A tough day 3 at GJNCs in 15 Open led to a 21st place finish with Evie at the helm of serve receive and floor defense. There’s a reason she was the captain of this overachieving squad this past spring, as the first contact in all situations were spot on when Miss Ellis was in charge. Gritty, tough and athletic, Evie’s ability to get to every ball—-and I mean EVERY ball—-kept this team on the winning side of things for at least 75% of their matches this past spring. In short, you could do a lot worse than Evie when committing to a defensive specialist next summer, but why would you settle for less when you can have one of the best in the class?

Already familiar with high-level training and play, Evie is a quick and smart defender that can play any of the back row positions with an equal amount of anticipatory acuity. Her athleticism allows her to get to nearly every ball within ten feet of her, her arms stay quiet while her feet do the work, and most of the movements she makes on defense look second-nature.
