23-year-old Li Yingying, however, topped the best attackers’ chart with 214 successful spikes, followed by Canada’s Alexa Gray with 208 and Stysiak with 206.
Another Polish player, middle blocker and team captain Agnieszka Korneluk, finished as the best blocker of the Preliminary Phase on a total of 43 stuffs, four clear of second-placed Mira Todorova of Bulgaria.
Bulgaria did not make it to the Finals and, in fact, they barely survived in the VNL for next season, but two of their rising stars topped individual rankings at the end of the league round. 21-year-old outside Maria Yordanova emerged as the best server with 19 aces to her name, followed by Japan’s Sarina Koga with 17 and Germany’s Camilla Weitzel with 16, while 19-year-old libero Mila Pashkuleva proved to be the best defender with 176 digs, beating the next best Izabela Stimac of Croatia by 16.
