GameChangers: Stock Up Showcase Top Performers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This content series is sponsored by GameChanger – The Official Scorekeeping, Stats, Team Management &amp; Technology Partner of Prep<em> </em>Dig. M1 Volleyball hosted another great Prep Dig Showcase at their facility in Bloomington. I had a hard time whittling players down to some of the top few. Don't worry, we will have plenty more articles coming out to talk about some of the amazing talent that we saw today!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["231729"],"_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":"Boelter seems quiet until she steps onto the court.  She is very effective at communicating and anticipates the next play.  Boelter maintains control of her platform and creates a lot of nice angles in serve receive.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["396875"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Bjorklund stood out among the setters in all classes.  She not only has great hands and quick footwork but she's good at getting all of her attackers involved whether she knows them or just met them.  Bjorklund is a combo type player where she could play six rotations and either run a 5-1 or bring the heat as another attacker in a 6-2. She brought the energy and smiles today.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":2,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64ceeefd21856"}

really excelled at making quick connections with a number of players.  This stood out to me when I saw DeBoer and [player_tooltip player_id='285237' first='Alice' last='Steman'] make a connection on a quick tempo ball in the middle.  Steman is especially quick and explosive and a quick connection like that is like fireworks.  DeBoer does not have trouble playing six rotations and has a lot of experience running a 5-1.  She has great command of the court and knows how to run an offense with positive body language and important intangibles.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["166358"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Haren was one of the top players in the gym with her ability to elevate and terminate.  She is confident and has a whip for an arm that creates a lot of velocity and she knows just how much topspin to put on the ball.  Haren is an incredibly dynamic athlete that is gearing up for a big fall.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["285235"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Koester

now.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":3,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64ceeefd219ae"}

has a high ceiling as a young player that has already figured out how to be very physical at the net.  She was competing with a lot of grit and it was tough to find someone who could challenge her across the net in the middle.  Gravelle has a high motor and she is really fun to watch.  I'm very excited knowing she is just going into her freshman year.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["230417"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Keaveny
