Emily Barr
Barr is a 6′ middle blocker from Frontier High School. Barr impressed me with her timing. Barr was spot on as soon as she got to the preview. She has a ton of raw talent and I cannot wait to see her growth in the next two years. She has strong hands in conjunction with the timing I mentioned before. She is a no on letting a ball get past her. She has power and is good at hitting it straight down the middle over her opponent’s block. She was impressive to watch at this event.
Piper Coady Piper Coady 6'0" | OH Newport Harbor | 2028 CA
Coady is a 6′ outside hitter from Newport Harbor High School. Coady was surprising for me at the event tonight. I did not see her as a power hitter when I first started watching her court. But she does have power. She has a great vertical, an amazing swing, and is powerful with precision when she hits. She is a smart athlete and can avoid the block in front of her and still get the ball down on the court. It will be exciting to watch this player develop over the next couple of seasons as she adjusts to high school.
Ameira Hardin Ameira Hardin 5'8" | OH Frontier | 2028 CA
Hardin is a 5’8″ outside hitter from Frontier High School. Hardin has power and a great vertical. Her timing is great and she is very athletic. She will be an impactful player whenever she is on the court in whatever position she is in on the court. She is that good. She is one I would keep my eye on to see how much more she develops while in her high school years.
Josslyn Jacks Josslyn Jacks 5'11" | OH EM Speed And Power | 2028 CA
Jacks is a 5’11” outside hitter from EM Speed Middle School. She is a powerful hitter at the net and a good blocker as well. She has speed and athleticism and will grow as an athlete as she matures in the next couple of years. She is already an impressive athlete and seems smart and aggressive on the court.
Madison Kostich
Kostich is a 5’9″ right-side hitter from Mater Dei High School. She is very effective at the net with an impressive vertical and great timing for the block. She has quick footwork, good ball placement, and can really open up for a well-placed shot at her opponent’s court. She can block, dig, and set well when called upon. She is a smart player and could be used anywhere on the court.
Trinity Naden
Naden is a 5’10” outside hitter from Liberty High School. Naden has a great vertical and a long reach. She plays well in the middle as well as the outside. She can hit anywhere on the court with ease. She is a talented athlete with a determination that gets her the points. She does not give up ever and is always trying to make an impact on the court whether by digging, hitting, blocking, or even setting, she is an impact player everywhere on the court. I cannot wait to see her development as she progresses through her high school years.
Raneighla Gonzalez Raneighla Gonzalez 5'11" | MB Heritage Christian | 2028 CA
Gonzalez is a 5’11” middle blocker from Heritage Christian High School. Gonzalez has strong hands that are large enough to cause a problem for most hitters around her. She has great timing and a good vertical that enable her to get in the way of opponents at the net. She is a quick-footed athlete with the ability to move fast to get back up after a first attempt. She always seems ready to hit as well. She is very athletic and has a high volleyball IQ that she puts to good use on the court. She also learns quickly about her opponents and knows who she is facing in all situations.
