With length for days and an ability to consistently show readiness to hit, Ella immediately caught our attention. Her wingspan is impressive, and belies her defensive capabilities that require just a little tweaking for the next level. Using that length, she can defend from pin to pin with ease, and is slowly but surely working on her quick arm swing. This past fall was her first season at the varsity level, hence why I didn’t know much about her. After watching her play this season, she has all of the tools to be an M2 at the next level, and just needs the opportunity to showcase all of it (with that immense length) at the open level.
