Berry was the engine that drove the Wenatchee freight train for the last several seasons. The 4A first-teamer will potentially play at the University of Washington as a defender and give the Huskies another in-state star for fans to root for. Her grit and competitiveness are second to none, and she is the top-ranked setter in the class.

Berry is a recent commit to the University of Washinton. The senior setter plays incredible defense, pushes the ball around the court accurately, and is one of the most competitive players in the gym. Berry is a playmaker who can flash an incredible defensive play on one rally and then win a joust against a tall middle blocker on the next ball.

Berry was impressive defensively out of the setter position at the Expo. Coaches highlighted her ability to cover tips and off-speed shots and her overall footspeed and range. The Wenatchee junior stayed dynamic in her setting, consistently utilizing a jump set to keep the defense honest and the tempo high. It was a tough trip over the pass for our Central Washington athletes, we appreciate all of them making the trip!

Berry is an athletic powerhouse, who plays much bigger than her listed size. Wenatchee is poised for a tremendous season, and the former libero will be relied upon to quarterback the team on the court. Watching her play during club and this summer, you would think she never played anything but the setter spot, until she pulls out a crazy dig chasing down a ball no on has any business getting to. Berry has the strength to push the ball to the pin from tough positions and angles on the court, giving her hitters every opportunity to score.
