Stella Swenson Named to U-21 Team for Pan Am Cup

Congratulations Stella!

Stella played well against Canada. She looks graceful and consistent like Samantha. She had a couple of Shaffmaster-like kills.

So you're saying she's a combination of Samantha & Shaff...

She is in-between Samantha and Melani in height and quickness. She is probably not as consistent and precise as either at this time. However, she is a good server, which is important because the team lost two good servers. I think she is a solid player, and the success of the team will depend more on other players raising the level of their games than her play. I hate to make many comparisons because she is Stella not Samantha or Melani, and she needs to develop her own game.
