Continue ReadingOn March 16, I scouted four matches at the Heart of America Regionals for the 14U Division.
Here is the first report of multiple reports from those matches. Several of the athletes I watched today will find themselves in the initial Kansas Class of 2028 ranking which are scheduled to be released in April.
This report focuses on a group of athletes who play for the Central Kansas Rampage 14-1 squad.
Mikala Minton, 5’6”, S, Great Bend
Minton was one of the best setters I scouted on Saturday. She moves well and communicates better. She set s quiet ball and racked up 12 assists in a two-set win over Electric 14-1. Minton has a quality serve which accounted for two aces. She is also not a defensive liability as she chipped in four digs during the opening match of the day.
Micah Ellegood Micah Ellegood 5'11" | MB Great Bend | 2028 KS , 5’11”, MB, Great Bend
The Great Bend Panthers will be getting a freshman next season who should have an early impact. Ellegood is a lanky and rangy hitter who can play six rotations. She finished with five kills and one block in the match I scouted. Ellegood is quick, light on her feet, and plays composed volleyball.
Bailey Kelly Bailey Kelly 5'7" | RS Great Bend | 2028 KS , 5’7”, RS, Great Bend
Kell and her twin sister Brooklynn are to spunky players to keep and eye on. Bailey is just a tick taller, a step quicker, and a bit more dangerous at the net than her sister. She finished with five kills, five assists, four serve receptions and two digs. She can play multiple positions, including setter.
Brooklynn Kelly, 5’6”, OH, Great Bend
If wanted to start a club team, both of the Kelly sisters would be a solid start to a roster. Brooklynn is more defensive-minded than Bailey. She finished with four serve receptions, three digs, and one kill. The shorter Kelly sister has the better serve of the two. It’s hard and difficult to receive. She had one ace in the match against Electric.
