Grant has the size to make a difference in the middle for A.62 and the Generals. Grant can make a lot of things happen on ones. She locates well even using her off (left) hand to surprise defenders. She can also push balls to various parts of the court and puts down overpassed balls. Grant still needs some work on her arm swing and consistency and she could become a strong all-around player.

Grant may not have quite developed the consistency the Generals hoped for this season, but it could come in the next two seasons. Grant has the size to turn into a dominant middle. Lafayette has strong outsides so it opened up a number of one-on-one opportunities for Grant. She can deposit balls to the back row quickly. She also does a good job getting touches on if not blocking balls. Grant has a nice arm swing. However, a quicker one could take her to that desired next level. Grant had 85 kills, 32 assisted blocks and eight solo blocks for Lafayette this past fall.

Grant has been working on different ways to dominate the net for the A.51 team. Her enthusiasm on the court is contagious with her teammates. She does a good job reading hitters and setting up double blocks to at least get touches on the ball. She goes up strong and has a great follow-through to send balls screaming to the floor. She’ll be tough for years to come if she keeps developing.

Grant has the potential to do some big things for the Generals if she becomes more consistent. She reads hitters well setting up blocks to take away the strong shots. Grant has solid follow-throughs on her hits and displays great enthusiasm on the court. Grant played a role in helping the Generals finish 20-11 this past season that included wins over eventual 3rd Region champion Owensboro and a 29-win Highlands team on the first day of the Halloween Smash.

Grant is showing a lot of potential for the Generals, especially at the net. Lafayette head coach Taylor La Mantia is trying to get more consistency out of Grant and Grant showed she is ready to take those steps. Grant uses her size to read hitters’ tendencies and set up blocks to take away those strengths. She forces opponents to hit over her making it easier on the Lafayette defensive specialists. She had some nice follow-throughs and motivates her teammates with her excitement after the Generals score points. Grant said she’s trying to improve at hitting balls off any kind of set, especially ones out of system.
