I know I already highlighted Chelsea in my setter write-up, but I can’t emphasize enough just how talented she is. Her ability to control the court is truly next-level—comparable to what I often see at the collegiate level. She plays with incredible poise, setting at a fast tempo that keeps defenders on their heels. Her smooth hands and quick decision-making make her a standout on the court. I have no doubt that Chelsea’s leadership and skill will continue to drive her toward success.

Chelsea is a walking highlight reel. She is incredibly tough to read, often leaving the net wide open for her hitters by deceiving blockers with her sneaky sets. Her fast-paced setting keeps defenses on their heels, and she has a natural ability to connect smoothly with her middles, regardless of the pass she’s given. Beyond her technical skills, Chelsea brings relentless energy to the court, never hesitating to chase down any ball. Her presence and playmaking ability make her a true difference-maker.

Zentz had really good location with her sets and when that is consistent you become the setter every hitter wants to attack off of. She is technical and has good form. Zentz also plays a very clean and efficient game which you don’t always find in young setters. She feeds her hitters and moves the ball around to utilize as many attackers as possible. Zentz is definitely one you should keep an eye on.
