What sets Noelle apart from other players in her class is her experience playing all three front row positions, her familiarity in all three spots helper her understand her responsibilities when playing a specific position. She communicates well with teammates. She has improved her vertical and speed while also adding beach volleyball to her skill set, helping Noelle improve her setting and defensive in the past year. She is looking for a program with a good culture that she can grow and strive in. According to Hammond, “I am looking for a program that is inviting, disciplined, and energetic as well as having the ability to continue my beach career.”

Noelle wants coaches to know that she may not be the loudest on the court, but she offers steadiness in both play and mood. I have previously written about Noelle: Hammond possesses all the shots in her arsenal. One time she’s powering the ball to the middle of the floor and the next time she hits line. Her ability to keep defenders guessing leads to open holes on the floor that she reads very well. Catch Noelle and her team in the American Division at Nationals.

I was able to watch Noelle in person at the Delta Regionals and she really stood out. She is an aggressive hitter that can also hit with finesse. She is always calling for the ball and dominating the net on a very talented Storm 17.1 team. She always demands the defense’s attention.
