LONDYN STONE - AVC 16 Red (*pictured) Just 5'9 Stone has some of the best arm speed in this class in Ohio with the ability to score from anywhere on the court. Her physicality includes good lift followed by big pace and movement upon contact. As much as she is a dynamic and aggressive attacker, she also contributes through all six rotations with impact serving, passing and defense. She and her team open play as the #4 seed in the 16 National division.   MACKENZIE PALUMBO - Mintonette m.62 Palumbo recently provided some of her best offensive highlights of the club season in helping this team earn a 3rd place finish at the recent AAU national event in the 16 Premier division. At 6'2 she is a handful for opponents on the right side of the court with her ability to get on top of the ball with power and pace. If she can find space upon contact the ball is on the court in a hurry. Seeded #9 overall 16 USA, they should advance out of their pool as the second seed.   MIA HASTY - TVC 16 Black This team has some big arms throughout their rotation and Hasty has been a good option as the club season has progressed. Her aggressiveness is an area that is noticeably higher and more consistent as she isn't afraid to take big swings for her team. The 5'10 pin has also improved the quality of her hitting range while also contributing defensively and as a primary passer as well. TVC is a team to opponents should be concerned about as Hasty and company compete very well as a unit. They are the 16 National #7 seed.   ELLIE POYNTER - NKVYC 16-2 Tide The 5'10 Poynter has good all-around skills as she has made a lot of gains this club season after moving over to NKYVC. Poynter is among a core group that can take big swings for NKYVC's second 16U squad, the #48 seed in 16 National. The versatility she brings at the pin and through middle options is highlighted by the increased quality of her arm due to her improved approach work and ability to contact well at the top of her jump.   GRACE HERZOG - [program_tooltip program_id='431827' first='Elevation' last=''] 16 Goller The 6'0 Herzog as increasingly become a factor for this team over the course of the club season. Her tools as a middle have improved on both sides of the ball as she has become an aggressive and reliable offensive option while also increasing the efficiency of her blocking mechanics and movement. This group has some of Ohio's best arms around her and adding steady impact from Herzog makes them increasingly dangerous. The are the #17 seed in 16 Open.
