She has great length and makes contact with the ball at a very high point, making it very hard for opposing blockers to slow her down. Emmerling likes to hit a quick set at the pin and will hammer the ball straight down if she has the chance, but is also resourceful enough to find other ways to score when the situation calls for it. She's been used as an outside hitter at TAV Houston 17 Adidas and her passing and defensive skills are making the entire team better.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63af04441aac1"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/18934142/6397f5a2ff0353061c682e1e' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63af04441ab0c"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["178811"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Kuehn provides much of the defensive strength TAV Houston 17 Adidas with her reliable and efficient game.

Kuehn also has excellent range on defense, touching on a lot of ball not many others would, and does a fine job when she has to set in transition.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63af04441ab8e"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/15378588/63ac968516008203f8ec50c2' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63af04441abbd"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["254088"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Spikes has emerged as a key player in her high school team Conroe which just had its most successful season ever. Her presence in the middle is always noticeable, especially in the way that she's able to impact the game with her blocking. Spikes is really long and presses really well at the net, but what sets her apart in that category is her quickness to move, which allows her to get to any ball in a better position than many other middles would. She also works really hard on offense and does a very good job in making herself available to her setters no matter what.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63af04441ac2b"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17220195/63ac96844dec8a0f7c3f9768' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63af04441ac49"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["254252"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Coming from a high school season in which she handed more than 1,000 assists in her team Magnolia, Braun runs TAV Houston 17 Adidas' offense. She's a setter who thrives on being reliable, consistent and smart with her ball distribution. Don't expect the flashiest plays from Braun, but be sure that she'll be extremely efficient with her sets and will do an excellent job in terms of placing her hitters in the best possible position to score.

That speaks volumes about her versatility and her ability to step up and deliver. Morgan is very strong physically but also very mobile and her great footwork plays a big role in her success in both roles. She's nearly unstoppable when hitting quick sets in the middle but has adjusted well to the higher ones on the right, using her reach to score. Morgan is also a big and technical blocker, who can make an impact at either position.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63af04441ad05"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17220088/63ac968416008203f8ec5087' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63af04441ad21"} /-->
