USA GJNC Showcase – Top Performers Vol 5

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We are so pumped to renew our partnership with USA Volleyball.&nbsp; We were super excited to run our first session of the USA GJNC Pre Tourney Showcase in conjunction with the USA Junior Nationals Tournament on Tuesday June 27^th.&nbsp; We had some of the best players from all over the country attend from the 13's through 15's age groups.&nbsp; Many players stood out to our court coaches and scouts throughout the entire showcase for a variety of reasons.&nbsp; Some players stood out for their dynamic physical skills and some stood out for intangibles like leadership, effort and attitude.&nbsp; Let's meet a few of the players who earned the honor of Top Performer at the showcase.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='391123' first='Stella' last='Wishon'] [2027] 6-2 Outside (HS: Community Christian/Club: Oklahoma Charge/Verbal: Uncommitted)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stella is currently an unranked prospect in the 2027 Class according to our Prep Dig Oklahoma State Rankings, but that is only because we have not released them yet.  Once we do, she will have no problem being listed.  She plays for Community Christian High School and also club for the nationally recognized Oklahoma Charge volleyball program. Miss Wishon was phenomenal throughout the entire night and was nominated my many of our court coaches and scouts we had on hand.  Most will notice her height but when you watch her play, you will find a very skilled young lady who has so much potential.  It is my professional opinion that she has the chance to be one of the top players to come out of Oklahoma in her age group if she continues on this upward trend of excelling on the court.  Very few opponents could slow her down during the scrimmage portion of the showcase.  Out of the 270 players who attended it, she definitely stood out for her play at the net.  We are proud to announce that she has earned a Top Performer award from this showcase. <strong><a href="https://prepdig.com/player/alyssa-manitzas/"></a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='333421' first='Madison' last='Hendricks']&nbsp;[2025] 6-0 Middle (HS: West Orange/Club: OTVA/Verbal: Uncommitted)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"right","id":328735,"width":84,"height":126,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2023/02/133-Madison-Hendricks.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-328735" width="84" height="126" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Madison is an unranked prospect in the 2025 Class according to our Prep Dig Florida State Rankings, but is on our official watch list.&nbsp; She plays at West Orange High School and also plays for the nationally recognized OTVA club program. &nbsp;Miss Hendricks is no stranger to us as we have seen her in a few of our showcases.&nbsp; She continues to prove her worth on the court with awesome play at the net.&nbsp; I love how she uses her raw natural power on both the blocking end and on the offensive side of the ball also.&nbsp; She is a smart attacker who can bang with the best of them and also see the holes in the defense and use some power tips around the block.&nbsp; I also love that she plays the game with a smile on her face and celebrates her teammates well.&nbsp; Her awesome attitude is contagious and it infects her teammates who also tend to have a good time playing with her.&nbsp; We will be keeping our eye on her very closely and you should also.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award from our showcase.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Anna Hansen [2026] 5-9 Outside (HS: Westosha Central/Club: Sky High/Verbal: Uncommitted)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Anna is currently an unranked prospect in the 2026 Class according to our Prep Dig Wisconsin State Rankings, but she is listed on our official watch list.&nbsp; She plays at Westosha Central High School and also for the famed Sky High volleyball program.&nbsp; I love how she uses fast footwork during her transition and hardly ever has her heels hit the floor.&nbsp; This will ensure that she is not sticking on the ground and bounces off of it really quick.&nbsp; By being fast at her transition, she will always be ready to attack with her full power.&nbsp; Her hand contact is superb and it allows her to direct the ball anywhere she wants it to go.&nbsp; Miss Hansen also showed off her stifling serve a few times and it looks like it is very difficult to pass.&nbsp; It is low to the tape and has some great movement in the air.&nbsp; She would be a great asset to any team as she can play both pins and attack with power from both.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award from our showcase.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There are many more amazing players that will be written about.&nbsp; Stay tuned for more articles on your favorite athletes.&nbsp; If you have anyone you think we should watch out for, please shoot me an email with some info at <a href="mailto:Michael@prepdig.com">Michael@prepdig.com</a>.&nbsp; Also don't forget to help these kids get more exposure by sharing our stories with your friends.&nbsp; Help us help them by simply retweeting on Twitter or sharing on Facebook.&nbsp; Thanks for following Prep Dig Family!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
