We love the DigNittanyVolleyball community -- which continues to expand. But it's the off-season, so there isn't as much to talk about as during the season, when we all have the opportunity (no, make that the obligation) to set the coaching staff and players right on what they're doing wrong. Until then, here's a link to an update on 2018 recruit Amanda Phegley: www.dignittanyvolleyball.com/recruiting-update-amanda-phegley-3-18-18/

And here's an excerpt:
Amanda Phegley, a 6-4 MB from Berkeley Preparatory School (where her Penn State teammate-to-be, Jenna Hampton, is also enrolled)Berkeley Prep in signed on November 8, 2017 to play for the Penn State Women’s Volleyball team, starting in the 2018 season. . . .
Amanda enjoyed great success during her high school career, highlighted — at least on a national stage — when she was honored in 2018 by PrepVolleyball.com as the #56 2018 PrepVolleyball.com Senior Ace, and was listed on VolleyballMag.com’s 2018 Fab 50 list. (VolleyballMag.com ranked fellow Penn State recruits Kaitlyn Hord , Jonni Parker, and Serena Gray #4, #5 and #6, respectively, while Gabby Blossom and Jenna Hampton — also members of Penn State’s great 2018 recruiting class — also made VolleyballMag.com’s list!)
From a Florida/Tampa Bay perspective, the highlight of Amanda’s career probably came on November 16, 2017, when her high school — Berkeley Prep — won it’s 16th state volleyball championship in a grueling five-set match (24-26, 25-21, 25-17, 23-25, 15-10) against Orlando Lake Highland Prep in the Class 5A state final at the University of North Florida.
