Chloe Chicoine has played volleyball in a lot of gymnasiums. From the United States to Mexico, the second-ranked recruit in the nation has traveled the continent in pursuit of her dreams, but the gym she’ll miss the most is the one close to home — at McCutcheon High School in Lafayette, Ind.
The 5-foot-10 outside hitter has racked up quite the reputation in her home state. With Chicoine leading the offense in her senior season, the Mavericks are 13-1, and in two sweeps this week against Western Boone and Harrison, Chicoine amassed 34 kills, 18 digs and five aces, earning JWS Player of the Week honors.
Chicoine leads the team in kills with 227, averaging 6.0 kills per set. She’s also hitting .448 on the year and is second on her team with 21 aces and 125 digs.
This year, she says she’s improved not only her hitting but also her passing.
“It’s always been good, but I think I’ve taken it to the next level,” Chicoine said.
