STL Top Returning Outside Hitter Performances

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='150044' first='Kylie' last='Surratt'] – 2024 – 6'0" – Pattonville</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Surratt is one of those players I like to watch play. She's one of the Pirates' main offensive targets, but her passing and defense make her fun to watch. In a 5-set loss to Francis Howell Central, Kylie would finish with 31 kills on 54 attempts and end the year with 26 double-digit kills.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='216463' first='Brooke' last='Hemmen'] – 2024 –6'0" – Parkway Central</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hemmen gets a ton of swings in, and in a four-set loss to Nerinx Hall, Brooke would take 68 swings and total 30 kills in the loss. A powerful six-rotation outside hitter will make a dangerous attacker at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='195372' first='Catherine' last='Woolf'] – 2024 – 6'1" – North Point</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another powerful outsider with a tremendous performance last year is Woolf. In a four-set win over Orchard Farm, Woolf would hammer 28 kills on 68 attempts. Catherine will leave her mark all over the Grizzlies program and hopes to carry her team into the state playoffs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='168035' first='Reagan' last='Nelson'] – 2025 – 6'0" – Pattonville</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Nelson provides Pattonville with two of the most lethal six rotation outsides in Saint Louis. Nelson is a hard-hitting attacker and passes and plays defense like you need in a top outside. Nelson would finish with 53 attempts and 26 kills in the five-set loss to Howell.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='124216' first='Claire' last='Morrissey'] – 2024 – 6'0" – St. Joseph's Academy</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Morrissey is a thunderous attacker for the Angels and plays outstanding defense. She would rack up 26 kills on 58 attempts in a win over Lutheran. Claire would finish the year with 20 double-digit kill performances and guide her team into the state playoffs. Rated has one of the best outside hitters in the nation. I'm excited to watch her play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
