She was on the varsity roster for DSHA her freshman year, an amazing feat, especially considering they just won their third straight state championship. Harper has a great volleyball IQ and good court awareness. She does the little things right and that helps her manufacture points. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["587074"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-676990af8f591"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Megan is a right side who dominates her position. She has high contact and a quick arm swing. She is very athletic and executes her swings well. Megan has both power and finesse with her swings. Megan is also a talented blocker who sets up the block well and has solid timing. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["522106"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-676990af8f5f4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nora is a dynamic and smart pin hitter who can play all six rotations.

She has even been known to earn points out of the back row. Ella is always ready to go in transition and finds ways to make tough plays work. She takes big swings with a lethal line shot and an impressive deep cross-court shot. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
