Kendall makes one of the biggest jumps for any player, and especially for the libero position by jumping from 38 all the way to 23. Watching Kendall play you see a libero who has an extremely high IQ. She anticipates very well and moves with such ease you are impressed with how she doesn’t seem panicked at all. Her footwork is top level which makes her platfrom always in a good position whether in defense or serve receive. Her technique is amazing and repeatable each play and opposing teams have to do their best to avoid her because if she even touches the ball, her team will be ins system.

Besides being able to play defense, cover well, and be a super loud presence she also has one of the biggest assets a libero can bring and that would be her hands and ability to run an offense from the libero position. She has very soft hands for a setter and that leads to her pin hitters being able to be in system even when the setter is taken out. It has helps her in serve receive as she is able to get great push on the ball when she needs to bail and use her hands.

A top level libero in this class and makes the jump all the way to libero #2. She has all the intangibles needed to be elite, and colleges will soon take notice of her rise in AZ.

Kendall is going to be a special libero as she gets older and one to watch from the class of 2029. Watching her play it is obvious to see what makes her a great libero.

One of my favorite things is the fact that she covers and transitions so well. She could be passing a ball from zone 5 and make it to behind the hitter on the right side all in the same sequence. She has lightning quick footwork and amazing lateral movement that shows up all over her film. Most impressively for me for a libero is how much energy and excitement she brings to her team. She seems like the emotional leader for her club team as she will just be loud and energetic regardless of the score.

She does well with her ability to read hitters on defense and anticipates very well to get her feet into a good defensive position to pass ball for her team to be in system. She didn’t get beat at all any time we were watching her play and teams will mostly avoid moving forward is my guess. She also brings a good jump float serve that is only to get better and faster as she gets older but at the moment is really effective with her placement to put it on the worst passer each time.

We are excited about having Kendall in our rankings and think she is going to turn into a high level libero one day for the state of AZ.
