Rennerfeldt has seen the biggest prep stages that Nebraska has to offer, as she started her career with a historic state title in 2021. The Oakland-Craig junior is compiling a head-spinning 11.4 assists per set this season, besting almost everyone in the state regardless of class. Rennerfeldt blazes the trail for small-town 2025s.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["173537"],"_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":"Let's stay at the setter spot. We've always known that Waido could compete at a high level, whether it was with Wahoo on the prep side or [program_tooltip program_id='428743' first='VCNebraska' last=''] in club. Waido brings an aggressive approach to her setting that elevates the Warriors to another level. She's putting out a career-best 8.7 assists per set as a junior and is sure to impress in some high-stakes matches to come.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["269908"],"_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":"Miller has becoming a dominant force in just about every phase. She is averaging a kill per set more than last year's output and has also brought her attacking efficiency to the 0.300 threshold. But, when she's not churning out clutch sideouts for Seward, Miller is locking down the net with her blocking and positive touches. She's the anchor in the middle that has catalyzed a special 19-4 season for the Bluejays. There's still work to do.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["213984"],"_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":"Steady improvement has defined Mostek's tenure at Blair. She is already about to eclipse her kill total from last year with several more matches ahead of her. This multi-sport athlete offers further testament of how quickly players can develop with more reps and experience.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["189902"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Freeman is getting plenty of shoutouts on these features, and the talent level is clearly rising for the 19-3 Falcons. Goes locks down the team's backcourt with nearly five digs per set and even more valuable contributions as a primary passer. We saw signs of Goes' improvement with Nebraska Juniors this spring. The momentum is still real.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["269961"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Back to Seward. The Bluejays have some successful attackers along the net, but we can't forget about Covalt's role in helping those players shine. Covalt was one of our biggest 2025 stock risers during the club season when she patrolled the end line for [program_tooltip program_id='428717' first='Nebraska' last='ONE']. She's now solidifying Seward's floor defense with over four digs per set, and we could see that excellence on the state tournament stage yet again.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["269954"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"Howells-Dodge may have lost some impactful seniors from last season's title-winning team, but there's still a savvy veteran in the Jaguar backcourt. Bayer's numbers have dramatically escalated this year, and she's now compiling over five-and-a-half digs per set as the team's libero. The junior's impact spans far beyond her first contacts, as Bayer can step in and become a reliable secondary setter. It's everything you'd want from your libero.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_7_player":["189374"],"_player_evaluations_7_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"Platteview knows all about impactful attackers. Plueger has been on a tear for the Trojans ever since last year, when she put up about three kills per set as an underclassman. She has maintained the same clip in 2023 and has upped her efficiency in doing so. This Nebraska Elite product will never waver.","_player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_8_player":["342566"],"_player_evaluations_8_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"Malcolm's balanced front row is hard to stop, especially when Schroeder is finding her groove. The junior has become a go-to scoring threat for the Clippers and is tallying 2.5 kills per set this season. Schroeder is the kind of athlete who's not accustomed to losing, and she'll likely lead her 21-2 squad to another postseason appearance this November.","_player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":9,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-651c82786d878"} /-->
