I last saw Cook compete for the Chargers in a preseason jamboree. Cook finished her freshman season with 348 kills and 32 blocks. The Saints will definitely be missing a couple of key pieces to their normal rotation. It will give other players on this team the chance to step up and show off their skills.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["518353"],"_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-67cb13fb1ea4a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lee is a young talent that I look forward to seeing play, hopefully. St. James' basketball squad is also playing on Saturday, but based on some online research, it does not appear that Lee plays basketball. I saw her play once for the Power last season and look forward to watching her this weekend. She is a potential six-rotation athlete who can play both rows. Lee recorded 226 kills and 100 digs for the Thunder.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["518357"],"_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-67cb13fb1ea92"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Windberg plays for the [program_tooltip program_id='428892' first='PVA' last=''] 15-1 team. Olathe Northwest's varsity squad was a team loaded with veteran talent last season. Windberg played in just nine varsity sets but collected nine kills in those sets. She is a tall talent who can elevate. I plan to see [program_tooltip program_id='428892' first='PVA' last=''] play during its second match of the day, with an expected start time of 9:40.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["569672"],"_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-67cb13fb1ead2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kilgore is another member of the Saints who could get more playing time this weekend. She played in four sets at the varsity level for the Hayden Wildcats. She has quality size, and I have seen her compete in a secondary role. This might be the first time I get to see her compete as one of the first options in an offense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
