Her senior year she was named the Nevada State Player of the Year after compiling 1,135 assists, an average of 10.5 per set, to lead the Crusaders to their third straight title. Kronschnabel graduated in 2016 and returned to her alma mater to serve as the Assistant Varsity Coach for the 2018 and 2019 seasons. She also coached at Centennial High School in 2017, another prominent Vegas area program. While still playing, Kronschnabel began coaching club volleyball in 2015.
