“I consider Amanda to be a strategic attacker—whatever blocking scheme we used to slow her down, she always found a way to maximize her play for the benefit of her team. Amanda’s play in the back row was just as important as her front-row play. Her pipe (back court) attacks were accurate and powerful, and her passing percentage during serve-receives were among the best in our district.”
