<p><strong>Iowa</strong></p>
<p><strong>Katherine Kouba - Iowa City West - Iowa Rockets </strong></p>
<p><strong>Class of 2022</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kouba is a scrappy libero who plays for Iowa Rockets, one of the top clubs out of Iowa. A Junior at Iowa City West, Kouba is solid in serve receive and knows how to take pace off a hard-driven ball. She has a calm demeanor on the court with little wasted motion, a solid prospect at the next level. </span></p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="79251" first="Elise" last="Mehaffy"] - Marion - Iowa Rockets</strong></p>
<p><strong>Class of 2022</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Super smooth! Mehaffy is Kouba’s club teammate and the duo make a solid 1-2 contact for their squad. Mehaffy was a starting setter for Marion High who advanced to the final four of Iowa’s second-largest class (Class 4A). She’s a setter who can also swing, an all-around player who can find a spot to play anywhere on the court. Great intangibles as well! </span></p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="17244" first="Emma" last="Schubert"] - Davenport Assumption - Iowa Select</strong></p>
<p><strong>Class of 2021</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Schubert is part of an uber deep pool of Class of 2021 outsides in Iowa. I’ve always described her style as a violent arm swing and approach, she is so fast to the ball! A six rotation outside who can swing anywhere and score points is always welcome at the next level. She is definitely a gem that will be fun to see blend with other top athletes in Wisconsin! </span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="79708" first="Ava" last="Schubert"] - Davenport Assumption - Iowa Select (Title Photo) </strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Just a thunderous swing. Schubert was the MAC Player of the Year which is comprised of the big schools in the Quad Cities area as a Freshman. She is also the sister to [player_tooltip player_id="17244" first="Emma" last="Schubert"]. A six rotation, left handed right side who can play and score in six rotations.</span></p>

<p><strong>Minnesota </strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Minnesota Volleyball Academy will be bringing three talented athletes in <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="72102" first="Madison" last="Gully"] (2021), [player_tooltip player_id="72783" first="Jackie" last="Yang"] (2022), and [player_tooltip player_id="72813" first="Makenzie" last="Coplan"] (2021)</strong>. These athletes have played together for years and have solid fundamental training from their coach Quang Vo out of the North St. Paul/Blaine area. Gully and Coplan are outside hitters who have such a heavy swing and know how to serve receive and pass against high level competition. Yang comes from the Class of 2022 and has always played up an age level. She’s quick, anticipates well, and always rises when the stakes are high. </span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Illinois</strong></p>
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="61652" first="Sylvia" last="Hasz"] - Rochelle Township - VC United </strong></p>
<p><strong>Class of 2022</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hasz knows how to play at a high level, being part of VC United’s 161 Elite squad who won the JVA Showcase in the Dells right before Quarantine. As a 6’1 setter she is a force at the net with her block and can attack when the opportunity presents itself. She has demonstrated she can set every tempo in front and behind while keeping up with a fast paced offense. The Class of 2022 attackers will enjoy working with Hasz. </span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Julianna Rettig - Antioch - Sky High </strong></p>
<p><strong>Class of 2023</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A major passion for the game, Rettig is a Class of 2023 libero that has exhibited a strong work ethic as well as a relaxed platform, the ability to serve receive, as well as possess the intangibles that all liberos need. She was one who jumped on the radar at the Wisconsin Top 250 in December of 2019 and has been rising ever since! </span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>Caitlyn Rochon - Lincoln Way Central - Uno </strong></p>
<p><strong>Class of 2022</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Rochon is extremely well rounded with her skill set as a dynamic setter, but has also shown that she can swing from either pin. She can jump set, jump set to attack, or make the defensive play when needed. She is also carrying over a 4.3 GPA and could be a major prospect for the high academic route as well.</span></p>
