Coach Duncan on Moreno: “Sharon will be another leader on the court for us.  It will be between Mary Lee and Sharon in regards to setting.  We might even have both of them set during the year.  At any rate, Sharon has tremendous blocking skills and will be playing the right side of the court whether she’s hitting or setting.  She spent the spring setting and understands the system that we’re running.  We look for her to do some great things this year.  She has a legitimate shot at being all-conference.”
