What position in volleyball does the person hit the tandem?

It depends who the setter sets basically what happens is the setter will choose to set either the power or middle player. If the setter sets the middle player, the power player will come into "hit the ball" really what they are doing is tricking the opponent into thinking they are hitting the ball if they fall for it the blockers will set up and try to block power while in reality it is the middle player hitting the ball.

And if the setter set power you do the same thing. The setter will set the power player off the left arm of the middle player (thats how middle will no the sets not for them, also the setter will set the ball shorter for middle) Anyways! once the setter sets the ball for power the middle will go in for the "attack" when in reality they are faking the hit to distract the opponent while the power player pounds the ball to the ground!

hope this helped! :)
