Chan's Outlook: "During the off-season, I took over responsibility for the setters, so Elyse and I have worked a lot with each other the past few months. There are a lot of ideas I want to try and work into our offensive scheme, and Elyse has been on the same page since day one. She has made some incredible strides in the past few months as we've tried to install this new offense, and she really has embraced it. I'm looking for her to have an even better year than she has the previous two."
