Some of her more impressive performances included registering 15 kills in a season-opening 3-1 win over Timberlake and 36 digs in a five-set win over Orofino. In the 3A Central Idaho League district tournament, she posted a team-high eight kills in a win over St. Maries and nine in a win against Kellogg to lead Priest River back to the title match.
