Philosophy:   Fusion is intent on competing with the top volleyball programs in the country.  We will focus on training our athletes to do just that.  Our unique training methods, strength training, individual position training and attention to detail are what has allowed us to catapult to the top of the Great Lakes Region in just five short years.  Our focus is on training each individual player to reach her potential.  We will not treat our athletes as numbers.  Every athlete is different and will require training that fits her needs... not those of the programs.  We feel that the great deal of exposure and elite competition will give our athletes a wonderful opportunity to continue their volleyball careers at the collegiate level.  After six years, we have nearly 80 players playing collegiate volleyball.
