– 2024 – Outside – Galena
Kaesha is one of the “wow” hitters for Class 1 because they don’t come around often for the tiny schools. She was the only Galena player to have double-digit kills in a match and she finished with 15 in the 3rd place match. Her 30+ inch vertical is very impressive.
Gabriella Meyer – 2026 – Middle – Northwest
The 5’11 middle came out on fire in the first set in the semifinals racking up 7 and finished the match with 15. She would average a double-double with 14 kills and 19 digs during the final four.
Karli Smith – 2024 – Middle – Northwest
Karil would help Northwest to the program best finish with 3rd place and she did it by averaging a double-double with 11 kills and 13 digs in the two matches.

Addison Carlton – 2025 – Outside – Advance
The one thing that Advance has over all other Class 1 teams is a team full of kids that could be top liberos anywhere else. Addison is one of the best defensive players on the team. She would finish with 28 digs and 9 kills during the championship weekend.
Abigail Kennedy – 2024 – Opposite – Advance
No other Class 1 team has an opposite like Abigail. She is 5’9” very athletic and loves the fast tempo sets. It was her play in the third set of the finals that helped the Hornets distance themselves from South Iron to win the championship. She had four key kills to seal the win.
Brogan Wright-Hawkins Brogan Wright-Hawkins 5'4" | DS/L Advance | 2026 MO – Libero – Advance
One of the most underrated players on the team. Brogan is a fantastic libero for Advance and does all the dirty work without the glory. She had 14 digs in the championship and had 16 in the semifinals.
