One of the top playmakers in the entire state, Polivka has been in excellent form this season and her guidance and production have been huge for the Indians. The setter has tallied impressive numbers with her assists (1,256 and counting), but has also been effective in other areas, leading the team in aces (62) and ranking second in blocks (71) and fourth in digs (284).","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/13485127/634c6b0964df6203a4fae9a5' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["176642"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Dewine is another setter who plays a massive role in her team. One of the leaders of a strong The Woodlands team which is set to make its first State Tournament appearance in five years, she can execute a lot of different skills at the highest level. Always calm and focused, Dewine is undoubtedly a reference for the Highlanders, who rely on her to succeed. She's been having a fantastic senior season, having tallied 679 assists, 425 kills, 44 aces, 71 blocks and 417 digs.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16623732/617b0dd6688f160344d34174' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["87549"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Tompkins have several players with incredible talent in their roster, but if there's one of them with the potential to take a match over against anyone, that's Tchouangwa. The athletic right side hitter has been a force at the net and has delivered excellent performances in the playoffs, scoring in bunches and in critical moments for the Falcon. Due to her background as an outside hitter, Tchouangwa is also having solid contributions with her passing and defense too. She leads the team in kills (590) and blocks (51) and ranks second in digs (504) and fourth in passes (362).","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/13178683/63689cfaab92150b482ec283' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["87537"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Plante has guided Dripping Springs to the State Tournament in the first season in division 6A with her excellent all-around game and massive productivity during the entire season.
