Reagan Senda thinks differently. If one of her hitters gets blocked or misses an attack, her first instinct is to set them again. That decision says as much about her leadership as it does her volleyball IQ. Trust, communication, and confidence are themes that consistently show up in the way she runs an offense, and they continue shaping her identity as a setter.

Her growth this season has extended well beyond setting. Senda has expanded her serving arsenal to include multiple serve types while learning to identify weak passers before the whistle ever blows. When momentum shifts, she returns to her fundamentals, keeps communication flowing, and searches for the hitter who can help steady the offense. It is a thoughtful approach that reflects a player constantly processing the game around her.

Reagan describes herself as an introvert, but her answer revealed someone who is deeply invested in learning.

When she is not practicing or competing, she enjoys studying film, reading, drawing, following collegiate volleyball, and spending time with family. Volleyball does not seem to stop when practice ends. She continues to learn by watching the game and studying it from different perspectives.

As a rising freshman, Reagan is keeping an open mind about the recruiting process. California is appealing because of family connections, but she is not limiting herself. Right now, she appears focused on learning, growing, and exploring possibilities before narrowing her options later in the process.
