I had the opportunity to see her play at nationals where she impressed in every rotation. She has high-level fundamentals and has the potential to play all six rotations. She is an explosive offensive weapon in both the front and back row. Kaitlin is an athlete to watch in this class - her athleticism and dynamic level of play will be huge assets as she continues to play at a high level.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["249645"],"_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":"Callie has really exploded onto the scene in the past year. She has developed into a powerhouse right side who can also set. Callie was a key player during the club season and has earned some playing time on the DSHA varsity team. Callie is an athlete who is full of potential to be a great player. She was selected for the Badger Region High Performance camp this past summer and has been competing with and against the best in the state.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["376307"],"_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":"Sierra is a talented pin hitter who I saw play at nationals this year.

She is hitting a 0.146 on the season and is the only sophomore on the team. Sierra has a lot of talent and will be fun to watch continue to impress over the next few years.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["284069"],"_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":"Lizzy is a talented setter who has soft hands, good ball control, and great court vision. She utilizes all of her hitters. She has played in some capacity in about half of Oconomowoc's varsity matches this fall so far.

She ranks second in blocks and hitting percentage and third in kills on her team.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64fa1ed653a66"} /-->
