Guinn was nursing a swinging-shoulder injury when I watched her compete at the USAV Iowa Regional during late March in West Des Moines. While it took a little off of her fastball, the Solon freshman still proved very powerful and impactful at the pin. Guinn ends points with velocity and precision. She’s also smart and sharp when reading the block, putting the ball down in a number of ways with various speeds on the attack. Blocking is a strength for her, stemming from long arms and leaping ability. Keen timing also helps. Guinn is athletic, moves well laterally and picks up on opponent tendencies. Capable of playing at the opposite pin, versatility adds to Guinn’s potential to compete at the next level. She helped Solon reach a regional final as a ninth-grader in the fall with the second most kills (237, .220) on the team and 30.0 blocks.
