Obviously, she is a very important part of our team. She is capable of having huge offensive moments, but Joanna's strengths are and will always lie in our ball control. She can serve, dig, and pass the ball as well as anybody in the country, and she should have an incredible senior season. I look for Joanna's offensive numbers to improve and for her to be our defensive leader."
