She moved from our watch list to 161 in the ranking. This is based on Jeremy’s analysis. She shows the versatility to set or play libero. As a lefthander she could be effective as a 5/1 setter.

Watching her video she has soft, strong hands, which allows her to flick off back sets with the same motion she uses for her front sets. She also distributes her sets to all areas of the court, using the three meter set to her advantage.

Definitely a player to put on the radar. Also, four players on this team are ranked in our top 100, middle Lyla Shannon Lyla Shannon 6'1" | MB/RS Ocean Lakes | 2027 State VA (#31), libero Ryann Bothoff (Ole Miss Commit, #24), left side Avery Osler Avery Osler 6'0" | OH/DS/L Frank W Cox | 2027 State VA (#29), and left side Benisa Moore Benisa Moore 5'7" | OH/DS/L Grassfield | 2027 State VA (#71). She definitely has the talent to achieve success.

This is a fun one for me, a player that emailed me and asked me to stop by and give her a look during the week. Just so happened she was playing a couple courts away and right in my main path so I dropped by to watch a couple times. She’s a lefty setter running a 6-2 for 757 out of Southern VA and was fun to watch. She was in playing DS when I first got there so I got to see some good defense and solid passing, it’s not uncommon to see Setters and DS moving to the other position, so I didn’t think much of it, then she went back in to set in the next rotation and I got to see some good athleticism, and solid hands when she was setting. As a lefty setter, they tend to have that fun one handed dump, which I got to see once too. Serving she had a nice little run with some good spot serving. Overall, it was a good watch, and someone that should be making the official ranking list at the next revision. I’ll have a little more on her later on with a setter themed post I have in mind.
