Club Preview: AVC 17 Red

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are five athletes to see from this squad over the club season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='114595' first='Julia' last='Sprecher'] </strong>- OH<br>Sprecher is an athletic pin hitter that elevates well and can move the ball around with her arm. The LSU Beach commit has all the tools to contribute anywhere around the floor whether as an attacker or in the serve/pass and defensive phases. She was big part of Magnificat's success in 2022 as she averaged a team high 3.6 kills per set while also collecting 7.2 digs per match.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='169128' first='Hannah' last='Pattie']</strong> - S<br>The Campbell commit led her high school team to the Ohio DIII state title in 2022 in convincing fashion. She had a career high 1,014 total assists as the Lake Catholic offense was dominant all season in large part due to Pattie's ability to distribute with precision, speed, and good decision-making. She could be the biggest factor for this team given what she can do in generating good balance of opportunities for her attackers from pin to pin.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='139300' first='Alexa' last='Strandberg']</strong> - OH<br>At 6'3, Strandberg has good size to be a terminal threat at the pins. She averaged 2.7 kills per set for Copley in 2022 as she can score through the faster tempo options with good power when she can successfully step-close to the ball. She can also go get a high out-of-system set with good contact point at the top of her jump that challenges defenses well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='198487' first='Natalie' last='Robinson']</strong> - MH<br>Robinson comes over to the this team after playing for Eastside a season ago. The 6'4 middle will provide offense and defense with her length. When developing timing, combined with good space off of the net, she can move the ball around well when attacking. Robinson averaged 2.2 kills per set and 2.7 blocks per match over the recent high school season for Hudson. She is committed to Rutgers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='114591' first='Emily' last='Ragon']</strong> - MH<br>Ragon has an aggressive arm in the air as she likes to take heavy swings around her setter. She has good athleticism in her quickness and pursuit of the attack, especially overhead off of one foot. She pairs with Robinson to create a tough middle duo that can score and defend and will help create space for their pins offensively.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
