Rommes executes a really well timed setter dump that keeps the opposing blockers honest and paying attention to her. She does a great job moving the ball around to get all her attackers involved. Rommes led the Warriors to a 4th place finish while Caledonia hit a .398 in their quarterfinal win over Concordia Academy. Rommes tallied 108 assists, 36 digs, and 7 kills during her 3 matches at the X.

Kenning caught my attention by taking a strong swing down the line. She led the Cardinal attackers with 27 kills in the consolation semifinal win over Wadena-Deer Creek. Kenning followed that performance up with 21 kills in the consolation final. She also combined for 41 digs over their 3 matches.

Farasyn was picking up everything at the X. Offense gets a lot of glory and praise but Redwood Valley’s defense was pretty studly. Farasyn had over 40 digs in their 3 matches and consolation runner-up finish.
Gravelle started out on fire and was almost impossible to stop. She knows how to run a really dynamic slide route that makes defenders nervous. Even with WDC taking a pair of losses she hit impressive numbers because she is so effective. In the quarterfinal, the freshman recorded 19 kills while hitting a .385. In the consolation semifinal against Annandale, Gravelle tallied 20 kills and added 3 aces. She’s also a very effective blocker, recording 5 blocks in their 2 matches.
Ivy Newville

Newville was making really smart plays at the net over the course of the state tournament appearance. She led the Beacons in kills and blocks in both of their matchups at the X. Newville had 13 kills while hitting .333 against Caledonia in the quarterfinals. She followed that with 9 kills and 3 blocks in their consolation semifinal against Redwood Valley.
