Sierra Johnson
About Sierra
Expert Analysis
Anthony Jones | Prep Dig Scout
Sierra stands out in a number of ways as a setter. First thing that shows up when watching her play is how many sets she can run for someone so young. She is already running a fast tempo offense at Sky and is capable of running pretty much any set from all over the floor. Her technique is also elite as defenses can’t get any reads off her to get the block where it needs to be. She does a great job never taking the easy set and is always making the right choice each time. She has the strength and capability of running a perfect set from across the floor
She also is a plus defender both with her back row and front row defense. First she isn’t afraid to dig hard-driven balls, and will take those hard line shots from other teams OH with ease, and still she transitions quickly to run the offense. As a blocker, she shows disciplined hand positioning and timing, understanding how to take away line or funnel balls to her defenders depending on the system she is in. She has a physical presence to her at the net and her frame will allow her to only get better as she gets older.
As Sierra continues to develop physically and add strength, she projects as a high-level setter who can anchor any team or club in Arizona. In a talented 2030 class, she is the standard at the setter position though and a girl to get out and watch this season.
