<p>Tis' the season for previews for Prep Dig Events. We are so back in 2025 with the Prep Dig Resolution ready to kick off at the Community First Champion Center on January 11-12 with the 16s-18s. We have nearly 60 teams coming to town in our 6th annual Prep Dig Resolution. Here is an early look at some athletes who could be having a big impact (with plenty more to come). </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='437479' first='Charley' last='Casey'] has been a standout at multiple Prep Dig Events from showcases to tournaments. She will be part of the [program_tooltip program_id='429199' first='Hometown' last='Heat'] 17 Gold team with plenty of athletes out of the La Crosse area where many played for the Holmen state tournament team. Casey is a physical attacker with plenty of athleticism. She is a multisport athlete, also starring in basketball. On the volleyball court she is a physical blocker on the right side and can score points from anywhere. She will have an exciting 2025 club season. </p>

She is a right side with a left handed swing where she can be crafty in finding ways to score points. If she can get the ball in system, she is definitely one to put points on the board as this 17 Blue squad will look to make noise in the 17/18 Club Division. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='180257' first='Amara' last='Beaudoin'] is no stranger to Prep Dig events as she has been a standout her entire career out of the middle. This year she is suiting up for Wisconsin Flight 18 Onyx that will have a scrappy group of athletes who can make some noise at the Resolution. Beaudoin has a blend of power and finesse where she is someone the other side needs to know about in regards to being a big blocker and has a high IQ with her attack to find the deep corner of the court to score points. She will take her talents to Michigan Tech next season. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Nickolai is a pin attacker who preps at Sheboygan Falls where she has been a key varsity her entire career. This past season she racked up nearly 200 kills for the Falcons where they went on to have a 24-15 season, finishing 6-1 in their conference. She will be part of the Spiketown 17.1 squad who will be dialed up with power and balance this 2025 season. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='299942' first='Sophia' last='Olson'] is 6'1 with plenty of athleticism and physicality. She is a middle blocker primarily who hits a real heavy ball, making it tough for the other side of the net to cleanly receive. She can find the open spots on the court as well as use the opposing block to her advantage. [program_tooltip program_id='428662' first='Wisconsin' last='Ice'] 17 National did some damage in Prep Dig Events in 2024 and will have a strong core of their team back in 2025. Many of these athletes are coming off high school seasons where they collected plenty of post season honors. </p>

She had a decorated high school career playing for Oak Creek which included some tournament appearances. This [program_tooltip program_id='431479' first='Wisconsin' last='Juniors'] team is loaded with talent and will be a heavy favorite in the 17/18 Open Division where they have college level players at every position as well as some big time depth where they can all contribute at a high level. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">After watching Gaby DiMotto play club and high school the past couple years, I don't think I've ever seen her miss hit a ball. She hits it square every single time. The outside hitter who has prepped at New Berlin West is a new addition to [program_tooltip program_id='431479' first='Wisconsin' last='Juniors'] and recently announced her college commitment to UW-Whitewater who is coming off a D3 national runner up finish. With her ability to score points in multiple positions, she will be a fun athlete to watch at the Resolution. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='499172' first='Claire' last='Gerrits'] had a breakout season this past fall for Kaukauna. The Class of 2026 right side will be looked at to be a key player for Blaze 17 Black who will be a national squad this season. The length that Gerrits provides is a great combination for a right side because she can reach over and take away plenty of angles of an opposing outside, and can always hit high and can score points. She had nearly 200 kills and over 30 blocks this season with some key performances during the post season for Kaukauna. </p>
