Pulelehua didn’t play this school season but that didn’t stop her from putting in work elsewhere. As a top level player in AZ and committed to NCAA powerhouse Nebraska, Pulelehua is someone you need to go watch. She has been on the UA invite list, NTDP camp as well, and is a top recruit nationally for the class of 2027. 

Let’s start with her serve, she has one of the best float serves out there, and if you are on the receiving end of one it is a tough ball to get a 3 pass on. Most teams end up partially out of system every time she serves or she aces them with the movement of her serve. On top of her high level serve you have one of the most fearless liberos out there as she routinely will fill the hole a block leaves and take a lot of hard driven balls that most girls wouldn’t go touch. She has the mindset of not letting any ball fall regardless of circumstance and that is my favorite part (RENTLESS is how I would describe her). On top of that she is loud and plays with a lot of energy and passion. WE love seeing that from liberos. 

Overall she is a technically sound libero, who can do a lot in serving, defense, and serve receive. She raises the level of her team, and plays with a fire that is needed for all levels. It is easy to see why she is going to a high level D1, and why she is one of the best players in the state.
