MacKenzie Chastain-Hunter has committed to play volleyball for Blinn College at the Reagan signing ceremony on November 11 at the Rattler Gym.
MacKenzie has been an extremely valuable 4-year varsity player for the Rattlers and will make a significant addition to Blinn College.
“Kenzie has grown in the gym, developing a deep understanding of the game and an exceptionally high volleyball IQ. Her experience and passion for the sport will serve her well as she continues her volleyball journey at the next level,” said Coach Rachel Torvik. She started making an impact as a freshman on the Varsity volleyball team. She was pivotal within our program for four years as a middle-blocker, opposite-hitter, and setter. We will miss this young woman, but we know the best is yet to come as she represents her family and the Stone Oak community at Blinn. She has impeccable character, competes on and off the court and we will miss her. “Keep shining bright #6!”
Kenzie started her freshman season, half-way through the season, as a middle-blocker, against the previous year’s State Champions. Her contributions led the team to a district championship.
Her junior season, she transitioned to setter, led the team with “Aces,” and helped win a district championship.
She started her senior year as a six-rotation player at setter and opposite-hitter positions, accumulated over 1,000 assists, one of the leaders in blocking, helped the team advance to the playoffs, and earned Best and Brightest 1st Team honors.
MacKenzie is a four-year letterman on the Reagan volleyball team. Throughout her four years at Reagan, she played an instrumental role in helping lead the team to the playoffs each season. Her accomplishments include three District Championships, three Bi-District Championships, an Area Championship, and a Regional Quarterfinalist finish.
Congratulations Kenzie on your success at Reagan! We wish you all the best as a Blinn College Buccaneer!
You can follow Kenzie next year @blinnvolleyball. #blinnvolleyball #gobucs #OnceARattlerAlwaysARattler
