Top 25s Available At Circle City

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Club tryouts are done, rosters are set, and schedules have been, well, scheduled. We'll put together a series of articles highlighting each major club in Indiana, as long as their rosters are made available (***ahem***). Here are nine athletes from the class of '25 that are available to play at the next level, with the skills worth watching.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">18 Purple</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The flagship roster at Circle has its fair share of commits. That being said, a pair of 25s are worth mentioning. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='173242' first='Keira' last='Lucas'] ('25, 5-10 OH, Northview)</strong> is a springy primary passer who can put balls away in any tempo and at any angle. She's the main reason for Northview's continued success in volleyball, and is already used to a heavy workload. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='155214' first='Reanna' last='Lee'] ('25, 5-11 MB, McCutcheon)</strong> has been the main middle for the Mavericks for some time now, and can be in either middle position in the fall of 25. She does well to see angles to attack when in front of the setter, and is quick to go behind the setter for one-footed attacks. I also like her ability to defend from pin to pin, as she plays bigger than her 5-11 frame would dictate.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">18 Black</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A ton of talent resides all over this squad. I'm especially high on <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='173245' first='Isabelle' last='Brown'] ('25, 5-9 S, Avon),</strong> who would readily go through a wall to get a hittable ball up on the second contact. Highly coachable and very athletic, Miss Brown is an easy plug-and-play option for a 5-1 system at the next level. <strong>Camryn McCollum ('25, 5-10 MB, Avon)</strong> is a high school teammate of Isabelle's, and has athleticism to burn. Her explosiveness and jumping ability is second to none for the Orioles, and her long arms help make some blocks obsolete when she attacks. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">17 Purple</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The top 17s team at Circle has a host of talent and potential. Rarely do I talk about DS's this early in the recruiting process, but both <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='152932' first='Bella' last='Dafforn'] ('25, 5-4 DS/L, Lawrence North)</strong> and <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='173244' first='Eva' last='Hurrle'] ('25, 5-4 DS/L, Roncalli)</strong> are worth mentioning. Both can play any of the three back row positions on defense, and both have the exceptional ability to anticipate attacks early and often. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='192107' first='Sadie' last='Poeck'] ('25, 6-0 OH, Zionsville)</strong> is a long and lean outside that could play either pin at the next level. She uses her max jump and long arms to beat blocks regularly, while also having a balanced all-around game to make her that much more recruitable. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='173243' first='Ellen' last='Zapp'] ('25, 5-11 OH, Center Grove)</strong> was the primary attacker for 4A Top Ten CG this past fall. Although she's listed as playing any of the front row positions, she showed her best stuff as a left side attacker that hits a terminal ball with pace regularly. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='487338' first='Lauren' last='Wilson'] ('25, 6-0 OH, New Castle)</strong> was a five-kills-per-set attacker for New Castle this past fall, and will look to do the same in her senior season. She can hit any shot in the book from heavy tooling attacks to roll shots to sharp angles and high lines. In some matches this past fall, she seemed to look STRONGER as the match went on, rarely tiring out. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
