<p>Seniors aren’t the only ones making statements and showing their stuff so far this season. Let’s first take a look at 6 of Wisconsin’s most efficient hitters from the 2020 recruiting class that are still available. These will be some must-see players from across the state!</p>
<p><strong>From The Class Of 2020</strong></p>
<p> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="80155" first="Jacqueline" last="Smith"] </strong>– 2020 – 5’11 – Outside Hitter/Defensive Specialist – Northland Pines (15-11)</p>
<p>Smith is in her 3<sup>rd</sup> season on varsity and just recently recorded her 1,000<sup>th</sup> kill on September 20<sup>th</sup>. She also recorded a career high 36 kills in the Eagles 1-3 loss to Mosinee. Even more impressive for Smith is that she is currently hitting a .462 this season. She has a crazy high reach, fast swing, and has grown as a player a ton already, and she still has a ton of potential to develop.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="80151" first="Halle" last="Olson"] </strong>– 6’2 – Outside Hitter – River Falls (26-1)</p>
<p>Olson is a driving force in a well-balanced attack for the Wildcats. She leads her squad with 193 kills and should have no problem getting to the 1,000 kill mark this year. Olson is currently hitting a .391 and is on pace to record almost 400 kills this season. </p>
<p><strong>Carly Clausen </strong>– 6’0 – Middle Blocker – Catholic Memorial (31-5)</p>
<p>Clausen is part of a deadly 1-2 punch with senior <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="33061" first="Jenna" last="Weinfurt"]</strong> for the Crusaders. Her team has so many weapons, and they run a really balanced attack, but Clausen has managed to still tally 201 kills so far this season. Clausen hit an impressive .727, getting 8 kills on 11 attempts with no errors, in early August in their 2-0 win over Union Grove.</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="80225" first="Aubrey" last="Schoeneman"] </strong>– 5’11 – Outside Hitter/Middle Blocker/Setter – Mercer (21-5)</p>
<p>Schoeneman is the driving force for Mercer this season. She leads the Tigers with 276 kills while hitting a .341. Schoeneman recorded a career high 19 kills this past week in their 3-0 win over Butternut.</p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="80171" first="Emily" last="Bruckshen"] </strong>– 5’11 – Pin Hitter – Howards Grove (22-7)</p>
<p>Howard Grove has a young squad and a lot of strength in their underclassmen. One of the upperclassmen who is helping lead this squad is Bruckshen. She hits a solid .340 and recorded a season high 14 kills twice at the beginning of August.</p>
<p><strong>Abigail Nemec </strong>– 5’8 – Middle Blocker/Outside Hitter – Hillsboro (14-11)</p>
<p>Nemec is having a breakout season as she is currently on pace to have an almost 300 kill season if she can get Hillsboro deep into the post season. Along with senior, <strong>Jessica Mitchell</strong>, Nemec leads the Tigers in the attack. Nemec is currently hitting a .338 and has 175 kills on the season so far.</p>
