Either way, Gish is poised to have another standout season with a group that has already had its share of national success.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["173523"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Let's check in with another Nebraska Elite athlete who has produced some highlight moments along the net. Layson put her high-flying style on full display during Nebraska Elite's 15 Open breakthrough last season, and we can expect another successful campaign for the Omaha Duchesne standout.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["189347"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"We've recently discussed how Livingston played a big part in helping Papillion-La Vista South secure back-to-back state titles this year. The sophomore's consistency on the pin was an integral part of Papio South's balanced attack. Now, Livingston can exhibit a similar influence with Premier Nebraska as her club looks to carry on a string of success at the 16s level.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["155057"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Let's move over to the Nebraska Juniors gym. This club has a wealth of physical middle blockers that we'll be featuring throughout the spring, and Ottemann is undoubtedly one of those. The Johnson-Brock prep athlete is coming off a 200-kill sophomore campaign and will prove her worth yet again on the club side.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["155051"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Osmera is one of several VCNebraska 2025 pin hitters who are poised for big strides in the upcoming club season. This Wahoo standout already knows how to shoulder plenty of attacking volume, as she put down over 300 kills this fall to become one of the state's most productive sophomores. Expect that same leadership from Osmera in 2023.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["155038"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"You could already call Mayer a breakout player based on what she did with Omaha Marian this fall. She showed her well-rounded backcourt game by passing plenty of balls and wielding a wicked serve from behind the line. Nebraska Elite will be happy to have that production from Mayer at the 16s level.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["189326"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"Time to bring Nebraska ONE into the mix. Gable played a variety of roles on last year's 15 Synergy team, from right-back defender to emergency frontcourt opposite. Under any circumstances, Gable succeeded. I'm excited to see the Norris athlete bring that same energy to this year's squad.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_7_player":["155040"],"_player_evaluations_7_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"Kucks has long been a dominant all-around pin hitter for Premier Nebraska, and that's while also playing up an age group. Her fearless attitude as a left-side hitter is matched by her ability to take over matches as a backcourt defender. That's the kind of leader you want on your side of the net.","_player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_8_player":["216100"],"_player_evaluations_8_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"On to River City!
