Ashley’s number 1 choice for college was Stanford University. Stanford wanted Ashley to come for her visit in the spring of her senior year in high school. Ashley wanted to make a decision and sign her commitment letter during the early signing period in the fall of her senior year so that meant Stanford was not an option. She narrowed her choices to Duke University, Pennsylvania State University, University of Connecticut. Ashley’s mom really liked Duke – basketball was on the rise, the education was great, and it was driving distance from Pittsburgh. Ashley was having a tough time making the decision between UConn and Duke. Her AAU friends Maria and Diana had already committed to UConn so she decided to follow them there. Ashley’s freshman year at UConn started out great. She consistently got playing time until she was injured her elbow in a game against Miami. Since it was only the fifth game of the season she was granted a red-shirt. In 2002 the Huskies went undefeated and won the National Championship. They would go on to also win the 2003 and 2004 Championships. During the 2003 season Ashley earned Big East Defensive Player of the Year award. She graduated from UConn with a bachelor’s degree in Marketing and Economics.
Battle was selected by the Seattle Storm at No. 5 in the 2005 WNBA Draft, but played in only two games that year. After the 2005 season, she was signed by the New York Liberty. In 2006, Battle played in thirty-three games and developed a reputation as a key defensive weapon for the Liberty. In 2007, she played in thirty-four regular-season games, averaging 22 minutes per game, 7.4 points per game, 3.7 rebounds per game, and 1.0 steals per game.
