I love easy points and none come easier from a positive standpoint than the service ace.   A hard-hit serve, a serve with wicked spin, a nasty short change-up serve, or a serve grazing the net can all end up scoring a quick point.   Here is a look at the leaders in service aces across the state as the volleyball season is quickly approaching sub-state week.   Harlee Randall, 6'0”, MH, Flinthills, ‘ 25   Randall has 63 service aces unofficially leading the state among those school reporting stats. Randall also has 298 kills this season and is closing in on the 1,000-career kill mark.
