<p>In a typical season, during a non-COVID-19 year, at the end of the fall season, all-league teams would be announced for each conference in 6A. However, certain leagues stayed away from all-league voting given the uniqueness of the season. PrepDig would <span style="font-size: 1rem;">still</span><span style="font-size: 1rem;"> </span><span style="font-size: 1rem;">like to recognize the athletes that were top performers for their team, so with the help of coaches' insight, here are our selections for the Mt. Hood Conference all-league teams, as well as the Mt. Hood Conference Player of the Year. </span></p>

<p>When deciding on the Player of the Year for the Mt. Hood Conference, Rosa was at the top of my list, and other coaches agreed. Rosa exemplifies everything that you would look for in a teammate, humble, gracious, positive, electric, driven, and talented to name a few. This season she took on a new role for the Central Catholic High School Rams and did so with grace. A starting setter for the Rams since her freshman year, she put on the libero jersey this season with pride. Her leadership, talent, and tenacity were needed in all six rotations, and the libero role allowed for that. Voted team captain, she has the ability to positively lead and influence those around her with humbleness and grace. Coach Hambley had this to say about Rosa, "She takes challenges as opportunities to grow and she always does so with a genuine spirit that is infectious to others. Honoring the game of volleyball is something that Kealani does by being the person she naturally is, it is not forced or fake, she is simply promoting the sport and the game by her humble actions and drive. She leaves it all on the court, she hustles more than anyone else every single practice." Rosa finished her senior season with 140 service attempts and 21 aces, 122 serve recieve passes, 140 assists (ranking 3rd on the team behind starting setters Stemple and Starr), and 127 digs, the most out of any on the team. </p>
