Big-Time Players Putting up Big-Time Numbers

I'm doing my best to get up to date on these Milestones. In this week's edition of Milestones, let's celebrate these amazing women and their volleyball accomplishments. Please DM on Twitter (X) at @PrepDigMORyan if you have a player who reaches a milestone. I would love to add them to an upcoming addition.   Kyleigh Casey – Outside - Grain Valley   The 5'9” outside hitter has had a great season and passed 500 career kills in a tri-match with Webb City and St. Mary's-Colgan at Webb City. Kyleigh put down seven and eight kills in the tri-match, pushing her over the 500 career kills.   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2024/10/Kyleigh-Casey-Grain-Valley-500-kills.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-705658" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Photo: Coach, Grain Valley Volleyball Twitter Page</figcaption></figure>   [player_tooltip player_id='238212' first='Kayla' last='Gallagher'] – Outside – Grain Valley   Kayla is breaking records at Grain Valley during her final season as the school's all-time kill leader. Kayla just passed 1000 career kills, adding to her record win with more to come. Congrats!   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2024/10/Kayla-Gallaher-Grain-Valley-1000-kills.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-705657" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Photo: Coach, Grain Valley Volleyball Twitter Page</figcaption></figure>   [player_tooltip player_id='357571' first='Chesnie' last='King'] – Setter - Grain Valley   She broke the school's season assists record against William Chrisman with 635 and counting. She set the ball to Opposite Lucy King for the record-breaking assists. The record was previously held by Bailey Bunney with 634 in 2014. Congratulations on the record-breaking season. Keep up the excellent work, and keep adding to your record.   [player_tooltip player_id='737677' first='Angel' last='Johnson'] – Middle – Clarkton   Angel walked into the Clarkton gym three years ago and will leave Clarkton as the school's all-time kill leader. Angel sits with 1328 kills with at least three games left to play. With a possible deep run in the playoffs, Angel could pass 1500 career kills.   Lacey Myers – Setter - Windsor   You would have to go way back in Windsor volleyball history to find a time when the Owls were not a tough team to beat. Lacey is setting her team up for success this season and passed 1000 career assists in September. With 1172 currently in her total, she is moving up the ranks at Windsor for assists.   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2024/10/Lacey-Myers-Windsor-1000-assist.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-705644" /></figure>   [player_tooltip player_id='475339' first='Shaye' last='Witherspoon'] – Outside - Lafayette   The super sophomore has an incredible season, passed 500 career kills last month, and currently has 535 kills to her credit. Another run to the final four, and she will inch closer to breaking her sister Maya's kill record at Lafayette.     Caitlyn Norris – Outside – Sparta   The 5'8” outside is the top attacker for Sparta and recently passed 500 career kills.   [player_tooltip player_id='493057' first='Rilyn' last='Sherwood'] – Outside – East Buchanan   Rilyn was one of the stars on EB when they made the final four a couple of seasons ago. In her final season, she is lighting up the opposing teams and has a Class 2 leading 409 kills, pushing her career total to 1138, passing 1000 in September.   [player_tooltip player_id='170047' first='Danielle' last='Moore'] – Opposite - Howell   Danielle is one of the top opposites in the state, and the numbers she is putting up are ridiculous. Another brutal opposite from Howell that will leave the program as one of the all-time greats. The hard-hitting big blocking right pin passed 1,000 career kills earlier this season and is now at 1130 for her career.   [player_tooltip player_id='170045' first='Ava' last='Robart'] – Outside – Potosi   If the reports I'm hearing are accurate, Ava is out for the remainder of the season and her high school career. Ava has put Potosi on the map for volleyball and passed 1500 career kills, ending the season with 1606 career kills. I hope your recovery goes well and we can see you play at the next level. You are the face of Potosi volleyball.   Gracianaelle Ladduceur – Middle - Bayless   Bayless is not a household name for volleyball, but Gracianaelle probably should be. She is a fantastic attacker with great athleticism and can fly out of the gym. When she gets a hold of the ball, it becomes a kill. Congrats on the 500 kills.   <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2024/10/Gracianaelle-Ladouceur-Bayless-500-kills.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-705645" /></figure>   [player_tooltip player_id='737663' first='Lexi' last='Ferguson'] – Setter - Mid-Buchanan   Lexi has been running the offense for the Dragons since her first year. In September, she passed 1500 career assists, is now at 1963, and will pass 2000 this week.
