What is the name of the defensive specialist?
A
Hitter
B
Blocker
C
Libero
D
Setter
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Another key difference between the libero and defensive specialists is that defensive specialists can play any spot on the court. While a libero will sub out after rotating through the back row, a defensive specialist can technically stay in and play the front row if needed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Per the NCAA rules book for women’s and men’s volleyball, the libero is strictly a back-row player and can only be replaced by the same player it replaces. Also, a coach can only designate one libero per set. For most teams, the libero is not a starter.

Detailed explanation-3: -1. The defensive specialist plays the back row just like a libero, but they have to substitute onto the court instead of doing the libero way of replacing players. These substitutions count toward the total for the team.
