Norvell did a lot of setting for the Warriors last fall, but continued to be an option hitting with the emergence of a freshman there. Norvell's versatility landed her a scholarship to the University of South Alabama of the Sun Belt Conference. Where there is a hole on the floor, Norvell will do what it takes to send balls there or even set up her teammates to do so. She has good all-around form leading to hard hits from both the front and back row. It's hard to predict where her shots are going. She has an excellent jump off the floor and can make nice mid-air adjustments. Norvell even angles balls off blockers when necessary. As a setter, Norvell can reach into the air and back tip balls. She can do all kinds of sets including back sets. She can also throw in sneaky setter dumps. Norvell puts herself in solid blocking position reading hitters. Norvell also has nice low line drive serves that throw off defenders. Norvell had 363 kills, 18 solo blocks, 25 assisted blocks, 514 assists, 291 digs and 94 aces helping the Warriors to a 12th Region semifinal appearance last year.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["531308"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Haynes is a big reason Somerset won a school-record number of games this past fall. Haynes moves her feet well putting herself in good position to start Somerset's offensive rhythm as a sound passer. Haynes can leap high and hit from both pins consistently finding ways through blocks. Haynes will throw in tips when needed. The thing that improved the most last year was her serving slightly more than doubling her ace total from her sophomore year. Haynes had 229 kills, 281 assists, 317 digs and 49 aces helping Somerset to a 21-12 record and a spot in the 12th Region Tournament this past fall.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["535242"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_player_featured_image":537148,"_player_evaluations_2_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Travis burst onto the scene as a freshman giving the Maroons consistency at the setter spot and a nice net presence. Travis can do both short and long cross sets putting teammates in position to put balls down. Travis reads hitters well making them have to go over her. Travis consistently moves her feet on defense and dives for balls. Travis often puts her arms on balls popping them in the air to keep plays alive. Travis also helped out the Maroons with her impressive serving. Travis had 611 assists, 68 aces, 270 digs, 16 assisted blocks, 13 solo blocks and 48 kills this past year.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["477143"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Marsh leads West Jessamine's best chance at another 12th Region grown having picked up her play taking on a bigger role in West Jessamine's 5-1 offense.
