Nicole McDonald

Nicole is a 6'1" middle blocker from Edmonton, Canada.  She brings height, skill and experience to our 2011 team.  Playing volleyball since grade 7, Nicole played on Team Canada Prospects in grade 9, Team Alberta grade 10 and 11 and received a provincial AllStar in grade 11. She played club volleyball on the Northern Alberta Volleyball Club (NAVC).  The team finished second in the province. 

Rachel Arnason

Rachel is an energetic and athletic volleyball player that will give us versatility on the outside as well as middle.  With an approach jump touch of 9'10", she will be an offensive force both as a hitter and blocker.  As captain of her club team, Rachel led her team to a 4th place finish in the provincials and 16th at nationals.  She is a smart and consistent hitter that can score points!

Kierston Smith

Kierston is a talented 6-1 setter with tremendous potential.  She has a great jump float serve and brings added height to our front row, both as a blocker and hitter.  The versatility and all around play that Kierston and our returning setter, Sarah Geraldson bring to the program will give us a multitude of offensive and defensive options and should contribute to SCF's best setting combination in the State!

Jordan Raulerson

Jordan is a very strong and powerful athlete that will give our Manatees incredible offensive power at the net.  With her impressive block and thundering hits, Jordan will leave her mark in the Suncoast Conference as well as the state and can easily be one of the top hitters in the country!

Natalie Fraley

Natalie is one of the quickest and most dynamic athletes in the State.  Her speed is only surpassed by her terrific passing and digging abilities.  Natalie will be a great addition to our team and help our Manatees continue to be one of the best defensive teams in our conference and state.

Jovanna Santamaria

Jovanna will be converting from setter to Libero this season at SCF.  She is an outstanding athlete with terrific communication and leadership skills.  Her positive attitude and energetic style of play will make her one of the best Liberos in the State. Jovanna and incoming freshman Natalie Fraley, will make a dynamic defensive duo that is surely to take the state by storm!

Alexis Jones

Alexis is a dynamic and athletic player that will bring a lot of speed and agility to our front row.  Her quickness and jumping ability will allow us to run a fast and varied offense.  She has a great attitude, fantastic work ethic and is a terrific team player who will make a significant contribution to our program over the next couple of years!
