Height does seem to play a factor in how fast a player can serve the ball.
in international play men average in the low-mid 60s (mph). some can serve upwards of 80 mph though
That depends on many factors including the person's strength, the speed at which the volleyball is hit at the person who will spike it and the angle at which the arm is swung.
