Lucy Drexel – Lucy is a middle for the River City Juniors 16 Navy team and was the best blocking and hitting middle I saw this weekend. She is a 2022 grad year player.
Claire Wilson – Claire is a really good middle with good blocking instincts and great hits! She plays for the River City Juniors 18 Navy team and was instrumental in her team’s success this tournament. She attends Roncalli Catholic and will be a 2021 graduate. Her stats last fall were 2.2 KPS, 55 total blocks, and 2.8 DPS.
Alivia Cullen – Alivia plays for the River City Juniors 18 Navy team and was definitely one of the best middles this weekend. She is fast and fierce at the net and a difficult opponent to beat when hitting against her team. Alivia is a 2021 future graduate from Fort Calhoun.
Karli Ahlers – Karli attends Papillion LaVista High School and will graduate in 2022. As a sophomore, she played in 27 sets and accumulated 31 kills and 16 total blocks. During the club season, she is on the roster for the River City Juniors 17 Navy team. She is definitely an up and comer and one to watch from the class of 2022.
Ellie Perrine – Ellie plays for the SWI 3rd Degree 17 White team this club season and was really instrumental at the net during this tournament. She attends Council Bluffs Thomas Jefferson High School and last fall her stats were 1.55 KPS, a .867 serve efficiency with 29 aces, 47 digs, and 12 total blocks. She really stepped it up at this tournament and deserves some recognition for her instrumental play for her team. Good job, Ellie!
