Ana Cate Loftus - OH | Mintonette m.72 Loftus was among team leaders offensively for Oletangy Liberty throughout the high school season. She is athletic at 5'9 and creates a dynamic approach pattern that can lead big pace when she can get her feet to the ball and contact on balance and at the peak of her jump. With 171 total kills in the fall, she averaged 2.2 kills per set for the 22-5 Patriots.   [player_tooltip player_id='435227' first='Maddie' last='Lambers'] - MH | TSE 17 White The 6'2 Lambers averaged 1.9 kills per set for Seton over the high school season along with 2.6 blocks per match. She has size and length that helps create success for her as she still shows a raw quality to her movement, timing, and arm swing in the air. She has potential to develop into an impact middle as she gains more experience and quickness. Keep an eye on her.   [player_tooltip player_id='239169' first='Jillian' last='Gdovin'] - OH | AVC 17 White Gdovin has good tools as a left side attacker. Her athleticism is noticeable in her approach work and ability to get up and move her arm around for power or finesse upon contact. She averaged 3.8 kills per set for Mayfield in the fall and should make a big impact for this team in her effectiveness and efficiency with more depth of point scoring and ball control around her.   [player_tooltip player_id='114582' first='Ruby' last='Klusman'] - OH | TSE 17 White Klusman improved the quality of her impact on both sides of the ball in her recent high school season for Mercy McAuley. She established herself as a reliable pin point scoring threat through her career best 239 kills for a 2.9 k/s averaged to help the Wolves to a regional semifinals appearance. With terminal skills on both sides of the court, she can be aggressive for power but also has good arm control to score with placement. Her 9.9 digs per match was second best on the team.   [player_tooltip player_id='196364' first='Dakota' last='Spurrier'] - OH | [program_tooltip program_id='431827' first='[program_tooltip program_id='431827' first='Elevation' last='']' last=''] 17 Ulland Spurrier makes the jump to [program_tooltip program_id='431827' first='[program_tooltip program_id='431827' first='Elevation' last='']' last='']'s top 17U team this season. She begins the club season following her best high school campaign for Indian Hill where she terminated 227 kills for a 3.7 k/s average while hitting at a .344 efficiency. At 6'1, she provides some of the best length for this squad and has the ability to score with good pace and movement on the left side. She was second in the Cincinnati Hills league in total kills earning her 1st Team all-league recognition.
