Last week: Anderson, a 5-11 senior middle hitter-blocker, racked up 18 kills, two solo blocks and 10 digs Saturday at Baumholder as the 2008 Division IV champions downed D-I Frankfurt International School 25-21, 17-25, 26-24, 25-18 and defending D-III champ Baumholder 25-18, 25-17, 25-15. Brussels coach Vicky Westland said Monday there’s much more to her All-Europe returnee than marks in the scorebook. “Besides her consistent serving and passing, at 5-11 she controls net play with her superb ability to read the ball and the opposing hitter,” Westland said. “Her defensive back-row play is excellent and naturally intuitive.” Anderson, the D-IV tournament MVP last year in her first season for Brussels, serves as co-captain in the team’s quest for another crown, this time in the new D-III.

Last week: Anderson, a 5-6, 150-pound senior wingback, gashed Kaiserslautern for 231 rushing yards on 28 carries during Saturday’s 40-0 victory at Kaiserslautern. “He made most of it right off tackle,” Vilseck coach Jim Hall said Monday. “Their linemen are big, but they only go one direction — straight ahead. We just started pushing them the way they wanted to go and opened up some gaps.” Taking K-town the way it wanted to go, Hall said, were his interior linemen — tackles Jonathan Delgado, Noah Hartley and Keanan Massey; guards Patrick Akuna, Collins Ramer and Keane Anderson, and center Darrius Whitehead — along with TE Kalyn Smithson. The elusive Anderson didn’t score during the romp, but upped his season total to 265 yards in 36 carries for the unbeaten Falcons.
