Louis Volker Louis Volker 6'0" | SF Paul VI | 2023 State VA was outstanding all year and one of the best players in NOVA. She is a good passer, can shoot the ball from 3, and has a great mid-range game. I watched a lot of her this season, and the maturity in her game always impressed me. She capped off her senior season with A VHSL state championship. She was named to the WCAC first team.

Louis was the bright spot for PVI and the only Panther to reach double digit scoring with 11 points.  She was also part of the WCAC first team and would have loved to put another ring on her finger.  Expect her to continue her stellar play at Missouri State next season.

PVI and Bishop Ireton played the game of the day on Saturday in a thriller. The game was close throughout, and it was back and forth. Louis Volker Louis Volker 6'0" | SF Paul VI | 2023 State VA wasn’t her best for a lot of the game. But she was fantastic in the second half. She hit a couple of threes late in the game, one of which was a buzzer-beating game-winner—a big shot for a big-time player. On Sunday, in the semifinal against Bishop McNamara, she had a double-double to help PVI place their name in the final.

If I had to name my favorite player I’ve watched this season, it would be Louis Volker Louis Volker 6'0" | SF Paul VI | 2023 State VA . Louis makes the game look easy. She can score inside from the post, face up other bigs and shoot over them or drive by them, or step out and drain 3s. She is a fantastic rebounder and an underrated passer. Louis was arguably the best senior in NOVA this year and PVIs best player.

PVI played two games this week, going 1-1. They lost a hard-fought game to Bishop McNamara on Tuesday, then gave an absolute beatdown to Bishop O’Connell on Thursday. In both of those games, Louis Volker Louis Volker 6'0" | SF Paul VI | 2023 State VA was fantastic. She was PVI’s primary source of offense against Bishop McNamara, using her touch and array of moves around the rim. Against Bishop O’Connell, she used her brilliant touch, but she had a lot of hard-earned buckets getting rebounds and steals in the backcourt leading to buckets.

PVI’s offense was out of sorts for a lot of the game, and the main reason the game was competitive was because of Louis Volker Louis Volker 6'0" | SF Paul VI | 2023 State VA . Volker showed off her versatility as a scorer making crafty moves around the rim and stepping out to knock down some jump shots. As the game wore on, she became more of a focus of Bishop McNamara, and they started to collapse on her and make life difficult. But to me, that’s a testament to how good she is. To draw that kind of respect on a team with as much talent as PVI speaks volumes about how good she is.

The most impressive player of the day was senior forward Louis Volker Louis Volker 6'0" | SF Paul VI | 2023 State VA . What makes Volker’s game so special is she is a swiss army knife. She can guard multiple positions, and she’s a super-disciplined defender. She contests shots without fouling in the paint and can stay in front of guards when forced to cover them. What impresses me about Volker is her ability to pass. She created a lot of open layups by simply standing at the top of the key, finding cutters and shooters. She was efficient around the rim and was the most complete player on the court.
