Expert Analysis
Melissa Smith | Prep Dig Scout
When it comes to potential as a freshman, Elena has it in DROVES, especially at the middle blocker position. As a former Big Ten MB, I know a talented middle in the making when I see one and this young lady is just that. It is clear that Swanagan is newer to the game, but she has all the makings of an elite player: height, length, athleticism and DRIVE. My favorite part of the Showcase was when everyone split up into their positions and Elena was the only middle there. So instead of just going with the pin hitters, she chose to get one-on-one middle blocker training time with a coach. That spoke volumes to me of what this young lady is capable of and the determination she has. Even though she is a bit raw, she puts up a big block, which will likely continue to get bigger as she grows and develops. Elena is already terminal when attacking, but the sky is the limit as she learns spacing with the setter and transition footwork. I CANNOT wait to see what the future holds for this young lady!
