6 Middles Who are Owning the Net at Little Big South

In a tournament as deep as Little Big South, the middle blockers who stand out are the ones who control space, close seams, and stay active beyond the stat sheet. These six middles consistently influenced rallies through discipline, timing, and physical presence at the net.    Caddie is a tone-setter in the middle for Metro. She competes hard at the net, presses over blocks, and stays aggressive against experienced pin hitters. Her presence is helping Metro weather tough rallies and stay composed as a unit. ~ Samantha Fitzgerald @BenchtoBeast     Nadia shows strong timing and awareness throughout the day. She closes blocks with purpose and stays available offensively, especially in transition.
