Elaina ran the show at the Stock Up Showcase. She was so scrappy and smart on the court. Her ability to step onto the court with different people and still be efficient in communicating and executing on defense set her apart from the other athletes. She made some truly incredible saves in coverage and defense, but her volleyball IQ and court awareness, coupled with speed and grit, made her a top libero at the showcase.

Elaina was all over the court. She was fearless on defense and would do just about anything to keep a ball alive. She made great plays with her hands as well and was not afraid to throw herself in front of big hitters. Elaina brought a lot of energy and grit to the court and was a stud player this weekend.
