The Central Valley prep star can anchor the left side or slide into the middle, giving 17 Black plenty of frontcourt lineup flexibility.

Hagedorn has locked down the team's opposite position while giving the team a lot more than just terminal attacking. The Omaha Skutt Catholic standout is also an important part of the serve receive pattern and contributes to Synergy's rock-solid ball control. These traits were evident as Hagedorn and [program_tooltip program_id='428717' first='Nebraska' last='ONE'] claimed their Open bid through the Windy City Qualifier.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["516713"],"_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":"Cole has been a steady standout over the past several months. She took part in Gretna East's state tournament effort in the school's inaugural volleyball season last fall. She has now helped Banzai VBC 17 Select produce some of its best volleyball, culminating in a bid-earning triumph at the Windy City Qualifier. Cole's length and athleticism gives Banzai a huge boost along the net, but her skills on first contact are also progressing. Watch out for this talented pin hitter in Vegas.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["395082"],"_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":"Hjemvick knows how to bring the hammer for [program_tooltip program_id='428728' first='River' last='City Jrs'] 17 Navy, but her versatility has also shone through in recent weeks. This hard-hitting pin attacker is developing some nice finesse shots from the left side and can also run different routes for 17 Navy. Side-out situations are an opportunity for Hjemvick to get involved toward the '2' gap in the middle of the net.

This Norris standout also has extensive experience as a defensive specialist and can patrol the middle-back area with great poise.

Sandbothe represents Council Bluffs Abraham Lincoln on the high school side but crosses the river to compete with Premier Nebraska 17 Black. It's a worthy move for this athletic pin hitter who can play on either side of the setter. Sandbothe's prowess on the left side was a major development as her team marched all the way to a Windy City title.

Nebraska Elite 17 Prime also looked toward Woodford to provide some stout wing blocking against aggressive hitters on the qualifier stage.
