"Norah Busch (Pope John Paul II) is a strong, all-around player who makes an impact in every rotation. As a team, we tried to take advantage when she was in the back row, knowing how effective she is in the front with her blocking and ability to score kills. Norah has played multiple positions and consistently contributes no matter where she is on the court. She’s a dynamic athlete who helps her team on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball." - Steph Dunn Head Coach Unionville Girls Volleyball
The PVCA congratulates Norah on an outstanding high school career and wishes her the very best next year at North Carolina State.
