Zoe recognized early how the block was taking away her first option and made a shift that opened the court back up.

That ability to move away from predictable swings and create new scoring options is what allows hitters to stay efficient when the game tightens.

Her growth this season shows up in serve receive, where she has taken ownership of first contact.

Off the court, her experience as a student coach shapes how she communicates and supports her team.

Her path continues with SCSN tournaments, SCSN Championships, and a Hawaii end-of-season tournament, where that expanded scoring range will continue to be tested.
