They also impressed me with their talented blocking abilities. Here are some impact middles from the Missouri/Kansas Top 250 Expo.
Bailey was unstoppable at the expo. On both the pin and in the middle, she dominated. Her sheer endurance was impressive to watch as she blocked across the net and transitioned seamlessly to offense. She is also a talented passer. Bailey never missed a beat at the Expo and was one of the top players who attended.

Shaylee is a very talented middle who was athletic and physical at the net. She has a heavy hand on the ball and could swing some incredibly tough angles. Shaylee caught my eye when she made some awesome heads-up plays at the net.
Khylie has a huge amount of potential. She has a high contact point and tracks the ball well along the net. Her aggressiveness at the net set her apart, and she was always ready for the next play. Khylie took some rotations on the pin, where she made an impact as well.
Highlights
It is crazy to think Madeline is only a freshman. She plays with the maturity and poise of someone older than she is. Her endurance was impressive, and she was lethal both in front of and behind the setter. From drills through scrimmage play, Madeline was explosive and consistent. She is a powerhouse player to watch.
Madison is another very talented middle in the class of 2027. She is very disciplined at the net and puts up a massive and nearly impenetrable block. I loved how aggressive she was running a slide, even when the setter was off the net. Madison never missed an opportunity to terminate on offense and caused some big issues for opposing hitters with her block.
Highlights
Molly is a middle with huge potential. She was always engaged and available as an option for her hitters. She thrived in scrimmage play and was very competitive throughout the Expo. Molly made some solid heads-up plays at the net and is not a player you want to overpass on.
