Last year, Haven senior libero Mayzie Warden earned honorable mention all-league and this season she hopes all her work over the offseason will help her improve on that.
Warden did a variety of things this summer to help improve her game.
“I’ve played club for a while and have done a few camps, lots of conditioning, and just worked on getting touches in as often as possible,” Warden said.
One thing specifically Warden worked on this offseason was improving on getting quicker and reading hitters more efficiently.
“Doing targeted workouts and watching a lot of college games to see how they move and read helped,” Warden said.
Warden is excited for her senior year to just experience every moment of her last season playing high school volleyball.
“I’m most excited to watch our team grow and come together. We have great team chemistry this year and I think that will be beneficial for us,” Warden said. “Some team goals I have for this season are to continue to better our record and have fun while doing it.”
Last season Warden averaged 5.3 digs per set, 31 aces with a serving percentage of 94.5%. Warden also had 456 digs and 700 receptions on the season. This season she has goals to reach 1,500 career digs, and 50 aces on the season.
