A DAUB WELL DONE!

As she enters her final stretch as a Crestview Rebel, MacKenzie Daub has certainly made the best of her time on campus.  An outstanding student-athlete both inside and outside the lines, Kenz is taking her talents to the next level at West Liberty.  The Hilltoppers don’t only gain a top-notch volleyball player, but an individual whose sights are set firmly on accomplishing her career goals, and love for animals.

We caught up with Kenz after a tough loss to Newton Falls, but like a pro, she was able to knock the interview out of the park.

Over the past four years, there’s only one thing left to say to MacKenzie and her family.  Congratulations on: A DAUB WELL DONE!
