Diaz was a high school teammate of current Newberry two-sport student-athlete Natalie Willis and her mother, Angie, was her assistant coach in high school.

She led River Bluff in digs as a senior and was a North/South All-Star.
“We are excited about the addition of Sydney to our program," Hay said. "She is an extremely hard-working and driven player with excellent serve-receive and defensive skills. Her energy and competitiveness will be a lot of fun to coach as well. I am looking forward to seeing Sydney in our gym this coming fall.”
