USAV GJNC Showcase Session II – Top Performers Vol 2

<!-- 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='433626' first='Cadence' last='Negron'] [2027] 5-2 Libero (HS: Troy/Club: Waco Jrs/Verbal: Uncommitted)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cadence is currently ranked as the 65^th best overall prospect in the 2027 Class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings.&nbsp; She plays volleyball at Troy High School and also plays for the Waco Juniors volleyball club. &nbsp;Miss Negron is very well known by us at Prep Dig as she has attended our showcases before.&nbsp; We have also watched her perform all season long and she has wowed us with her play.&nbsp; During the showcase, her court coaches marveled at how fast she was moving around the court.&nbsp; Her footwork is very quick and very well-balanced.&nbsp; The way she communicates on the court proves just how valuable she is to any team she competes with.&nbsp; It adds so much more than just contacting the ball.&nbsp; This kind of back row leadership is the cornerstone of every great championship level team and that is exactly what you get with Cadence's presence on a court.&nbsp; We love the way she competes hard at her position and cheers on her teammates.&nbsp; Her attitude on the court was very present even though &nbsp;she was playing with players she has never met before.&nbsp; That just goes to show you that this is exactly who she is as a player and it should be commended.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Brooke Badorek&nbsp;[2028] 6-1 Setter/Right Side (HS: Crean Lutheran/Club: Tstreet/Verbal: Uncommitted)&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Brooke is currently an unranked prospect in the 2028 Class according to our Prep Dig California State Rankings, but that is only because they have not been released yet.&nbsp; She plays volleyball at Crean Lutheran High School and club for the Tstreet volleyball program. &nbsp;Every coach dreams of having a left handed, six-foot tall setter on their team to cause so many mismatch problems for opposing teams.&nbsp; Enter Brooke Badorek!&nbsp; This young lady has the frame and strength that you want in a 5-1 setter who can also battle at the net.&nbsp; I am very excited to watch this young lady grow for the next four years, because I saw a super high ceiling from her at the showcase.&nbsp; At this young age, it is amazing to see such a fierce competitor like her want to become better at her craft and have the desire to win every rally.&nbsp; That is exactly who we saw when we watched her at the showcase.&nbsp; As a setter, the ball comes out of her hands very smoothly and consistently.&nbsp; As a blocker, she possesses the drive to high-point the ball and shut down anyone.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award at the showcase.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='532638' first='Korynn' last='Mayo']&nbsp;[2027] 5-10 Outside (HS: Marina/Club: United/Verbal: Uncommitted)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Korynn is currently an unranked prospect in the 2027 class according to our Prep Dig California State Rankings, but is on our official Watch List.&nbsp; She plays volleyball at Marina High School and also for the [program_tooltip program_id='515277' first='United' last='Volleyball Club'] program.&nbsp; Miss Mayo had my attention when I watched her at one of our previous showcases this past qualifier season.&nbsp; She earned a top performer award then and to prove it wasn't a fluke, she earned another one at nationals.&nbsp; Many coaches admired her sheer power in her upper body and ability to move very well around the court.&nbsp; Armed with prototypical size and power, she is the type of outside hitter who can give you a double-double with kills and digs in every match she plays in.&nbsp; Her offensive performance during the showcase showed exactly how dynamic of an attacker she is.&nbsp; The way she rattled off kill after kill should have opened every college coach's eye that were in attendance.&nbsp; If you have not seen her play, I strongly suggest you put her name down in your short list of left sides to watch.&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;
