If you don’t know her name by now, you’re late to the party.
Brittany Abercrombie isn’t just putting up numbers — she’s rewriting the book on what it means to be an opposite hitter in the modern pro game.
From NCAA stardom to international battles, AU glory, and PVF firepower, she’s stacking accolades like it’s light work. And the scary part? She’s just getting started.
🏐 From Cali Killer to USC Royalty
Raised in Carlsbad, CA, Abercrombie was already a high school legend:

-
- 🇩🇪 Germany – SC Potsdam
-
- 🇵🇷 Puerto Rico – Pinkin de Corozal + repped the national team
-
- 🇹🇷 Turkey – Adam Volleyball
-

Every stop? She leveled up. That international seasoning? You can taste it in every swing she takes.
