The six-footer is an outside hitter with tremendous firepower and her ability to score from anywhere on the court has led to great things at both the high school and club levels. Brockway can not only hit from different places but she’s also got a handful of different shots and is unpredictable at the net. She’s been playing as a libero at the start of the club season. An Illinois State commit, she’s coming from an excellent high school campaign with Graham-Kapowsin in which she registered 582 kills, 67 aces, 31 blocks, 251 digs and 239 passes.</p> <p><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/cDOXGHdg4e0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Sophia Baugh – Setter – HS: North Kitsap - 2023</strong></p> <p>A good team typically starts with a good setter and DaKine Warriors 17 Surf leaves nothing to be desired in that area with Sophia Baugh. The 5’9” playmaker has great touch on the ball and likes to play fast and put her hitters in a great position to score. Baugh is extremely creative, yet consistent, giving her team a lot of options to work with. She made it to the Washington Coaches Association All-State second team during the last high school season, when she produced 731 assists, 326 digs, 108 kills, 56 aces and 25 blocks for North Kitsap.</p> <p><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/iq8lW_oCWXQ" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="97260" first="Ivy" last="Vindivich"] – Outside Hitter – HS: Puyallup – 2023</strong></p> <p>When a team has a player like [player_tooltip player_id="97260" first="Ivy" last="Vindivich"] as its secondary scoring option, you know that’s a damn good team. The 5’11” outside hitter is extremely explosive and can produce as much as anyone in the state at the pin. She has long been a stud for her high school team Puyallup and has been asked to carry DaKine Warriors 17 Surf’s offensive load while Brockway plays as a libero. Her most recent high school stats of 365 kills, 37 aces, 34 blocks and 276 digs leave no doubt that she’s up for the task.</p> <p><iframe title="YouTube video player" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/AlHEA3Hu8xA" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
