<p>I was so impressed with the players that I watched in Wisconsin this weekend! I actually think they might be taller up north. Let’s talk about some hitters from Session 2, Court 2.</p>

<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>189 - Kennedy Martin (2023, OH, De Pere High School)</strong></span></p>
<p>Beast!!! That is straight from my notes from Saturday. Kennedy is a 6’5" OH, big, and really strong. She also happens to be aggressive and has a high court IQ. She is the complete package with nice serve, nasty blocks, hard hits, and really good digs. She will truly be an asset at the next level. </p>

<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>222 - [player_tooltip player_id="91908" first="Monika" last="Stevens"] (2023, MH, Little Chute)</strong></span></p>
<p>Monika is a 6’1" MH, she showed good teamwork, aggression, and a high volleyball IQ. She is the type of player who will take advantage of every mistake an opponent makes from hitting an overpassed ball to stuffing what an opponent thought would be a kill. Basically, she is a nightmare offensive and defensively and will be an asset to any team she plays on. </p>

<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>170 - [player_tooltip player_id="91927" first="Katie" last="Johannes"] (2023, OH, Mukwonago High School)</strong></span></p>
<p>Katie is a 5’10" OH who is a smart player. She got the ball to the court and away from the defenders on the opposite side of the court most of the time. She seems really efficient when set well and has a nice serve. She seems to handle out of system balls well.</p>

<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>185 - Riley Laine (2023, MB, South Milwaukee)</strong></span></p>
<p>Riley is a 6’1" MB with a heavy hand smacking it down on her opponents. She was really good in serve/receive also. Definitely one to keep our eye on in the coming seasons and would already be an asset at the next level. </p>

<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>193 - Sage McKeough (2023, RS, Wausau)</strong></span></p>
<p>Sage is a 5’10" RS hitter who is quick, athletic, a good server, and an excellent hitter. She is quick to realize when she needs to be moving so can dig anything up regularly.</p>

<p>Sydney is a 5’11" MH with serious hops, a really powerful and easy looking swing, and some real speed on the court. She also has some great serves and good blocks. She is a body sacrificing kind of player and gets some really interesting and difficult digs.</p>
