comes in as the top setter out of South Dakota and the most complete setter in this field. With over 2,100 career assists and another season ahead, she’s built a track record that shows up in how she controls every phase of the offense. She plays fast when it’s there, slows it down when needed, and keeps hitters connected no matter the pass.
What separates her is how she sees the game. She reads the block early, understands where points are available, and puts the ball there without hesitation. There’s confidence in every touch and leadership in how she carries the floor.
We can’t wait to see her take command of the gym and set the standard at the NCR RTDP training.

Beyond the technical aspects of her game, Munch brings leadership that every coach values in a setter. She communicates constantly, organizes her offense, and carries a calm confidence that keeps teammates composed during high-pressure moments. With her court awareness, distribution skills, and leadership presence, Munch projects as a setter capable of managing a collegiate-level offense. ~Theresa @prepdigdakotas
