<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We are super excited to partner with USA Volleyball once again to run the official college recruiting showcase for the USA Volleyball Girls Junior National Championships. &nbsp;The second session was held on July 7^th at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas, NV. &nbsp;The one aspect that sets our showcases apart from every other one in the country is how we offer coverage, before, during, and after it is completed.&nbsp; This series of articles will discuss those special players that stood out for various reasons to our court coaches and scouts.&nbsp; They have won our prestigious Top Performer award.&nbsp; Let's meet the winners!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='433625' first='Ava' last='Perrin'] [2027] 5-8 Outside (HS: Lovejoy/Club: Frisco Flyers/Verbal: Uncommitted)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ava is currently an unranked prospect in the 2027 Class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings, but is on our official Watch List.&nbsp; She plays volleyball at the famed Lovejoy High School and also plays for the Frisco Flyers volleyball club. &nbsp;Miss Perrin is a solid six rotation outside hitter who can do a lot on the court for any team she plays for. &nbsp;Her court coaches were really impressed with how she was able to play both front row and back row at a high level.&nbsp; The way she uses her arms during her approach help to get her up in the air an extra couple of inches.&nbsp; Her back row play is what really drew a lot of coaches to marvel at.&nbsp; She uses her platform very well to rebound the ball with great angles.&nbsp; The other aspect that I truly liked was how she used all of her body to keep the ball in play.&nbsp; Her emergency techniques while digging help keep her team in every rally.&nbsp; She is not afraid to get on the floor if need be and sacrifice her body for the betterment of the team.&nbsp; Her swing is lethal also and scores well for any squad she attacks for.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='528537' first='Charleston' last='Hermann']&nbsp;[2027] 6-1 Outside (HS: Cardinal Mooney/Club: Sarasota Juniors/Verbal: Uncommitted)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Charlee is currently an unranked prospect in the 2027 Class according to our Prep Dig Florida State Rankings, but that is only because they have not been released yet.&nbsp; She plays volleyball at Cardinal Mooney High School and club for the Sarasota Juniors volleyball program. &nbsp;Miss Hermann stole the show on her court as she was a beast at the net scoring at will.&nbsp; As a scout, it is nice to see such a young player with a very tall and strong frame move very smoothly on the court in her position.&nbsp; She is blessed with an absolute cannon for a right arm. &nbsp;What I love is how she is able to hit every shot on the left side pin and also come around for second tempo shots out of the middle. &nbsp;She takes a picturesque approach and caps it off with an electric down swing for the kill.&nbsp; Her attitude was fun to watch as you can tell she truly loves to play the game.&nbsp; Her blocking was also elite as she shut down many players at the net.&nbsp; Due to her ability to play back row, she is a diamond find for any coach to start watching now.&nbsp; In my humble opinion, she will be a star, so you should be writing her name down as a player to watch. &nbsp;Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award at the showcase.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Emily Avila&nbsp;[2027] 5-4 Setter (HS: American Canyon/Club: Club Solano/Verbal: Uncommitted)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Emily is currently an unranked prospect in the 2027 class according to our Prep Dig California State Rankings, but turned some heads with her play at the showcase.&nbsp; She plays volleyball at American Canyon High School and also for the Club Solano program.&nbsp; Miss Avila played very big despite her five foot four height.&nbsp; She is not to be denied on the volleyball court if she has anything to say about it.&nbsp; It didn't matter where the ball was passed because she was tracking it down very well.&nbsp; She played exceptional defense out of right back when needed.&nbsp; The way she moved the ball around to all of her hitters was impressive.&nbsp; I liked how she was ready to do anything on the court to keep the ball in play and deliver it to her hitters.&nbsp; She even had the ability to set one-handed to the middle a few times during out of system passes that were very close to the net.&nbsp; All in all, she possesses soft hands that look identical to each other when contacting and releasing the ball.&nbsp; Her court coaches were impressed with her play and nominated her for the award.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on earning the Top Performer award for this showcase.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stay tuned for more articles on your favorite athletes that excelled at the showcase.&nbsp;
