The four seniors have all played an integral role on FM's success.  Jenna Putnam who was conference player of the year in 2015 has had another stellar season.  She currently has recorded 144 kills, 161 digs, and 15 blocks on the season so far. Brittany Orminski leads the team this year with 24 service aces and 312 digs, which ranks her #5 in the region.  Her twin sister Emily follows with 134 kills, 224 assists, 37 aces, 100 digs and 38 blocks this season.  She has helped lead her team to regionals for the second straight year.  The last senior, Miranda Nethaway is in her first season on the squad, but will be graduating academically in the spring.  She has been a crucial addition to the squad as she is currently ranked #1 in the nation with 89 solo blocks.  Miranda also leads the team with 162 kills this season.  Coaches and teammates will truly miss these four athletes next season and wish them the best of luck, and they are not done yet!
