Another Munciana athlete who caught my eye was rising sophomore Maylynn Morrison Maylynn Morrison 5'8" | OH/RS Monroe Central | 2029 State IN . At 5’8″, she plays with a confidence and maturity that is well beyond her years and height, and she has the type of all-around skill set that makes her incredibly valuable. Offensively, she is extremely difficult to read because of her unique roundhouse arm swing, allowing her to create different angles and keep defenders guessing. She is a true athlete who moves well laterally, plays fast, and brings the same aggressive mindset to both offense and defense. Whether she is attacking, defending, or chasing down a tough ball, she has a knack for making plays. I could see her developing into a strong six-rotation outside hitter, while her athleticism and ball control would also translate well to a defensive specialist or libero role. She was one of the sneaky-good players at the showcase—the type of athlete who may not always demand attention right away but consistently finds a way to impact the game and draw your eyes to them.

Well-rounded, smart and athletic, Maylynn’s stock is rising while playing for one of the smaller, regional clubs in Indiana. Able to terminate from both pins and do a little of everything well, Miss Morrison makes up for her height differential with athleticism, a high volleyball IQ and an innate ability to score points no matter where the ball is set. I’d like to see a bit more from her all-around game, as most of the highlights I’ve seen of her are on the attack. No matter, the numbers don’t lie—-she’s a key figure on both her club and high school teams on both offense and defense, and will be stronger and faster as she gets older.
