Laurissa Richards brings advanced platform control and defensive anticipation to the back row. Richards reads hitter shoulders early, allowing her to shade cross-court angles before contact is even made. Her serve receive mechanics are compact and repeatable, keeping passes inside the setter’s window and allowing full tempo offense to operate.

At Triple Crown, expect Laurissa Richards to be tested by heavy pace and aggressive float serving — and expect her to handle it. She absorbs velocity without overcorrecting her platform angle and transitions quickly into coverage responsibilities. Richards will extend rallies and create second-chance opportunities in high-pressure matches. ~Theresa @prepdigdakotas
