The 2024 tournament has several state contenders ready to compete from the 4A, 3A and 2A ranks. We highlight senior stars, high-flying newcomers, and underclassmen prepared to make their mark in our second preview.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The Gonzaga Prep senior has waited for her chance to shine playing behind talented attackers for the past two seasons. Ohman is athletic with a quick arm and has played the early part of the season with very few errors. Ohman has off-speed shots she uses effectively and will get on the floor to make a tough dig.</p>

<p>Sandberg is the #3 ranked player overall in the class of 2027 and continues to add shots to her bag. The sophomore has a tough-to-read roll from the pipe and a hard wipe off the block that has been effective this season.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Wright is the top setter in the class and a terminal attacker from the right side. Tahoma has a talented roster, and the Montana commit is one of multiple, experienced returners. Wright has a very smooth arm swing, a good vertical, and is a good decision-maker in the setter spot.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Foote is a tremendous server, keeping teams out of system and generating easy opportunities for her attackers when she is at the service line. The senior has sweet hands and can push the ball pin to pin to find a good matchup. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">The senior pin is the go-to scorer for the Lions, and she has an accurate arm swing and a knack for finding empty spots on the court. Schoenberg has cranked up the power game in the early part of the season, she is tough for defenders to handle when she finds the deep corner. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Ball is the senior libero and the leader of a tough backline defense for Kennewick. She is precise when passing free balls and in serve receive, and has experience playing in big matches for Kennewick and Shockwave.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">The junior has been a starter since day one of her high school career and will be on the pin for Rogers this season. Terry is a major part of everything Rogers does on the court, playing tough defense, attacking out of the pipe, and delivering big blocks and rockets when she is playing on the net. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Sorenson is a freshman OH for the Rams, and she is receiving playing time in the early going of the season. At 5'8", she has the height and athletic ability to deliver kills and is playing solid defense when she is the off-blocker. The Rams are relatively young with four class of 2028 players on the varsity roster, Sorenson and her team will have the chance to grow together during the season. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Morales has been dynamite from the right side to start the season, dominating as a blocker and pounding down jarring kills when the Vikings call her number. A fully healthy Morales will be key to Curtis making a run at the State Championship, the team is talented and experienced with good athletes all over the court. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Working as a DS, Williams essentially gives Curtis another skilled libero playing when she is on the court. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Turcinec is a coach's dream, she has all the skills you want in a volleyball player and is willing to do what it takes to get a win. Playing on the pin, she attacks with aggression and is not afraid to challenge the block or work in a shot to the corner. Turcinec is always working hard on defense and has good hands when she is setting, no matter what position she playing on the floor. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">The senior OH always brings heat and consistency as an attacker. Mccraw is strong, and plays longer than her 5'11" height, delivering kills around, through, and off the block. Her experience will be critical in moving Kennedy Catholic forward after last year's excellent season that ended with a state appearance.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Gutke will compete at Auburn in the SEC Conference next season, and the 6'3" MB makes plays in every match that show her high major potential. She has the length and press to shut down opposing middles entirely, and when Gutke takes a rip in system, it's nearly a certain point for the Spartans. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Maginnis will be relied upon as a six-rotation player for Skyline, and she has reached double digits in kills twice in the early part of the season. The 2027 prospect is particularly tough from the service line, Skyline will push points when she has the ball in her hands. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">A 2025 who has committed to play at Weber State, Eastwood is a high-level defender and decision-maker at the setter position. The senior can run a 5-1, and is a sneaky attacker who picks the right time to throw over an attack on her own. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Yokoo went over the 100-kill mark as a sophomore, and now as a junior is increasing her hitting percentage and overall play on the court. The 2026 prospect has a good serve and competes at the net using all of her 5'8" height to make it tough on opposing attackers. </p>
