Position Breakdown: Setters

LAWRENCE, Kan. – Kansas enters the 2019 fall schedule with two setters on its roster, including returner Camryn Ennis who split time with Gabby Simpson last season in the setter role.

"Sara (Nielsen), a transfer from Minnesota, gave us a big boost and the opportunity for her to go on the foreign trip with us was critical. She got an early jump on working with our academic and strength & conditioning programs. Camyrn (Ennis) is also back who benefited from her playing time during her freshman year. She is playing at a high level, and those two will combine to be a really good unit for us."
