Prep Dig Wisconsin Top 250: Setters from Session 2, Court 2!

<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 setters from Session 2, Court 2.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> [caption id="attachment_117113" align="alignright" width="150"]<img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-117113" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pd/uploads/2020/11/Alivia-Jeanquart-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /> [player_tooltip player_id="91939" first="Alivia" last="Jeanquart"], 2023, S.[/caption] <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>169 - [player_tooltip player_id="91939" first="Alivia" last="Jeanquart"] (2023, S, Green Bay Preble)</strong></span></p> <p>Alivia is a 5’7" setter with really soft hands and really good skills.  She gets the ball right where she should and will chase down anything to get things in order for her offense.  That is invaluable in a setter.  She really gets her team moving and keeps the enthusiasm high, no matter the circumstances.</p> [caption id="attachment_117125" align="alignleft" width="150"]<img class="wp-image-117125 size-thumbnail" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pd/uploads/2020/11/Avery-Veenendall-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /> [player_tooltip player_id="119419" first="Avery" last="Veenendall"], 2023, S.[/caption] <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>232 - [player_tooltip player_id="119419" first="Avery" last="Veenendall"] (2023, S, La Crosse)</strong></span></p> <p>Avery is so enthusiastic and aggressive.  Her hands are like butter.  She makes it look really easy but is not afraid to get down and dirty when she needs to.  Very impressive athlete.  Smart plays to the middle of her opponent’s side of the court when appropriate.</p> [caption id="attachment_117160" align="alignright" width="150"]<img class="wp-image-117160 size-thumbnail" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pd/uploads/2020/11/Kate-Bahrke-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /> [player_tooltip player_id="91917" first="Kate" last="Bahrke"], 2023, S.[/caption] <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>125 - [player_tooltip player_id="91917" first="Kate" last="Bahrke"] (2023, S, Oconto High School) </strong></span></p> <p>Kate lays her body on the floor to get the second touch on every ball.  Aside from being really fast, she also is very good.  She puts the ball exactly where each hitter needs it and calls the right hitter each time.  She is athletic and smart and really puts her team in a position to win with her sets.  She is also a good attacker, if she sees an opening lookout, a ball is going to an empty spot on the court.</p> [caption id="attachment_117124" align="alignleft" width="150"]<img class="wp-image-117124 size-thumbnail" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pd/uploads/2020/11/Ava-Schabes-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /> [player_tooltip player_id="61729" first="Ava" last="Schabes"], 2023, S.[/caption] <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>209 - [player_tooltip player_id="61729" first="Ava" last="Schabes"] (2023, S, Chicago)</strong></span></p> <p>Ava is the most impressive setter I have seen so far today.  I know that because I had a little star next to her name.  She gets to every ball, gets great height, and it looks so easy and beautiful.  She can set anywhere, but the most impressive is probably behind her.  The right sides will love her.  Really high and right where it is supposed to be, very impressive athlete.</p> [caption id="attachment_117123" align="alignright" width="150"]<img class="wp-image-117123 size-thumbnail" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pd/uploads/2020/11/Ava-Rank-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /> [player_tooltip player_id="91914" first="Ava" last="Rank"], 2023, DS/L.[/caption] <p>&nbsp;</p>
