– Mintonette M.71
Dulgar helped her team to a solid showing at MEQ, given the top-ranked team in the country one of their toughest matches in the month of March that ended her team’s quest for an open-level bid on day two of the event. She has good quickness and can distribute the full range of the floor with good tempo and location.
Ava Jacobs – NKYVC 17-1 Tsunami
Jacobs has made good contributions for this team for a few seasons now and has settled in well to a role that sees her as a true utility athlete. She has a good skill foundation for her role as a defensive specialist, but is also called upon to add depth at setting and attacking, which she saw herself doing at MEQ when her team was down an attacker. She is undersized to swing on the pin but is smart and crafty with her arm as product of all of her experience. Her strengths are in the back row and adds good depth in passing and defense for this team.

Klika is one of the premier liberos in Ohio. At 5’8, she has good length that helps her create good range in her ball control and defense. She is a big reason this team has competed well throughout the season, with an opportunity to earn at bid at MEQ on day three as they survived some tough rounds in the early stages to finish among the top 12. She sees the floor well and has good reaction and gets angles behind the ball quickly.

– NKYVC 17-1 Tsunami
Mast has been playing the past few weeks with an injured finger but as it is on her non-dominant hand that hasn’t slowed her down as a right side attacker. Her stock continues to rise as she has improved the quality of her swings by increasing both power and range off her arm. At 6’0, she has good size to challenge defenses well when attacking and can put up a good block to apply pressure to opposing offenses.

– AVC 17 Red
The pimary setter for this team, Yacobucci does a good job of getting a variety of hitters involved to create balance in their offense, as this team finds success when they can score by committee across the net. She pursues the second touch around the floor well and has the ability locate the ball well on the move and also to get up with good deception and make an offensive play herself. They finished 9th in the open-level at MEQ.
