"Usually, it's just who has the biggest impact on winning. That would be on that certain team. A lot of times, I have taken into consideration how those players played in the biggest games of the year against the other top opponents and how they performed in big pressure moments, but typically the impact that person has on the team winning matches but I don't consider it has to be a sixth rotation player or setter or I think any position is worthy of being a conference player of the year," Dani Busboom Kelly said.
