We could use some backcourt representation in this one. Norris High School is often known for its platoon of defensive talent, and Twarling has helped uphold the tradition for this year’s undefeated Titans. This instinctive libero is building off an exceptional club campaign with VCNebraska 16 Black and can slot into any zone along the endline with Norris. She has produced several highlight-worthy digs during the 2025 campaign, but Twarling’s steady passing platform is perhaps her greatest asset. Another LPS Classic championship has Twarling and the Titans on a meteoric rise heading into October.

VCNebraska 16 Black reinvented much of its starting lineup for this year’s club season, but Twarling was one of the vital constants.

She delivers accurate first touches as a floor defender and has become an unquestioned leader in the serve-receive pattern. Another high-stakes trip to GJNC awaits.

VCNebraska 16 Black’s defensive depth is staggering. The team has multiple athletes who can command the libero jersey, and Twarling did the honors during much of 16 Black’s stay in Minneapolis. This sophomore standout delivered clutch passes no matter which position she was playing, helping 16 Black climb to the final 16 Liberty bracket. Twarling was a stout defensive leader who could also put up smooth sets in out-of-system situations. NLQ could be the start of another postseason push for Twarling and her team.

Twarling has thrived in the middle-back area for this squad, but we’ve also seen her lock down the contrasting jersey. The Norris sophomore makes quick defensive reads and is an indispensable member of the passing formation. 16 Black was one of several VCNebraska teams playing up an age group at the Midwest Power League, preparing this team for the long grind ahead.

Her pinpoint passing was especially apparent in the right-back area–a notoriously difficult spot to handle passes. Twarling’s 2024 club success should be a prelude to an impactful prep tenure with the Norris High School powerhouse.
