Jones has an explosive quality to her attacking skills. She can score from all three positions across the net. So far this club season she has shown some good stretches at the pins for her Elevation team. She can be a handful to defend for opponents.

Jones has such outstanding timing on her blocks that she turns back a number of them. She forms solid double blocks putting pressure on opposing hitters. Jones has the skills to become a solid hitter in the Greater Western Ohio Conference. It’s a matter of the team improving the first contacts to help make that happen. Jones had 111 blocks and 85 kills for the Firebirds this past fall.

Jones may not have made a huge presence offensively for Fairmont but she has been impressive all season defensively at the net. She led the GWOC in blocking with over 100 total blocks for a 5.0 b/m average, stellar numbers at any level. What is more impressive is that she is 5’9 with great elevation and timing to get up and over to shut down opposing attackers. The sophomore was a 1st team all-conference selection.
