Being a utility player is good, but it usually signals that you aren't the best on the team for any one position. My wife's god daughter who is only 5 ' 6'' can spike over much taller women/girls because she has impressive vertical leap and powerful arms. She is good enough to make regional teams but not good enough for the national team. She however received a volleyball scholarship to a college in Kansas then played at Arkansas State University and is now an assistance coach at a college in Kansas. She was one of those that played all positions.
