Dig Florida State Rankings.  She plays volleyball for Horizon High School and currently plays club for the Winter Park volleyball program.  Miss Vazquez is a special player who is able to do multiple great things on a team.  Not only is she able to attack both at the net and in the back row, but she is a phenomenal ball control expert as well.  While digging the ball away from her body, she does such a masterful job of extending her range and creating amazing angles to keep the ball in play.  Her emergency techniques are vast as she is able to dig with her hands for high balls and also lunge out and sprawl for one armed digs if need be that are well away from her.  She shows flashes of brilliance in changing direction during attacks that are deflected off of the block.  I loved how her focus was never taken away from her role in the game.  She is able to play both in the left back and middle back zone without any issues.  We are very proud of the effort that she showed in the showcase and think she is a gem for any coach who needs to bolster their ball control.  Please help us congratulate her on earning the Top Performer award at the showcase. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

Dig Florida State Rankings.  She plays volleyball for Park Vista and also plays club for the Wizard Volleyball Academy program.  Miss Hobson dazzled during both the individual positional drills and during the scrimmage portion of the showcase.  This young lady is super versatile as she is capable of attacking at a high level if she stays in the front row in a 6-2 offense.  Her power, timing, and ability to move her shot down the line are all key components of why she can score at a high level.  As a setter, I loved so much about her skills.  With hands as soft as butter and power to push the ball to any location with great pace, she helped her squad's offense stay elite throughout each match.  She plays the game with an intense fire that will help to motivate each teammate and they all seems to feed off of her energy.  This will be key for any college team to have a leader like this.  Her ball placement of each set location was pinpoint accurate for every hitter.  We think she has tons of potential and could easily play at the next level.  Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award for this showcase. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!--

Dig Texas State Rankings.  She plays for Wimberley High School and also club for the Austin Performance volleyball program.  Miss Peoples put on a clinic with running a high-octane offense during the scrimmage portion of the showcase.  I absolutely loved how she distributed the ball even during out of system plays.  By pushing the ball to the right side hitter when the pass took her to the left side of the court, she created some big one on one situations that led to her attacker having an easier opportunity to crush the ball and score.  She is not afraid of anything and looks to score the ball with setter dumps also.  In our opinion, she is primed and ready to take her game to the next level.  You can tell that she has been coached well by looking at her footwork and her form while tracking the ball down and delivering it all around the court.  This kid can flat out dish the rock and we were very proud of the effort that she showed all day long.  Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award for this showcase. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There are many more amazing players that will be written
