Another great southern AZ setter, Callen is someone who really is going to turn some heads in her junior season next year. What we have noticed is that she shows strong command in-system, consistently delivering a clean, hittable ball with reliable tempo to both pins and a willingness to involve her middles. Her hand placement is efficient and repeatable (which is a trait all setters need), and she does a good job getting her body squared to target.

Another thing she does well is that defensively, she competes hard every rally and consistently makes plays with her court awareness and reaction time. She is vocal in serve receive, organized in transition, and brings natural leadership qualities that teammates respond to immediately. Her serve has become a legitimate weapon, capable of creating runs with aggressive placement and changing speeds. She can set, serve, and play defense which as a setter to do at a high level makes her team all the better and brings the talent level up!

Long term, her upside remains extremely high because of both her physical tools and understanding of the game. She plays with confidence, energy, and a mature approach that separates her from many players in the 2028 class and is someone you need to get out and see!
