About Gloria
Expert Analysis

Gloria is a name that is fully on our radar as we move forward this club season. She is a middle blocker who really stood out this last month, but is someone who is going to fly up recruiting radars over the next year based on her game play.
The first thing that stands out about Gloria is her physical presence at the net. She does really well closing blocks and pressing over the net with discipline as she never gets called in the net. She not only gets a ton of blocks but also creates problems even when not recording blocks by taking away space from hitters with how much space she takes up and how well she closes her block. As someone with her first hand experience playing against Gloria, she can really change the game for her team with this ability at the net. Elite blocker in the making would be the best way to describe her to some!
Offensively there is a lot to like about her game, she is very tall and can take a hit above a block that is in front of her. She also can run a fast tempo offensive and seems to connect well with all her setters on her team. She has the footwork and speed to develop all aspects of a middle’s offensive game so look for her to become a force on the offensive end as the season progresses.
Gloria really has all the tools in front of her to be a top level middle in her class and the state. She really showed up this last month with her game play and ability to impact the game as a middle. Expect that trend to continue over the course of the next few years as well. She is someone to get out and see if you have some time this weekend too!
