It’s tough for her to sign off on how the Illinois State volleyball Illinois State University volleyball coach Leah Johnson quickly learned a few things program operates, because this once-in-100-years pandemic has them making a about Kaitlyn Prondzinski. Among them is that she’ll likely never need to tell her to swarm of first-time adjustments. speak up. Prondzinski is reminded of that constantly. Prondzinski, a freshman right-side hitter from Stewartville, won’t ever be compared to a wallflower. People know when she’s in a room, and Johnson says that’s almost “I keep hearing how different things would be if (the pandemic) wasn’t happening,” always a good thing. Prondzinski said. “Upperclassmen are always telling me how things would normally be, and there is a frustration in knowing how much better things could be.” Almost. Then Prondzinski goes down the list.

“Kaitlyn is not shy,” said Johnson, in her fourth season at Illinois State. “She came to “Normally we’d have a fall season, normally we wouldn’t be wearing masks, weight our camp two years ago and there were times when I had to tell her to be quiet. But lifting would be different, we’d be actually going to classes (instead of taking them I really, really like her. The thing about Kaitlyn is that she’s such an inclusive person. online), and we’d be allowed to meet non-athletes,” she said. It’s never just about her, and that makes her so easy to be around.” Illinois State coaches have encouraged their players to limit their interactions to Speaking of inclusive, Johnson might immediately be that way with Prondzinski teammates only in an attempt to slow the virus’ spread and keep their players clear when it comes to her lineup. The freshman’s standing will be discovered in about two of it. months when the Redbirds play their first match.

Her teammates, who include redshirt freshman middle blocker and former Rochester The 6-foot Prondzinski has not just made an impression with her social confidence, Century star Nicole Lund, have made the experience positive. but her game, via fall practices. “Coming in here was super exciting,” Prondzinski said. “Meeting all of these girls on “On Kaitlyn’s side is that she’s played every position (in high school),” Johnson said. the team was awesome. We are led by a good group of seniors who have done a lot “She’s also got a really good arm. Her arm will be just as effective at the college level for this program. Their work has taught me a lot.” as it was in high school. She’s got a strong chance to get meaningful minutes right away.

Confidence has come, gone and come back again for Prondzinski in her That last comment was a reference to the pandemic and how it can sideline anyone first few months on the court. She knows those ebbs and flows will continue. at any time. Prondzinski’s goal, though, is to give herself a break when things aren’t clicking. A COVID-19 has already messed with Prondzinski and her team. Though not many of self-professed perfectionist, that’s not been easy to do. its players have contracted the virus, it has still deeply affected how they go about their business on and off the court. She’s finding herself making a lot more mistakes than she used to as she adjusts to the speed of the college game. Now the goal is to live and learn from those.

“In high school and club volleyball, I didn’t make mistakes nearly as often,” Prondzinski said. “But here, it is just another level, and when I make a mistake it just gets to me. I’ve got to learn how to handle that. And I have to remember that it is still volleyball, a sport I love playing.”
