<p><strong>Kylie Crowe – 2024 - STL Notre Dame</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I've not found much information on Kylie, but she had a monster match over Duchesne. She would finish with 63 assists and four kills in the 5-set win. I heard from one coach that she is a hidden gem in Saint Louis. Crowe finished last year with 19 games with 30+ assists.</p>

<p>Kaitlyn is a smooth operator. She has excellent hands, a high volleyball IQ, a team leader, and an all-around solid volleyball player. The Cougars will always be in the mix come playoffs, with Kaitlyn running the show. In a 5-set win over Northwest, she would finish with 56 assists and six kills.</p>

<p><strong>Brooke Leesmann – 2024 - Borgia</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Here's a player that I watched play against Pacific, where she had a great outing. Leesman took over this match, running a 6-1, and gave her Knights a 3-2 victory. She is short but quick with soft hands; you can tell she's a coach's kid.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='241916' first='Brecklyn' last='Koeller'] – 2024 - Hermann</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Koeller comes from Class 2 powerhouse Hermann, and I watched her at the final four. I've stated before she's not a flashy player but one that does her job and does it well. In a 3-1 win over Hickman, Koeller would finish with 55 assists and two kills. Brecklyn will be part of a Hermann team looking for another trip to the final four.</p>
