School: Reedley





Class: Senior

Position: Outside hitter

She's qualified because: Excelled all around the court for the Pirates, the North Yosemite League runners-up and Central Section Division II quarterfinalists.

Led Reedley in kills (355) while finishing second in digs (442).

The NYL MVP also had 45 aces, 33 blocks and 21 assists. A three-year player, Clark is drawing recruiting interest from four-time defending NAIA champion Fresno Pacific.

She said it: "She's by far the best athlete I've ever coached. Anything you ask, she goes above and beyond. She's a really hard, diligent worker. She hits the ball with a lot of power and where she really shines is offensively, but people overlook her defense. She basically took 35% of our serve-receive balls and was very consistent passing. When she played middle back, she could cover the whole court. She makes it look easy when it's not." – Reedley coach Shailey Jones.
