Luginbuhl (*pictured) is another prospect that has been making and showcasing some impressive gains as a middle for her Elevation team. As a supporting offensive piece for Tippecanoe’s offense in 2025 at 1.7 k/s, she continues to display her ability to be highly terminal when in rhythm with her setter through quick options. She is impressive in her effort to get herself available in transition with quick reaction to come down running from the block, identify the ball, and get in and up on time. Her arm can pack power and when she has the right space, she can force it onto the defense quickly and with good range to swing towards the edges of the defense. Additionally, as she led Tippecanoe in blocking, she does really good work to get in front of opposing hitters to shut them down or earn a controlled touch so her team can transition in system.

Luginbuhl (*pictured) filled a supporting role offensively for Tippecanoe as they earned a 29-0 unbeaten record on their way to a state title. The 6’1 middle earned just over 100 total kills for a 1.7 k/s average. On the defensive side, she was the team leader at the net with a 2.0 b/m effort. She has a good offensive and physical foundation in her block-to-transition action. Look for her to get more opportunities with her Elevation team given her activity between the pins to be an option.

Luginbuhl used her size once again to make a lot of plays on the final day. She has hard line and cut shots that are tough to dig up. Luginbuhl does a great job covering the net when she is not swinging. She made some nice out of system passes and is a fundamentally sound blocker.

Luginbuhl is strong and has continued to show good balance as a middle attacker to be able to score with similar power both in front of her setter and off one foot overhead. She creates good space in her approach work to be able to control her arm effectively into space. Look for her upgrades this club season to include more fluid movement and increased impact as a key element of Elevation ‘s quicker offensive options. She led Tippecanoe’s (24-2) offense with an impressive .542 efficiency.
