2022 Athletes You Must See at Show Me

There are many uncommitted players in the class of 2022. The shortened 2020 club season did them no favors. Here are some of the players we highly recommend seeing in action if you want to see some of these uncommitted ballers. Taylor Roberts - Pin - Dynasty 17 Black - Open Division Roberts can play any position across the front row and has shown the ability to pass from the back row. A bit undersized but her power and court awareness allows her to score against bigger frontlines. [player_tooltip player_id="99217" first="Madi" last="Corf"] - OH - Dynasty Academy - Open Division Already one of the top 2022 pins in the state, Corf has elevated her game to new levels during the club season. She is an elite scorer and an improved passer and defender. [player_tooltip player_id="41813" first="Sydney" last="Handel"] - OH - KC Power - Open Division Handel is another pin who has seen their game elevate during the 2021 club campaign. Like Corf, more versatility in shot selection has proved to be key this spring. She is another player who has worked hard to evolve into a capable six rotation pin. [player_tooltip player_id="105685" first="Kamryn" last="Farris"] - DS/L - KC Power - Open Division Farris spent numerous years playing up in division until the shortened 2020 season. She has kind of flown under the radar due to those events but she is a big-time defender. She has moved back and forth from libero and specialists and has been steady in both roles. She has good size and length, which allows her to cut off seams. [player_tooltip player_id="123174" first="Ella" last="Bunde"] - L - PVA 17 Elite - Open Division Bunde is a player who has caught our attention this season. She has been playing lights out and instrumental in keeping rallies alive. [player_tooltip player_id="119186" first="Mia" last="Trankler"] - MB - HPSTL 17 Royal - 17 Open Trankler is a player with good size and a consistent player in the middle. She is continuing to improve her all-around game and one we look forward to seeing live this weekend. [player_tooltip player_id="119190" first="Ella" last="Lewis"] - MB - 417 Columbia 17-1 - 17 American We saw Lewis on video earlier this season. She is an instant scorer when she enters the contest. She brings energy to her team that they feed off of immediately. [player_tooltip player_id="41817" first="Jerica" last="Jackson"] - OH - 417 Columbia 17-1 - 17 American Athletic is what comes to mind when to see Jackson on the court. She is a dependable scorer from the pin. Her defense and passing are much improved. Emma Spillman - MB - Club COMO 17-1 - 17 American She is another player who can fill up points immediately upon entering the match. She reads the block well and maneuvers around them to score often. Madison Higgenbotham - DS - Club COMO 17-1 - 17 American Higgenbotham is solid defensively along the back row. She is also dangerous behind the serving line and can go on a run of her own. Tori Valentine - OH - Invasion 17 Black - 17 American When the team needs a point, going to the pins to Valentine is always a great resource to have at your disposal. Taylor Bailey - MB - Summit Volleyball 17-1 - 17 American On occasion, some of the lesser-name clubs have players who stand out and make a name for themselves. Taylor Baily is one of those players you should get to know. She can be straight dominant in moments. She is powerful and can do it all. A future pin is our hope. Sienna Wright - S - Rockwood Thunder 17 White - 17 American Wright is a setter we really enjoyed watching during her team’s third-place finish at MEQ. She is steady and technically sound. Peyton Bergschneider - OH - Top Notch 17 Elite - 17 American Bergschneider is another player who saw her stock rise this club season. [player_tooltip player_id="41803" first="Kate" last="Brown"] - OH - Dynasty 17 Blue - USA Division A player who greatly benefited from a position change was Brown. She played in the middle previously and has become one of the top outside hitters in the state. Her passing is greatly improved and her celebrations are something to see. Alexis Moeschler - L - Dynasty 17 Blue - USA Division Moeschler is a player we first saw during the high school season for Bonner Springs. She was under the radar but not anymore. She is lights out behind the block. [player_tooltip player_id="41816" first="Lacey" last="Higgins"] - S - Mavs 816 17-1 - USA Division The setter class is deep in this state and Higgins is a good one. She has set some of the better scorers over the last few years during the high school season and a true floor general. Paige Whiteside - RS - HPSTL 17 Orange - USA Division A consistent presence on the right side, Whiteside can score and defend well. Lia Graham - L - Mizuno Club North 17-1 - USA Division Graham is another libero we caught earlier this season and look forward to seeing in live-action. She is quick and flies all over the court. Haylee O’Meara - OH - Mizuno Club North 17-1 - USA Division Another pin who made a splash earlier this season, O’Meara is a productive pin with good shot selections in her toolkit. [player_tooltip player_id="41800" first="Nora" last="Belden"] - L - Rockwood Thunder 17 Navy - USA Division Last, but definitely not least of the standout liberos in the state is Belden. She is fun to watch and coaches should definitely tune in to her court this weekend to see her fly around the court.
