Edwina (Arnold) Anthony is among the greatest volleyball Bulldogs of all time. She easily stands as the school's all-time leader in career solo blocks with 117 of them – 34 more than the next-closest Bulldog. In terms of single-season solo blocks, three of the top 10 campaigns in school history belong to Arnold, including the top two.

A 1985 team captain with the Bulldogs, Arnold's success carried over into her post-MSU playing career. Arnold is a retired Army Colonel whose life has been dedicated to leadership and service. While in the armed forces, Arnold's volleyball career continued as she was a captain for the 8th Army team in Korea in 1988 and for the All-Army squad at Fort Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania from 1991-92.

In Arnold's retirement, she has leveraged her background to inspire the next generation through volunteer work in the classroom and on the volleyball court, working with students in multiple states including Alabama, Georgia, Kansas and Texas.
