What a senior season for Ariella! The six-rotation player has hit a couple of huge milestones early this season, recently reaching both 1,000 career kills and 1,000 career digs. You don’t achieve these numbers by luck; she is a smart and highly skilled player. She capitalizes every time she gets a chance to attack or sets up a play from the back row with a dime pass to the setter. She earns kills from both the front and back rows and maintains a great attitude. Currently uncommitted, she should definitely be on several college radars.
Current Total Kills – 232
