Expert Analysis
Jesse Etter | Prep Dig Scout
Baker is a blocking and scoring threat from the right side for Dakine 17 National Pink; the team finished 4th overall in the 17 Open at the PNQ- another awesome finish for this tough squad. Baker just keeps winning big, both in club and with Curtis during the high school season. The 6’0″ RS has strong hands and a great wingspan; when Baker cashes in a stuff block, her team feeds off the energy. A terrific quality Baker shows as a blocker and an attacker is patience. She is always up on time on the block, not early if a hitter is off the net or dealing with a bad set. As a hitter, she can work to a fast or slow tempo set and control her swing, taking something off and finding a corner or hitting a rocket when she has the opportunity.

Baker was impressive for Curtis, helping the Vikings to a terrific season this fall. The RS/MB is a clutch performer; she consistently makes the big play at the most crucial moments in a match. Baker has a strong swing and is accurate; she doesn’t spray the ball all over the gym, even when she takes a wicked swing or it’s a difficult set. She will play club ball with Dakine this season.

Baker has continued her outstanding play for Dakine after a terrific school season for Curtis. The 2027 prospect handles the right side for Dakine 16 Surf, and she has helped her squad get out to a tremendous start, including a 9-0 record at the NW Juniors MLK Tournament. Baker cleans up anything tight at the net with excellent timing and power. She has terrific length, and attackers are forced to adjust due to her block.

Baker had a coming-out party this season and helped bring power, energy, and a terrific block to an already-loaded Curtis team. Her contributions were part of the reason the Bears held up the first-place trophy, and nothing pumped up the team more than when Baker roofed a ball straight down for a point. She was on point at the state and had two more years to chase another title.
