(Atlantic) Atlantic Head Volleyball Coach Michelle Blake expects 40-45 players to report to preseason workouts on Monday. The Trojans return eight seniors from last year’s squad.
The eight seniors are Abby Smith, Aubrey Guyer, Ava Rush, Lex Noelck, Jada Jensen, Chloe Mullenix, Keira Olson, and Brooke Vandevanter.
Last season Smith led the team with 207 kills, Jada Jensen, 148, Lexi Noelck, 144, Guyer, 134, and Mullenix, 125.
Not only do the Trojans return experience across the net, but they also return height. Middle Hitter Aubrey Guyer is 6’0, Lexi Noelck, Chloe Mullenix, and Keira Olson all stand five-feet-eleven inches tall.
Coach Blake mentioned defense as one point of emphasis this season.
The Trojans open the season on their home floor on August 25 against Des Moines Roosevelt.
