The former Long Beach and Nebraska standout is making waves in her first few matches. In Madison’s four-set victory over LOVB Nebraska, Schwarzenbach led her team with 17 points (4.25 per set). She had 14 kills on a .478 efficiency and contributed three blocks as well. 

Lydia Martyn, Indy Ignite

The second-year pro recorded a double-double in Indy’s five-set win over Columbus, with ten kills and 10 blocks combining for a total of 20 blocks. She was responsible for the final three points of the match, two of which were blocks.

Outsides

Anna Haak, LOVB Madison
