<p>On August 31, I scouted prep action in Wabaunsee at an eight-team tournament.</p>

<p>Here are four unranked prospects I was impressed with during the event. Prep Dig Player Profiles have been created for all four, and they will be added to the rankings when they are next updated.</p>

<p>Wright is a nifty libero who is tough as nails. In one set of action that I watched, she had five digs and six serve receptions. She made solid first passes and is a quality leader on a young Charger squad.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='618489' first='Abi' last='Garcia']</strong>, 5'8”, MB/RS, Sacred Heart, ‘27</p>

<p>Garica was a well-rounded athlete who caught my eye. She played better defense than I expected from her. She collected 10 serve receptions, three digs, and two kills in a two-set loss to Northeast Kansas Homeschool in the Knights' first match of the season. She is young and raw, but she has natural athleticism.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='618490' first='Mia' last='Vinson']</strong>, 5'9”, OH, Heritage Christian Academy, ‘27</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The defending Class 3A State Champion roster was gutted by graduation. Vinson is a multi-skilled athlete who will try to help guide the Chargers back to the state tournament in Hutchinson. She was a stat monster in the one set I saw her play racking up four kills, five digs, and five serve receptions. She has a high Volleyball IQ and could be a solid college prospect when all is said and done.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='618491' first='Lila' last='Sterbenz']</strong>, 5'6”, S, Northeast Kansas Homeschool, ‘27</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Sterbenz was an interesting athlete to watch. She is a physical setter who moves well and can do a lot on the court. She has a nice serve and did a good job sitting. She elevates well and has a nice tip game. She could be a future leader for the Nighthawks club which is very young.</p>
