Emily has that swagger, and the skills to back it up! A pillar of her team she is an impressive player. She shows confidence and calmness on the court and is the go to player, for good reason. She can make plays happen and steps up to the occasion with solid blocking and fast transitions off the net into attack mode. She has a powerful swing that she can release tight from the net or she will take a run up for a lethal attack. She has quick reflexes to get the ball up if blocked and comes right back swinging yelling out to get it done, and does! We love to see her competitiveness but respectful play as she is a machine that racks up many points! She is the consummate player with excellent enthusiasm supporting her teammates. Not enough words!

Helmers has good swings from the pins. She is more comfortable in the St. Henry offense this year. Helmers is trying to bring a strong net presence forcing balls high and wide if she can not reach them defensively.
