Watch as Coach Rocco Lucci explains, and players demonstrate this run-through drill that focuses on digging balls that are far away. Coach wants players to start very low with arms out ready for a hard-hit ball. Players will run, dig the ball, and continue running. The speed of the body helps to get the ball up if the platform is correct. You can do this with a low bounce or modify by tossing over the net which gives range.
