She has received multiple college offers and should continue to receive more.
Victoria Brake Victoria Brake 6'0" | OH Bishop Carroll | 2021 State KS , 6’0”, Bishop Carroll (Ranked No. 34) – Bishop Carroll historically has a solid volleyball team and that should be no different in 2020. Brake is a tall player who will be leaned on this season.
Austin Broadie Austin Broadie 6'0" | OH Trinity Academy | 2021 State KS , 6’0”, Trinity Academy (Ranked No. 39) – Broadie can flat out jump which makes her dangerous on both volleyball and basketball courts.
