Blackburn made big strides over the course of the recent club season as she increased her footwork and physicality on both sides of the ball. The 6’3 sophomore middle is quickly advancing out of the raw quality of her skills and is gaining confidence as she is finding good offensive success in leading the Mustangs offensively at four kills per set while hitting .359. The Mustangs are 6-1 overall.
