Expert Analysis
Michelle Bamford | Prep Dig Scout
🧠 In high-pressure moments, what’s your mindset and how do you stay composed?
I stay mentally strong by focusing on the next play. Instead of dwelling on mistakes, I ask myself what happened and how I’ll fix it. That reset mindset keeps me confident and locked in.
💡 How would you describe your role on the court, and what do you do to elevate the players around you?
As a libero, my role is to control serve receive, defend against tough attacks, and always chase down the ball with a never-give-up attitude. I pride myself on being the loudest voice on the court, guiding my team and keeping every play alive with energy and communication.
💪🏽 What’s something specific you’ve been working to add to your game this season, and why?
I’ve been working on using my hands more, especially adding set dumps as a libero. It’s something that adds another layer to my game and keeps opponents on their toes.
🌟 Off the court, how would your coaches and teammates describe you, and what personal qualities do you bring to a team culture?
They’d say I’m reliable, disciplined, and positive. I bring a strong work ethic and a friendly attitude to everything I do, and I’m always eager to learn and improve.
💥 What’s a fun fact about you that you’d want college coaches to know?
I recently moved to San Diego and I’m learning how to surf!
