Team Profile: Defending DVII State Champs Calvert Senecas

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>For several seasons, Calvert has been a major force on the volleyball court among smaller schools across Ohio. Their 2025 season included a perfect 29-0 record and the coveted state crown in Division VII. They hae consistently been in the mix deep in the postseason in DIV and have maintained that impact since the field expanded to DVII. Their teams often feature depth, talent, and contributions across all grade levels, ensuring their ability to sustain their program success. Consider Calvert to be one of the favorites once again this season as the Senecas are off to a quick 4-0 start without dropping a set so far. Here are a few of their key athletes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["480860"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a947e5996edb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Like most of Calvert's best prospects, Borgio has been contributing since her freshman year. Her breakout sophomore season has led to her being the team's best offensive option for a while now as she now has just over 700 career kills, surpassing that mark in the Senecas recent win over Carey. The Santa Clara commit brings good heat as she is contributing a career high 4.1 k/s currently through an impressive .397 efficiency and 54% kill rate. Borgio also adds a career best 7.5 d/m for Calvert.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["503990"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a947e5996f55"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Another four-year contributor, Dircksen has been the primary floor leader for the Senecas the past three seasons. The 5'8 senior has now dished over 2,100 assists with consistency in her effort since her sophomore season at nearly 10 assists per set for an offense that has featured balance and depth from different positions. She benefits from steady passing and defense to get them into system often, but she does a good job a locating and creating variety in in their offense. Dircksen is committed to Tiffin.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["790586"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a947e5996fe6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Miller leads the non-senior corps for the Senecas as she is emerging as a key offensive piece for them after multiple seasons primarily contributing out of the back row. The junior outside hitter is averaging a career high 3.3 k/s, second on the team, as she is an athletic attacker with an aggressive arm on the left side. She has also increased her defensive production to 8.3 d/m. Where she has been stellar leading into her junior season is at the service line. She had consecutive seasons serving over 100 aces befor 2026 with 13 already this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["790584"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a947e599703c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The 5'9 junior middle is off to a good start as her early-season numbers are better than her career averages entering 2026. As this team's offensive strength is at the pins, Waire does a good job to get herself available with spacing and timing that helps her to swing with good purpose when she gets her opportunities. At 1.9 k/s, these improved numbers are also a product of her career high efficiency of .400. She also provides a career best 1.8 b/m.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1003072"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","fullHeight":false,"anchor":"acf-block-6a947e5997088"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bagent is a shining prospect for the Senecas as she has a lot of promise in what her game can provide when she is in rhythm offensively around her setter. With the best length on this team at 6'2, she is a lefty that can pose a lot of challenges for opponents when defending her in the middle or on the right pin. Expect her impact to grow as the season progresses as she gets more comfortable in her regular role and what she adds through a different dimension to this team overall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["806732"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a947e59970d1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rombach has been a consistent force over the past two seasons as she had back-to-back efforts offering just over 160 kills. Her career average just under two kills per set adds to this team's ability to bring potent and diverse offense each match. She is fundamentally sound in how she transitions off the net to build good momentum and get on balance to swing. Rombach's strengths include her consistency and veteran experience. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
