With that in mind, we’re starting a series that will highlight some of the most promising Washington players according to their positions, classes and regions. Today we’ll look at some talented class of 2022 setters from the Southwest of the state.
Morgan Harter Morgan Harter 5'9" | S Ridgefield | 2022 WA – HS: Ridgefield – Club: Excel NW
We start the list with Morgan Harter Morgan Harter 5'9" | S Ridgefield | 2022 WA , who has long been showing her talent for her high school Ridgefield, where she won back-to-back State Championship titles in 2018 and 2019, and the Excel NW club. The 5’9” Harter can hit eventually, but she’s better when running her team’s offense as she dishes out assists at ease. She does a great job in tracking passes and making an extra effort to put her body in the best possible position to set, facilitating clean, perfectly-placed sets. Morgan, who also plays at the beach, is also a superior defender.
Sydney Moltrum Sydney Moltrum 5'5" | S Camas | 2023 WA – HS: Camas – Club: Oregon Juniors
Calm and confidence are some of the skills that stand out on Sydney Moltrum Sydney Moltrum 5'5" | S Camas | 2023 WA ’s game. The 5’7” setter has a great touch on the ball and that is further enhanced by her ability to make good decisions and the confidence to try out new things. She’s been a fantastic leader for both her high school team Camas and her club squad Oregon Juniors, delivering yet another thing one would expect from a setter. Moltrum is also an excellent defender and she can cause damage with her floater from the service line.
Avalon Watkins Avalon Watkins 5'8" | S Skyview | 2023 WA – HS: Skyview – Club: Athena
Avalon Watkins Avalon Watkins 5'8" | S Skyview | 2023 WA is another setter from Southwest Washington who also works on her craft in the sand. Consistency is her trademark as no matter where the pass goes, she can always get a good location to her sets, especially on the left. The 5’8” Watkins is very agile and mobile on the court and that has taken her to be used as a defensive specialist too, a position she has all the tools to succeed as well with her great all-around game.
