Hidden Gems From Nebraska Top 10 Camp

<p>KEARNEY - The Nebraska Top 10 Camp at Kearney Catholic is one of the top summer team camps in the state for a variety of reasons, but one of them is for the outstanding collection of talent - both in terms of teams and individuals - that converge on camp for four days.</p> <p>The fact that college coaches can be at one school and watch 50+ teams play over the course of 3-4 days draws them to the event. It also helps that event organizer – Kearney Catholic coach Kris Conner – equips college coaches and the occasional nerd (that’s me) with booklets of information about the teams and the players, including all the player info needed for colleges to add athletes to their recruiting pipeline.</p> <p>There are always players that are either not on our radar or maybe the name is familiar but the opportunity to actually watch the player in person hasn't been there. Regardless, every year several players make a name for themselves based on their performance at the camp. Here are a dozen underclassmen that fit that description which impressed over the three days I was there covering the event.</p> <p>Players are listed alphabetically.</p> <p>Regan Alfs, 2020, 5'11, Setter/RS, BDS</p> <p>Sarah Clinch, 2020, 5'10, MB, Kearney Catholic</p> <p>Jill Collins, 2021, 5'10, MB, Kearney Catholic</p> <p>Karigan Drudik, 2020, 5'10, OH/MH, Lawrence-Nelson</p> <p>Cameran Jansky, 2022, 5'7, MH, Exeter-Milligan</p> <p>Brianna Lemke, 2022, 6'0, MB, Mead</p> <p>Mariah Markus, 2020, 6'0, MB, Loup City-Arcadia</p> <p>Peyton Neff, 2021, 5'8, Setter, North Platte</p> <p>Emily Otten, 2020, 5'9, MB, Omaha Concordia</p> <p>Kayden Pueden, 2021, 5'9, OH, Hartington-Newcastle</p> <p>Kelsey Salazar-Allen, 2020, 6'0, MB, North Platte</p> <p>Sidney Stallbaum, 2020, 5'10, MB/RS, Ewing</p> <p>Madelyn Watchorn, 2020, 5'11, OH, Leyton</p> <p>Kalea Wetjen, 2020, 6'0, MB, Heartland</p> <p>Jasa Wiedel, 2022, 5'10, Setter, Thayer Central</p>
