K’Lei is a dominate player in her own right and should really take off this school season. She has had a successful Freshman campaign both in school and club and is only going to get better with age in the coming season. For starters she has excellent length and athleticism, allowing her to play above the net and attack at a high contact point, which renders a lot of blockers useless. She has a physical arm swing and has shown the ability to score through, over, and around blockers. She can create matchup problems with her combination of size, reach, and offensive confidence as she hits from all over the floor. She is a middle, right side, outside, shoot make her a libero I bet she could figure it out and do it well.

Having a player who can bring a lot to the team with just one area of their game says a lot but K’Lei also does well with her defense at the net. She might score just as many points with her offensive game as she does with her defensive game as well. She is high up on the net, routinely taking away hitters best angles and shutting down the other teams better hitters. K’Lei is a high-ceiling pin attacker with the physical tools to become a dominant front-row scorer and a cornerstone offensive piece as she progresses through high school and club competition this season. She is for sure a name to know as we head into the fall season.
