<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I had the incredible opportunity to attend the SoCal PrepDig Top250 Showcase on November 30th at Prime Volleyball Club in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA. Let me tell you, it was an event brimming with energy, talent, and fierce competition. This showcase wasn't just about athletic ability – it was about recognizing the whole athlete. Through <em>Coachable247</em>, I asked the coaches to take on the unique task of selecting their very own MVPs, which provided a valuable opportunity to incorporate the <em>Networking</em> component from the Coachable247 Playbook into the showcase <em>Interviews</em>.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This process mirrors how college coaches evaluate prospects – by watching, listening, and observing what sets players apart. Just like in the recruiting world, it wasn't always about the flashiest skills or the tallest players. Coaches know what they're looking for, and when they find that rare combination of talent, work ethic, and character, it's truly rewarding. The beauty of this selection process was that each coach had the freedom to choose the MVP they felt best embodied the qualities they value in a player – whether it was raw talent, leadership, hustle, or the ability to elevate the team, even without the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I'm excited to share with you the standout players who were selected and the reasons why their coaches chose them. From unmatched work ethic to remarkable leadership, these athletes left a lasting impression, and their coaches saw something truly special in them.

As a middle blocker, Ruby stood out as the only middle on her court for a significant stretch, and yet, she never showed signs of fatigue. When Coach Jendryk asked if she needed a break, Ruby's response was clear—she was eager to keep playing. Her determination and drive made her an invaluable presence on the court, and her refusal to slow down showcased just how committed she is to her game. Ruby's resilience and dedication were key to her being named MVP, and her hardworking attitude truly set her apart.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='528262' first='Ruby' last='Roberts'], MVP at the SoCal PrepDig Top250 Showcase, held on November 30, 2024, at Prime Volleyball Club in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA.

Even when things got challenging, Riley barely needed to call for help; she handled every set with poise and precision. Beyond her technical skills, Riley's leadership stood out. She was constantly talking to her hitters and passers, offering invaluable feedback and guidance. Her ability to lead her hitters was incredibly beneficial, making her an essential quarterback to the team. A true team player, Riley's commitment to doing whatever it took for her teammates made her the clear choice for MVP at the SoCal PrepDig Top250 Showcase.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='515127' first='Riley' last='Stringer'], MVP at the SoCal PrepDig Top250 Showcase, held on November 30, 2024, at Prime Volleyball Club in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA.
