Continue ReadingI will be writing a series of articles on what I saw from these wonderful players in Carrollton on Sunday. Players drove from Houston, San Antonio, Amarillo, Austin, Oklahoma, and all around the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex area to test their skills and showcase their talents amongst some of the state’s best players to college coaches and our scouts. The following players stood out to us and should be given a look or two from many colleges. This next volume will cover some outstanding outside hitters that attended.
Lauryn “Lolo” Lambert Lauryn “Lolo” Lambert 5'9" | OH Plano East Senior | 2024 State #20 Nation TX [2024] 5-8 Outside (HS: Bishop Lynch/Club: Dallas Skyline/Verbal: Uncommitted)
Lauryn is currently ranked as the 2nd best overall prospect and 2nd best outside in the 2024 Class according to our Prep Dig State Rankings. She plays high school at Bishop Lynch and club for the nationally recognized Dallas Skyline volleyball program. This class is riddled with amazing pin attackers and she is one of the best. When you see her standing on the court, she looks very average standing at five foot eight. BUT when you watch her play, you will see one of the best phenoms in every aspect of the game. This young lady was born to play the sport of volleyball. We were all in awe of just how natural she is in the position whether in the front row or the back row. We will be continuing to watch her grow in the position and in life. I was super impressed when she came to introduce herself in person after the clinic was over. Lolo is just one of those players that steals the show wherever she is. Stay tuned for more on this amazing player.
Lauren Perry Lauren Perry 6'0" | OH Denton | 2024 State #44 Nation TX [2024] 6-0 Outside (HS: Denton/Club: Dallas Skyline/Verbal: Uncommitted)
Lauren is currently ranked as the 5th best overall prospect and the 3rd best outside in the 2024 Class according to our Prep Dig State Rankings. She plays for Denton high school and also for the famed Dallas Skyline volleyball club. We were in awe of Miss Perry as she took the court and dominated against older competition. She is a kill waiting to happen the moment she takes the court. Lauren hits a very heavy ball and finds the court floor no matter where she attacks from. Every court coach that had her this past weekend wrote her number down to give to me. Their notes said what I already knew…she is a great volleyball player. What stood out to me was her overall play on the court. She plays like an upperclassman and has a great attitude on and off the court. I loved meeting her in person and I am sure every college coach would enjoy meeting her also as she has an infectious aura. She exudes all of the intangibles that you would want in a teammate and a player for your roster. We can’t wait to cover her this club season. Stay tuned for more on Miss Perry.
Sydney Garrison Sydney Garrison 5'11" | OH Aubrey | 2023 State TX [2023] 5-11 Outside (HS: Aubrey/Club: Tejas/ Verbal: Uncommitted)
Sydney is currently listed as the 76th best overall prospect in the state, but what I saw this past weekend showed me just how much of a stud she truly is. She is a true six-rotation pin hitter from Aubrey High School and also from Tejas Volleyball club from the North Texas Region. When college coaches ask me about players, they usually are looking for one type of outside. Either they want a banger or a ball control kid to balance out their roster. Syd is a combo of both. She can literally do it all on the court and her accolades show exactly that. When I watched her in person, I was drawn to her blocking footwork and how she reads the hitter. Everyone knows that Miss Garrison is a phenomenal attacker, but she is much more than that if you pay attention. She is the type of player you can build a team around and every coach across the country should give her the attention her play deserves. If you don’t know her name yet….stick around a while. You will. We will be moving her up the state rankings in the next update for sure.
