Region Leaders (Week 10)

My cover photo is of Mara Murphy (Pacific) who is currently 1^st in the Region in Attacks/Set and 8^th nationally. The photo shows Mara when asked what she thinks of D3VbWest. Mara was recently out for a  few matches but came back against Puget Sound with 22 kills and 55 attacks to lead the team to a 4-set win. This will be our weekly regional leaders’ article that highlight some of the best of the best in our region. I will also be including top 5 teams in our region.
