Olivia Pitts was a standout offensive presence for Falcon, bringing a powerful swing and the ability to score in a variety of situations. Pitts came out strong with six kills and three blocks while hitting an efficient .250, making an impact on both sides of the net. The junior middle, committed to Mississippi State, plays with a high contact point and physicality that makes her difficult to slow down once she gets going. Pitts will be a key piece for Falcon this season and should continue to be one of their go to offensive options in big moments.

Pitts covers an impressive amount of ground for a middle. She moves efficiently from pin to pin, closes quickly on blocks, and does a great job getting above the net, especially when running the slide. Furthermore, her movement creates opportunities for those around her by forcing blockers to respect her offensive presence. Pitts continues to show why athletic middles are such valuable pieces in today’s game.
