Lyubenko scored a team-high 12 goals for the Wolves last year and tacked on six assists to bring her scoring total to 30 points on the season.
That effort was a key factor in Grandview claiming the Class 5A state championship.
She is just the latest member of the Wolves to declare her college choice. She has teammates both in the 2016 and 2017 recruiting classes that will play for high-profile programs upon the completion of their high school careers.
