SINGLING OUT SHINGLEDECKER

/in /by

BROOKFIEKD OH- Last season, Brookfield was so close to a district championship. They made a great run through the bracket winning their way to the district championship game before falling to Western Reserve. Being that close to their goal, and falling short has made the entire returning roster that much more hungry to get back, and finish the job.  Senior Lauren Shingledecker leads that charge for the Warriors with her fellow seniors this season.

Lauren is a player who will always pour everything she’s got in to her team. She brings a never say die attitude that has helped the Warriors battle some adversity this season.  There have been several times already this year where Brookfield could have easily slid in to a long losing streak.  It is players like Lauren who refuse to let that happen. She has brought tremendous leadership to the table that has given her team a tenacity that won’t stop. You never know, you might just see the Warriors punch another ticket to a championship before it’s all said and done.

YSN’s Anthony Hartwig caught up with Lauren this week to get a peak into her senior season. They talk about the energy of the team, playing with her cousin Logan, and so much more. Prepare for battle Warrior fans, the latest Brookfield Volleyball Player Profile is here! Only on YSN.

STACY STEPS IN, AND STEPS UP

/in /by

YOUNGSTOWN OH- One of the themes of Cardinal Mooney volleyball this season is same faces, different places. Although the Cardinals return a ton of members of last season’s rosters, many of them have been asked to step in to either larger, or different roles. Taking over one of the most important roles on the floor is senior Addison Stacy.

Addison knew coming in to the season how much work it was going to take to become a solid varsity setter. Trying to fill the shoes of Angelina Rotunno I’d not a easy task.  However, Stacy took a bunch of time learning from Rotunno while she was around, and now she felt confident that she can run the Cardinals offense. Rotunno came in during the summer and helped out with everything she could. The biggest step for Stacy was to create a bond and rhythm with the hitters that she’d be setting to. Now as we start the second half of the season, you can see the advancement that she has made finding connections with all her hitters.

Stacy currently sits at 225 assists on the season. With an average of 6.4 assists per set, Stacy is definitely finding a groove.  She is also no slouch on defense. Stacy currently ranks 3rd on the team in digs with 89.

Stacy was kind enough to take time and chat with YSN’s Anthony Hartwig. They talk about her stepping in to this big role, what makes Mooney such a strong family, and so much more. Share your support with the Mooney volleyball team and check out the latest Player Profile only on YSN.
