serving as a club officer this year. She is also involved with the Art & Literature Club.

As for where she goes after high school, Sarah wants to eventually pursue a STEM major in college, but is still looking at career options. She does express an interest in wildlife photography and research. Oh, and game design does pose some interest as a career avenue.

When she is not buckling down for classes or volleyball competition, Sarah likes to write short stories and poetry. She enjoys tubing and surfing on Lake Barkley, longboarding, and is an avid online gamer.

And then there is that smile. Sarah is one of those people who can light up a gym, and lift the mood no matter what kind of day you have had just with a smile and a “hi.” And, in our world today, people that have that ability are a great gift to those who encounter them.

All in all, Sarah Peebles is exactly what a “Triple A’ should be and that is why we took the chance to recognize her as such this week.
