“Playing at SoFi was amazing. My team had so much fun exploring the stadium and it was such a great bonding experience for us, and it was so nice to play with our seniors again! We played the last match of the day so it was cold and the lights were so bright I could barely see the ball sometimes! For me, I’d also like to mention that the SoFi staff was extremely kind!! Overall it was a surreal experience that im very thankful for.”

, 2025: 5’7″ Libero for Taft
Gianella, fondly known as “Gigi,” excels in one particular role—she’s a standout Libero. Watching Gigi showcase her skills on the court is truly a delight. What sets her apart is her strategic footwork as she maneuvers into passing positions, opting for precision over relying solely on angles. Gigi’s passing game is characterized by disciplined use of her platform, devoid of any abrupt or jerky motions.
Inquisitive about the seamless quality of her passes, I had a conversation with Gigi. She revealed that her smooth passing finesse is a product of dedicated and rigorous training, emphasizing the effort she has put into honing this aspect of her game.
Adding a personal touch to our conversation, Gigi shared that her dream school is CSUN, as it holds a special place in her volleyball journey—it’s where it all began for her.
