Coming in ranked #3 for the class of 2024 in the defensive specialist/libero position, Makua showed why she is one of this class’s top ranked liberos during Regionals. Although she went out with a potential concussion during NPJ 17 National’s last match against OJVA 17-1, Makua controlled her team’s back row alongside Daviscourt up until that final match. Makua’s ability to make quick and effective reads on defense really set her apart as a back row player during the tournament.
