We’ve recently praised River City Jrs 16 Navy’s frontcourt attacking talent, but let’s not forget about the players who set them up. Dutcher is a key piece of that puzzle and had a big surge to end the 2024 campaign. She can work with any pass she’s given and manages to keep her hitters in rhythm during out-of-system situations. Another impactful high school season is on deck for Dutcher, who does a little of everything for Omaha Gross Catholic.

Omaha Gross Catholic gets so many valuable contributions from their sophomore setter. Not only does Dutcher distribute the ball well, but her deceptive attacking in the frontcourt has been good enough for over a kill per set on a lofty 0.341 clip. Dutcher’s surprising physicality and aggression at the net will provide a crucial building block that the Cougars will surely build upon.
