Even the freshmen are getting in on the varsity action. Wichita Heights has a fun collection of athletic, springy pin hitters, and Griggs fits right into that operation. She has primarily occupied the right side during early-season play, but our Stock Up Showcase brought Griggs’ multi-pin presence into the spotlight. We can also expect Griggs to rack up plenty of passing reps with her innate ball control skills. This freshman campaign is the ideal setup to the upcoming club season with KNVBC 15 Showtime, which will surely be a group to watch.

I mentioned this with another player, but it applies here as well: Griggs has an excellent contact point on her attacks. Her vertical ability allows her to elevate and get on top of the ball, creating better angles and giving her the ability to hit over or around the block. That athleticism is a real asset. She also had several strong moments in the back row, showing she can contribute defensively and isn’t limited to making an impact only at the net.
