A couple drives later, Cusick would throw his second pick of the game as Campbell’s Malachi Bannarn would pick it off in the red zone.

RAMBO: FIRST BLOCK

/in /by

Crestview senior Sidney Rambo’s main job is to stop other team’s attackers from getting the ball across the net, and Sidney is good at her job. Rambo has become a wall at the net with her blocking ability. With blocks this strong it takes away other team’s ability to be aggressive. Rambo leads the team with 39 total blocks, including 11 solo blocks. Don’t think that you can sleep on her offense either, with 78 kills on the season Rambo is a consistent threat. 

Anthony Hartwig sat down with Sidney to talk about her senior season, her future goals, and much more. Learn all about the next Rebel Volleyball Player Profile Rambo First Block.
