I have seen her play in summer team action and club ball, but have yet to catch a regular season game. She recently verbally committed to William Jewell. She leads the Blue Streaks in kills with 368 in 68 sets. She is a six-rotation talent who also sets. Roebuck has recorded 234 assists, 174 digs, 46 aces, and 25 blocks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Quadrant C</strong>: Cheney (Host), Hesston, Wichita Collegiate, Kingman</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='697459' first='Reese' last='Hedstrom']</strong>, 5'11”, MB/OH, Cheney, ‘25</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hedstrom is Cheney's most dangerous hitter. She leads the Cardinals in kills with 205 in 55 sets. She is all set to eclipse her junior season total of 207 kills.  Cheney is the No. 3 overall seed in this region. They have wins over each of the teams in their quadrant. Hedstrom is ranked No. 78 overall in the Kansas Class of 2025 and to my knowledge is uncommitted.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Quadrant D</strong>: Trinity Academy (Host), Garden Plain, Haven, Nickerson</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='521830' first='Elle' last='Davis']</strong>, 5'11”, OH, Trinity Academy, ‘25</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Knights have a balanced scoring attack. One of their top hitters is Davis. She is currently ranked No. 40 overall by Prep Dig and has verbally committed to Oklahoma Christian. She has recorded 120 kills in 46 sets. Trinity is the No. 4 seed overall in this region. They have one win over Nickerson but have not played the other two teams in Quadrant D.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
