<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Ava had a great freshman year for the Eagles and she finished third in kills with 186 and first in blocks with 66. She is an athletic middle who loves the quick balls and she sees the block well. She will have a bigger role this year being the top returning attacker.</p>

<p>Third on the team in kills with 137 and second in digs Jenkins has the potential to become a big player for the Indians. The work ethic is there and she has a big upside to her game. Watch as she develops into a solid middle for Class 2 Russellville.</p>

<p><strong>Jenna Owen – 5'9” - Carrollton</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Owen has the potential to develop into a force for Carrollton out of the middle. She needs to improve her swing but her volleyball IQ is there. With more experience, she will be a solid middle for the Trojans.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='490134' first='Sophie' last='Frank'] – 5'9” - Lafayette County</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Lafayette County has had solid players over the last few years and Frank will become one of the better players for the Huskers. She has great vertical, transitions well, and has power and will develop into a beast out of the middle.</p>

<p><strong>Mila Perez – 5'10” – Hallsville</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Perez is still raw but will give Hallsville a big-time player over her career. Athletic ability, court awareness, and approach are on point, but more experience will give Hallsville a tough middle.</p>
