Marilyn makes the climb up the rankings with her movement from 67th into the top 50 at 48th. Marilyn makes a big jump because of the fact she could be ranked in the top 50 for two different positions. She could be a 6 rotational outside hitter in the top 50 or if she was just a libero she would also be ranked inside the top 50 but the fact that she can do both really lead to this big jump. As a pin hitter she brings a strong court IQ to hit the open spot and use her speed to her advantage. She can run a quick offense and beat a bigger block by using her tool box to score points or beat them with a fast set.

Her biggest asset besides the versatility is her ability to pass and play defense to a high level. She overall can pass and play defense all 6 rotations and when she is playing a pin, it is basically like having 2 liberos on the floor at the same time. In serve receive, she shows calm platform control and confidence under pressure, while defensively she covers a large amount of court with strong instincts and quick reactions. Her serve adds another layer to her game, consistently creating pressure and forcing opponents out of system.

With her combination of athletic upside, six-rotation ability, and competitive mindset, she has all the tools to become one of the top players in her class as she continues to develop. We would expect to see another rise in our next update at the rate she is going as well!

Marilyn is the Swiss Army Knife of this team. She is very versatile on this team and has played DS, OH, RS, RB, and now she is in the libero jersey. To have an asset like this on your team brings a ton of options for you as a coach and Marilyn excels in all areas of the game. As a libero yesterday she was all over the place, anticipating to a level of a well rounded libero and keeping her team in system with her passes on defense. She was very vocal and did a great job in serve receive taking up a lot of space with her flawless footwork. Overall she has done a great job stepping into the libero jersey and really showed she is capable of doing a lot for a open level team.
