STARKVILLE – Mississippi State head coach Julie Darty Dennis announced the addition of four signees last week. Those four include Laura Williams, McKenna Dressel, Avery Power and Bre Perrin.
Â
"We are excited to add Laura, McKenna, Avery and Bre to our roster," Dennis said. "All four bring unique abilities and experience and we can't wait to get them in StarkVegas."
Â
Williams, a 5-9 outside from Lakewood, California, joins the Maroon and White after spending the past two seasons at CSU Fullerton. She collected 279 kills through two seasons, averaging 2.01 kills per set last season. She began her collegiate career at Oregon State, where she appeared in 11 matches.
Â
Dressel, a 6-2 middle blocker from Gilbert, Arizona, makes the move to Starkville after one season at Nevada. She played in all 29 matches, making starts in 23 of those. She collected 112 kills and 83 blocks for the Wolfpack last season. She ranked second on the team in total blocks. Prior to last season at Nevada, Dressel spent two seasons at the junior college level, collecting 1.19 kills per set and 0.98 blocks per set at Scottsdale Community College.
Â
Power, a 5-6 defensive specialist, chose to stay in-state. The Brandon, Mississippi, native has collected numerous accolades during her four seasons at Brandon High School. She led the Bulldogs to four state championship appearances, including two championship victories. She finished her career with over 2,000 digs, a school-record, and set a single-game program record with 45 digs in a single match. Her senior season, she was named the 7A All-Region MVP.
Â
Perrin, a 5-7 setter from Pell City, Alabama, made her marks on the club level. She played for Alabama Performance, which is known for producing college talent, including current assistant coach Lacey Jeffcoat. Perrin brought in numerous honors during her time, including being named to multiple AVCA watchlists.
