<p class="text-gray-700">Coming off a well-rounded year, primed to take over this spring. Tall, using her long arms to get good height on the ball, which helps not only land points in versatile ways but also become very efficient. Her defense on the net solo blocking is intense. Mobility in the back, digging, helping the team effort, always there. This will be a good one to watch out for this spring. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Brianna excels in areas such as footwork, quickness, and awareness. She's quick at everything, lightning reactions, sharp footwork, and smooth ball setting.

<p>When you watch her, you can't stop because she is all energy all the time. Plays when a tenisty and spring you want and desire from any teammate, but truly from a middle and/or pin. She swings with power, gets off the net, and her footwork is textbook. She reads the floor well and gets side to side to block and get her hands in play. It should be in play for any school in the gym in the coming months, unless it already is.</p>
