Offensively, Mya played hungry—demanding the ball, attacking with purpose, and swinging with fire. Her energy was contagious, and her body language at the net screamed confidence and intent. She didn't just play to score—she played to dominate.

Already a vocal and strategic libero, Elisabeth seamlessly shifted into a setting role without missing a beat. Her deep understanding of rotations, timing, and hitters allowed her to run a composed offense, even under duress. Her leadership went beyond the physical—she was emotionally tuned in, rallying her team, calming nerves, and maintaining connection through tough moments. Her ability to command both defense and offense set her apart and proved her value as an all-around competitor and true floor general. ~Sophia Jeanpierre @prepdig_fl</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["510873"],"_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-67e345d4de7c9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='510873' first='Adriana' last='Garcia'] – #16, Tribe </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":762975,"aspectRatio":"1","scale":"cover","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2025/03/img_0857.jpg?w=827" alt="" class="wp-image-762975" style="aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='510873' first='Adriana' last='Garcia'] brought relentless tempo and explosiveness to Tribe Navy's offense. Her transitions were among the fastest on the court—rarely caught flat-footed, she was always ready to attack. She excelled at hitting high off the hands and finding smart angles when the block was well-formed. Her aggressive swing carried heat, forcing defenders to play deeper and opening up space for her teammates. Adriana also played with grit—diving for balls in coverage, staying engaged in long rallies, and finding ways to score even on less-than-ideal sets. She played like someone with something to prove—and she proved a lot. ~Sophia Jeanpierre @prepdig_fl</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["266140"],"_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-67e345d4de832"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='266140' first='Bella' last='Potempa'] – #10, [program_tooltip program_id='431567' first='Adversity' last=''] </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":762969,"aspectRatio":"1","scale":"cover","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2025/03/img_0861.jpg?w=495" alt="" class="wp-image-762969" style="aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='266140' first='Bella' last='Potempa'] played with fierce determination and consistency across all six rotations.

Offensively, she made smart use of the block—using wipe-offs, sharp cross, and hard-driven line shots to keep defenders off balance. Bella's serving was &nbsp;sharp, creating pressure on reception and pulling teams out of system. She thrived in transition, rarely missing an opportunity to attack.

She flew along the net, constantly available for quick sets and back sets. Her ability to adjust her approach and finish with precision gave Tribe Elite Cardinal an edge, especially in long rallies where execution under pressure mattered most. She also brought heat from the back row, with high-contact swings from right back that caught defenses off guard. Add in a top-spin serve that dropped sharply and quickly, and Miranda became one of the most efficient right-side attackers in the bracket. She brought hustle, smarts, and sharp execution to every point. ~Sophia Jeanpierre @prepdig_fl</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
