Faris can and will attack from anywhere and score points at will. She is a very explosive attacker and she’s got the experience deep in the post season to go with it. Faris is a physical player at the net and she can certainly overpower her opponents when needed. She has the Viking’s rolling after a 3-0 win over MACRAY on Monday. Their first Section opponent will be Dawson-Boyd who just eliminated Lac qui Parle Valley 3-0 on Monday. Faris will be looking at taking a lot of swings over the next couple weeks.
Meyer is a solid and dependable 1st contact for Cleveland. She leads the Clippers with 414 digs so far this season and allows the Hahn sisters to take over after a sound 1st contact. The Clippers have senior, Greta Hahn, as an athletic setter who knows just how to feed her little sister. Junior, Ava Hahn, is an explosive jumper and takes a huge swing from anywhere on the court. They’ve already taken out New Ulm Cathedral and prepare to take on BOLD in the next round on Thursday. Meyer will be key to keeping the Clipper offense in system and providing big defensive plays.
Highlights
Keaveny is a defender that covers a ton of court. She is really fast and makes big plays look really routine. Keaveny can do just about everything and I’ve seen her taking swings on the pins more and more lately. Mayer Lutheran has already claimed their first victim, GFW, 3-0. They will take on Buffalo Lake-Hector-Stewart on Thursday to move on. Keaveny leads the squad with 436 digs so far this season and adds 32 aces. She is a key first contact so her sister, Izabelle Keaveny Izabelle Keaveny 5’9″ | S Mayer Lutheran | 2026 State MN can run the offense in system with Hallie Hunter and Danica Martin Danica Martin 5’11” | MB Mayer Lutheran | 2024 State MN out of the middle. And if not, Courtney Tuttle waiting on the outside to terminate.
Highlights
Untiedt is committed to South Dakota State to play as a libero but as a true athlete she can do just about anything. She’s taken on the setting role for the Coyotes this season. Untiedt is a solid all around player that knows how to win and wants to make a deep postseason run. She can dish, defend, and score points from the service line. Untiedt is a gritty leader and hard to stop.
Becker puts up a big block at the net for the Coyotes. She can also score in a variety of ways for HLOF. Becker mixes it up in order to score points and keep her team serving. Becker and Untiedt could eventually end up facing Russell-Tyler-Ruthton and the fire power of Abigail Carr Abigail Carr 5’10” | OH Russell-Tyler-Ruthton | 2024 State MN and Allyson Nelson Allyson Nelson MB Russell-Tyler-Ruthton | 2024 State MN . But first they take on Murray County Central on Friday!
Carr is an outside hitter that can terminate at the net or put away the point with an ace. RTR has taken on some tough competition this season and have proven to be fundamentally sound while playing a difficult schedule. Carr along with Allyson Nelson Allyson Nelson MB Russell-Tyler-Ruthton | 2024 State MN create a lot of issues for opposing defenders.
Highlights
Hellickson is a lefty that has a wicked float serve to the corners. She also leads the Falcons with 332 digs so far this season. With Hellickson on defense and Alyssa Britton on offense this squad could do some serious damage. They will square off with Wabasha-Kellogg on Thursday night!
