McConnell is springy and athletic with great footwork in the middle, transitions off, and loves the three balls. Heart and soul of the team and relied on this year for big matches.
Mia Berg Mia Berg 6'1" | OH Eureka | 2023 State MO – 6’0″ – Middle/Right-side – Eureka
Berg can terminate across the net, but I think she’s best on the right pin. She can wear down the defense or be a shutdown blocker in whatever position she is hitting or blocking.
Olivia Hasbrook Olivia Hasbrook 5'9" | DS/L Eureka | 2024 State #56 Nation MO – 5’7″ – Libero – Eureka
Stud libero is headed to Ohio State to be a Buckeye and one of the best at this position in the state. A quick, excellent passer and can read the hitters exceptionally well, she gives Eureka an edge with the first contact.
Elise Paul Elise Paul 6'0" | MB Lutheran South | 2023 State MO – 6’0″ – Middle – Lutheran South
Paul is a big bomber for the Lancers, giving them the middle that terminates and quickly gets to the pins. Great footwork and quick transition give her the edge in the middle.
Ella Gaona Ella Gaona 5'6" | DS/L Nerinx Hall | 2023 State MO – 5’7” – Libero – Nerinx Hall
Florida State commit is one fun libero to watch play. She is a high motor libero that controls the court for the Markers. Her passion pours out of her when playing.
Maddie Ozersky – 5’10” – Right-side – Marquette
Maddie is a great attacker on the right pin for the Mustangs. She sees the blockers well, and her line shot is powerful and precise.
