[player_tooltip player_id='237000' first='Jenna' last='Cochran'] – 5'6” – 2026 - Pattonville   Pattonville has some big guns on the outside but it's Cochran who runs the defense. In her second year, she became a tough libero leading her team with 57 digs and one of the primary passers. Quick and smart and reads the hitters well.   Jessica Hawkins – 5'7” – 2026 – Festus   Jessica gives her team a great first contact and does it with pinpoint passing. She has a tough jump float serve that pins the passer on the end line and takes up a lot of space when playing defense. Her game is taking off.   [player_tooltip player_id='124215' first='Olivia' last='Hasbrook'] – 5'8” – 2024 - Eureka   Ohio State University is getting a great one next year. Such a tough libero who makes it look easy playing defense and passing. She gets the role and does it extremely well being one of the top libero's in the state. Olivia had 27 digs in the season-opening win over Francis Howell.   Ava Wersching – 5'6” – 2024 – Fort Zumwalt North   In her second match of the season, Ava went for 40 digs in the 3-1 win over Duchesne. Ava is quick to the ball and covers a lot of ground with her speed and quick first step.   [player_tooltip player_id='124854' first='Katie' last='Moore'] – 5'2” – 2024 – Windsor   Katie's been in school forever or at least that's what her opponents think. She is leading the Metro area in digs with 162. In two 3-2 wins over Seckman and Union, she scooped up 33 in each win.
