<p>Important things to consider; Skill needed at that position, IQ, Toughness, Size, Athletisism, and Intangebles such as body languge and energy. Keep in mind, all of our scouts place slightly different levels of value on each of those categories. If a player is more athletic, taller, or larger, that will compensate for current skill deficiencies. There's the old adage that you cannot teach size and skill. If you go down the different levels of college athletics, the difference is very rarely in skill level. The biggest gaps are in size, explosiveness, and athleticism. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Ella has been a standout for a while now. This upcoming season her and MSM will be looking for their 3rd state title. She has a great approach and arm swing that allows for a ton of power. I would love to see her go line or high hands more often in matches but you can't argue with the points she puts up. Multiple national recognitions/accolades and she will also likely be an All-State selection her senior year. We are looking forward to seeing which college gets an absolute dawg in [player_tooltip player_id='253948' first='Ella' last='Hale']!</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='210539' first='Emma' last='Gardner'] is our #1 Right Side Hitter in the class of 2026. 6 '3 " of problems for opposing hitters. For reference, Harper Murray from Nebraska, is only 6'2". Emma's ability to hit a good hard cross attacks from the right side makes her enemy #1 for setters. She is much more than just a right side, she does a great job when she is set out of serve receive, to the outside. She was a huge addition this season to the already star studded Bishop McGuinness program in OKC. [player_tooltip player_id='210539' first='Emma' last='Gardner'] will be relied upon even more so her senior season.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='301381' first='Rachel' last='Megna'] may only be 5'7 but she takes up a ton of court. Her ability to read the game allows her to move preemptively and seem like she is everywhere at once. It's the part of her game that I believe makes her one the best in Oklahoma and the #1 DS in her class. Her senior year at OCS will be a special one!</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='297123' first='Ana' last='Appel'] was a menace this past school season. Whether it was front row, back row, as a setter, as a hitter, as a blocker, you name it. She took big steps as a front row player this past season and has really increased her value. She now can efficiently run a 5-1 or 6-2 system. She also has added the value of possibly staying in the front row and hitting inside of a 6-2 system. A college is going to get a heck of a player that loves to compete for every point.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='301378' first='Lanee' last='Heflin'] and her VC crew are about to be one of the best teams in the entire state. With her in the back row dropping dimes and frustrating good hitters, they will be hard to beat. Coming off an injury, she really bounced back this past school season and I bet she will be better than ever after this club season.</p>
