Continue ReadingAt 20-3 overall, the Bulldogs of Bloom-Carroll finished 13-1 in league play to claim the Mid-State Buckeye title. They are currently ranked #20 in the most recent Division II Ohio poll and are a #3 seed in Region 8. They have asserted themselves early as they are 2-0 in postseason play, winning both matches in sweeping fashion. The more impressive state is that they have given up only 25 total points over those two contests. They next face Heath for a chance at the Westerville 2 district finals match. Here are some of their top athletes.
Macy Lobb – 2023 | OH
Lobb is a 5’9 senior pin hitter that leads this team in hitting at 3.0 kills per set. She has a career average of 2.3 k/s and provides veteran experience among a core group of arms that features a couple of sophomore hitters as primary options. With the success of other attackers, her attempts are down, which in part is a reason for her increased success overall given the workload she endured last season as she is at a career high .278 efficiency.
Evelyn Brown – 2025 | MH
Brown is second on the team offensively at 2.8 kills per set and leads the team in efficiency at .371. She has over 200 kills on the season with a new career high of 18 kills set this season in a mid-season 3-1 win over Fairfield Union. With good success through various attack points around the setter, she has an aggressive approach and swings with a high elbow at the top of her jump.
Katie Marshall – 2025 | OH
Marshall also averages 2.8 kills per set and is another sophomore contributing good offense for the Bulldogs. However, she gained good experience a season ago and is contributing similar numbers with nearly 200 total kills again in 2022. Hitting at a .309 efficiency at the pins, she has good arm work in the air as she opens to the ball well and creates big torque, which allows her to develop some pace and movement upon contact.

The Bulldogs’ libero has over 1,100 career digs with averages of 21.8 and 15.6 digs per match each of the past two seasons. She reads the floor well and provides good stability as a senior veteran, which translates well to the service line as well as she is the team’s leader in total service aces with a career high 72. She made a massive impact serving in their most recent match versus Linden-McKinley with 10 aces.
Caitlyn Young – 2023 | S
Young has had a big career as a setter for this program over the last four season. She has over 2,200 career assists including 870 in 2021 and a current total of 778 in 2022, with an average of 10.8 assists per set this season. She creates good balance in her offense, which is a big strength for this team with four players averaging between 2.3 and 3.0 kills per set. She also adds eight digs per match.
