Futura Volley’s second starting spiker comes from far away, precisely from Texas. This is Alyssa Enneking, an American born in 1997, who arrives in Busto Arsizio after some championships played in Europe, between Cyprus and Portugal, where she was able to make herself stand out. The player originally from Houston attended Oklahoma University and in the four years spent with the Sooners she achieved important recognition.
In 2017, as a junior, she received AVCA All-America Honorable Mention, was selected to the All-Southwest First Team and named to the Academic All-Big 12 First Team. As a senior in 2018, the numbers spoke for her: best scorer in the NCAA – Big 12 Conference and 1,245 total points at the end of the season which earned her tenth place overall in the history of the University of Oklahoma,
Having then arrived in Europe, in the last year she divided her time between Sc Braga and Olimpiada Neapolis. From Portugal she took home the title of best attacker of the regular season; in the final part of the season she moved to Cyprus where she won the championship and the Cup. A targeted addition to Enneking, who presents herself as a player capable of guaranteeing balance, experience and character, given her skills as a leader and fighter. She is solid in reception, among her other characteristics the elevation, the great predisposition to work and a good variety of attacking shots stand out.
