Aryah Ross Aryah Ross MB Central McLean | 2028 State ND brings another type of value to the middle: disruption. Not every good block ends with the ball straight down. Ross can affect a rally by getting into the hitter’s line, taking away space, and putting up a touch that gives her back row another chance to make a play. That presence matters, especially against teams that want to establish their pins early. Staying active in transition also gives Ross a chance to turn defense into offense instead of watching the play after she comes off the block. Ross shows why evaluating a middle goes beyond stuff blocks; her ability to disrupt swings and create playable touches can change rallies. ~Theresa@prepdigdakotas
