Playing high-level club ball for the majority of her career, Miranda is a flashy, quick and tough defender that makes the incredible play look ordinary. Her feet are constant, her platform controlled, and being in the immediate area of nearly every contact made her an indispensable part of TI’s 17-1 last spring, earning a silver medal in 17 American in Dallas. I’ve only seen her in middle back, which she excels at defending, but she’s also capable of defending in all three positions and receiving serve in all three spots as well. As complete a DS as you can get, Miranda is an immediate plug-and-play option for the class of ‘26.

Boy, I was WAY off on this one. Miranda is a three-rotation defender for TI’s top 17s team, and has come such a long way in such a short amount of time. Readily holding down the middle back position for her Dawgz, Miss Bledsoe is a quick-footed and calm-platformed defender that can easily be the libero on any other squad. She makes such an impact in the three rotations she’s a part of that she’s often part of a two-person serve receive (with the libero) when she’s in. I like the relentless nature she plays with, her willingness to hit the floor when necessary, and always being around the ball in every coverage situation.
