<p>What an efficient, talented and fast team. Reigning AAU champs from the 14s division, this squad has their sights set on a bigger podium at GJNCs. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='260994' first='Calista' last='Foster'] ('26, 5-9 OH)</strong> is probably the most complete player of the bunch, and is a six-rotation beast. Very smooth and highly intelligent, her pass-to-attack transition is second to none in this class. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='210191' first='Reese' last='Resmer'] ('26, 5-11 MB)</strong> was named the MVP of that AAU championship last summer, and for good reason. Springy, strong and smart, Reese can defend from pin to pin as easily as she puts balls away. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='260995' first='Caroline' last='Ward'] ('27, 6-0 RS)</strong> is the baby of the group, but certainly doesn't play like it. Her six foot frame, coupled with high-end athleticism, makes her a prime candidate to be the #1 recruit in the class of '27.</p>

<p>Earning the National bid from the Pioneer Region, this band of sisters plays the game the right way, with an excellent grasp of the basics. They all do every volleyball movement well, and it's obvious to this author the work ethic involved to do so. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='209451' first='Maddie' last='Carnes'] ('26, 5-10 S)</strong> runs the show, and locates the ball at an open level. In high school, she's asked to attack, but her heart (and her future) lie with setting. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='298601' first='Ellie' last='Scharlow'] ('26, 5-11 OH)</strong> is a big and strong pin attacker that could probably play either pin at the next level. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='226808' first='Addison' last='Jones'] ('26, 6-0 MB/RS)</strong> looks and plays like an M2, as she does well off of two feet and can defend from pin to pin because of her superior length.</p>
