Ella is a powerhouse lefty pin who has a huge vertical and a high contact point. She is a consistent force on the right side and can manufacture points. Ella impressed me on both days of the Sizzle with her shot selection, ability to earn points in out of system situations, and her low number of errors.
Jana was a powerhouse on the court. Not just in her swing but her serve as well. She racked up point after point from the service line and played great defense after her serve. She had huge energy on the court and was an absolute dominant athlete on the court. She puts up a big block and is always available on offense.
Highlights
Kendra is a powerhouse pin hitter with the potential to be a high-level six rotation player. She has great fundamentals and is already an impact player on this talented Bay Port team. Kendra picks great shots and executes very well.
Addie has exploded onto my radar this season. She had a huge club season with Sting United, made the High Performance team, and is playing on a very talented and experienced Edgewood team. She has a high volleyball IQ and is one of the top athletes in the state. She has the potential to be a huge leader for Edgewood who could be a huge contender on the state level this season.
Highlights
Audrey is a talented middle with a high ceiling. She is quick and disciplined across the net. Audrey closes the block consistently and puts up a great first line of defense for her team. She is also an offensive dynamo and is a big point-earner in the front row.
Highlights
Lauren is a physical middle who has massive potential. She has a huge vertical and a high contact on the ball. She was dominating on offense and always made herself available for a set. Lauren was taking momentum-changing swings on the ball and shut down a lot of opposing hitters with her block.
Highlights
Ava has leveled up her game in an amazing way. She sets for high school but is a libero/DS for club. These positions complement each other so well. At the Sizzle she was all over the court – her defense was amazing and she picked up some tough balls. Ava has clean hands and great placement of her sets.
Highlights
Grace had a hugely successful club season and is looking primed and ready to go for the upcoming high school season. She has great court awareness and moves the ball around cleanly and efficiently. She keeps her hitters moving by setting a fast pace on her sets. Grace is consistent, hard to read, and a leader for her team.
Teegan was a huge leader at the Sizzle. Their varsity team had a lot of up and coming athletes and Teegan was key for them on the pin. She was consistent, explosive, and made some great shots. Her pass to attack was awesome and she was always giving 100% on every play.
Highlights
Tristan Wicklund
Tristan Wicklund
Tristan is a physical and offensive player. She actually played on the right side last year but was setting at the Sizzle. Tristan is pure athletic power and potential. She has great court awareness and is not afraid to turn and take a swing when she is in the front row. She really impressed me as a leader and athlete at the Sizzle.
Isabel Baudhuin
Isabel Baudhuin
Isabel was a go-to hitter at the Sizzle. She had powerhouse swings but was able to slow it down on serve receive to put up a great pass. Isabel was lethal in transition and dominant across the front row. She really impressed me in all of her skills and as an impact athlete on a very talented team.
