Young has a lightning-quick arm swing, producing plenty of power for an under 6-foot attacker. She can also pass or set and has played a ton of volleyball with good coaching. Her high volleyball IQ, passion for the game and outright ability have her headed towards a college commitment sooner than later.

Young is one of the game changers for a Space Needle VF 17’s team that has put the PSR Power League on notice in the early part of the season. Now back at the outside position, she uses a powerful arm swing to terminate and blast kills off the block. She has wonderful hands, evident when she stepped in as a setter for North Creek and garnered all-league honors. That time as a full-time setter has increased her overall feel for the game, Young’s attacking over the first month of the club season has been precise and better than never. She has been driving the ball hard out of the pipe and dropping in the soft roll shot as a change of pace.

A talented setter/attacker who knows how to win and is an overall excellent player, Young earned first-team 4A KingCo honors this season. Asked to set for North Creek, she delivered and helped the Jaguars to an outstanding season and state trophy. Her athleticism and volleyball IQ let her make the switch with ease, and she racked up huge assist numbers on the season while showing a knack for a momentum changing dump or block. When attacking, she hammers the ball from either pin. Young has a smooth arm swing, and she produces velocity that is hard for defenses to handle.
