<p>I'll be back for a 2nd straight year to cover the Prep Dig Top 250 in Minnesota and I am excited! The Top 250s have been absolute fire so far whether you are looking at the midwest or the deep south. We all love these expos because we get to see athletes going into the club season or discover that athlete we've never seen before. These events are open to any athlete looking to play at the next level because they will get some exposure. There may be coaches in person and some virtual or access to video depending on their division rules. </p>

<p>A typical Top 250 Expo includes an introduction with the Event Director, and this weekend that should be Emily Foster, the head coach of St. Olaf. Then a warm-up, positional work, 6 vs 6 drills, and of course a lot of fun competitive play. Everything is streamed on BallerTV while I am working hard on social media.</p>

<p>This is where we got a good look at players such as [player_tooltip player_id='194732' first='Liv' last='Myhre'] and how they found ways to connect with other players they may have never even met before.</p>
