Quotes from Beaver C.C. coach Christen Adels: "Maggie is the only senior on the team and is, without a doubt, the heart and soul of our team. She has a high volleyball IQ and knows exactly where her less-experienced teammates are to be on the court and directs them to be in the right positions. She is a great encourager to her teammates and leads by example with her work ethic both on and off the court. The team looks forward to seeing how deep we can go into playoffs under her leadership."
