Sutake attends Westfield High School and is the best hitter I have seen at the expo. She can utilize bad sets from anywhere on the court, her slide is amazing, she hits with high intensity and hard, and she loves to aim for defenders’ hands. She looked really good.

Tolliver attends North Central High School and is a very smart athlete. She is very quick in her play and has great vision on the court. She is a playmaker on the court, meaning if things are not working she can step in and make it work. Definitely a player with intangible qualities often looked for in recruits.

Christner attends Western Boone High School and is a 6’2″ right-side player. What sets her apart from other players is her ability to think on her feet. She has smart tips and nasty blocks, and she can adjust to whatever is coming at her on the court. She made it look easy working with setters she has never worked with before, which is an impressive task.
Ella Brucker

Annis

South Bend Saint Joseph | 2024

Annis attends Saint Joseph High School and appears to be a 6-rotation outside. She deserves a shout-out for making me look at her positional preference again since she was playing in the back row so well.
