Ann jumped from 30 to 24 in the rankings. She played for Columbia Volleyball Academy. At her skill level she would thrive at one of the more competitive clubs such as Metro or Paramount . However, sometimes it is better to start on a competitive team rather than be a role player on a super team. Ana has committed to George Washington.

Last year she played for the undefeated (25-0) Howard, who knocked off North Hagerstown in the Class 3 Maryland state championship. That win earned Howard the number one high school ranking in the DMV area. Prior to that North Hagerstown was the three time defending state champion. In that championship match Anna finished second on the team in kills with 16.

While the Lions will lose their top offensive player McKenna Brown, Anna will carry the offensive load this coming season.

She had a breakout season for an undefeated Howard high school team this past year, leading them to the Maryland Class 3 State Championship. She stands 5’11” but she appears to have some additional growth left in her. When the season ended, she finished third on the team in kills, In the championship match against three time defending champ North Hagerstown she blistered the court with 16 kills.

Currently, she appears to play just three rotations. For Howard she totaled only 7 service attempts with one ace and one error. Only a class of 2028 she still has a lot of opportunity to improve on the other areas of her game.

Perhaps a project but one that is worth a look.
