Lady Sharks middle blocker <\/span>Esthefany Rabit has taken the 2023 volleyball season by force<\/span>\u2014literally.<\/span><\/p>\n

The towering 6-foot-four inch freshman known for her booming spike is second on the team with <\/span>212 total points and 158 kills in 22 matches. She also leads<\/span>\u00a0the National Junior College Athletic Association with a .432 hitting percentage<\/span><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rabit has recorded at least 15 total points and 10 kills in four matches. Her biggest statistical game was on Sept 1 versus New Mexico Military Institute when she had 22 total points and 18 kills in a 3-1 win.<\/span><\/p>\n

But her biggest performances have been against the top teams in the country. Rabit had 19.5 total points and 15 kills in a 3-1 Lady Sharks win on Sept. 2 versus Salt Lake Community College who is currently ranked No. 4 in the nation.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Oct. 21, she collected 19.5 total points and five solo blocks in a 3-2 road win versus Florida Southwestern State College, the top-ranked team in the country.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The win avenged an MDC loss (3-0) versus the Buccaneers earlier this season. Last season, the Lady Sharks lost\u00a0 all three matches against FSW, including the national title game.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEsthefany is an aggressive player that helps us finish plays when we need it most,\u201d said Daniela Tobar, an assistant volleyball coach for the Lady Sharks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Her dominant play is a major reason the Lady Sharks finished the regular season with an 18-4 mark including an 11-3 record in conference play.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stat Sheet: Freshman Esthefany Rabit led the nation with a .432 hitting percentage and was second on the Lady Sharks in total points (212) and kills (158) during the regular season. YAIRI LORENZO \/ THE REPORTER<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The team had three winning streaks of at least four wins, including an eight-game streak in September. They are currently ranked <\/span>No. 3 in the nation<\/span><\/a><\/span>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Rabit started her volleyball career when she was 10 years old in the Dominican Republic. She liked the opportunity the sport provided to channel her aggressiveness.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI love everything about volleyball,\u201d she said. “It’s a release.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The 21-year-old has traveled to countries such as <\/span>Belgium, Colombia, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, Peru and Spain while playing for teams such as <\/span>the Cristo Rey club in the Women\u2019s Superior Volleyball League, Las ni\u00f1as del Caribe, Las nenas del Caribe and most recently on the Dominican Republic national team, where she played with former Lady Sharks star <\/span>Romina Cornelio<\/span><\/a><\/span> who <\/span>currently plays for Florida Atlantic University<\/span><\/a><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was hard because there were so many girls that were better than me,\u201d Rabit said about her experience on the national team. \u201cI had to work hard to be better than them or just [to be] as good as them and earn their respect.”
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>When she was offered a scholarship to play volleyball at MDC, she jumped at the opportunity but it caused friction with Dominican national team officials.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThey told me not to come back and that I wasn\u2019t going to be on the national team anymore, to make my life here,\u201d Rabit said. \u201cSo now I\u2019m here and I\u2019m a lot more calm.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the path to Miami wasn\u2019t a smooth one. Rabit was originally slated to join the team last season but did not qualify after failing a test to complete her high school requirements. She retook the exam but the season had already started.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI was very sad,\u201d Rabit said. \u201cI started to cry.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

She stayed in shape by doing conditioning and practicing in the gym in the Dominican Republic until she moved to Miami in January.<\/span><\/p>\n

At MDC, Rabit, who speaks Spanish and some English and French, is studying foreign languages. In her spare time, she watches University of Miami football games online, reads romance novels like Sometida Por Chris<\/em> (Subdued By Chris<\/em>) by Wendy Valderrama on Wattpad, a free online platform that allows writers to publish their original content, and enjoys action movies like <\/span>Fast & Furious <\/span><\/i>and<\/span> The Gray Man<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEsthefany is a great colleague and friend. She has charisma that can brighten up your day,\u201d said Rabit\u2019s teammate, Vivian Lucumi. \u201cShe makes us smile and brings a lot of enthusiasm and good energy to the team.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
