<p>Maddy is a talented setter who quarterbacks her team and improves everyone around her. Her height allows her to put up a good block; she is savvy and doesn't make many errors. Her court presence is calm, and she makes everyone on her team look good by putting them in a position to be successful. I'm looking for Maddy to crack the 3000 career assist before she graduates.</p>

<p>The game is in her blood, and she does a great job setting for the Cougars. She's already got a ridiculous 2619 career assists and has the potential to break the stats assist record. Beautiful hands, intelligent, and an aggressive setter with a mean dump. Teams have to play her honestly, or she will burn them.</p>

<p>I love her attacking the second ball, taking advantage of being a lefty setter. She's a strong setter who likes to jump set, a significant push to the pins, and moves her middles around for one-on-ones. Anna has 1536 career assists, making her capable of passing 2000 midseason.</p>

<p>Madilynn was so fun to watch at the final four last season. Another lefty setter who helps run the 6-2 offense but has some nasty power, a mean line shot, and all the tools to be a big-time college setter.</p>

<p>Payton has been a starting setter for the Dragons since the first day. She isn't flashy but knows her role: feeding her hitters. Payton likes to toss in some dumps to keep the defense honest. Payton will leave the program as one of the top setters, having already passed the 2000 career assists mark.</p>
