Ohio Prospects at Windy City Qualifier

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='524611' first='Chloe' last='Dick']</strong> - OH | HOVA 17A Red<br>Dick is an athletic 5'10 pin with six-rotation tools including a big arm. The evidence of her impact for this HOVA team is that they use her a lot and in a variety of situations whether at both pins, through inside options, and out of the back row. She is aggressive and is capable of bringing some good pace anywhere on the court. Her junior season for New Lexington this past fall was her best yet as she earned 374 total kills for a 4.7 k/s average on a career high .305 efficiency. At over 800 career kills, she has 745 digs as well, including a 13.0 d/m average in 2024.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='356397' first='Jadyn' last='Kennedy'] </strong>- DS/L | Legacy 17-1<br>Kennedy is a Clay High School prospect that led the Eagles defensively in 2024 with 273 total digs and an 11.9 d/m average. The club experience is an opportunity to showcase her tools as a defensive specialist given her role with Legacy's (MI) tope 17U team and the high level of competition they see at every event. The 2026 prospect reads the floor well and is quick with good composure to react well to power and finesse coming off an opponent's arm. Expect to see Kennedy rise considerably in the next 2026 rankings cycle update.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='694089' first='Maya' last='Flores']</strong> - OH/RS/MB | CVC 16 Black<br>Flores has a high ceiling to her game and it will be fun to watch her develop as she increases quickness in her footwork and arm speed. Just a 2027 prospect, her length and range at 6'2 are a huge asset as she can touch at a high point of contact when hitting. A longer runway in her approach patterns and more torque in the air with allow her to maximize these tools more and increase her effectiveness overall to generate more power and range. She has a good foundation and her potential is big. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='582229' first='Avery' last='Brannon'] </strong>- RS | [program_tooltip program_id='431827' first='Elevation' last=''] 15 Tony<br>A 2028 right side, Brannon has good physical presence at the net with her length at 6'0. This is a team with good tools in all roles and Brannon is developing as the piece at the right pin that could be an x-factor for them down the road with increased effectiveness on both sides of the ball. She can develop a high contact point and as her movement and timing improve, she becomes more difficult to defend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='875478' first='Hollis' last='Armstrong']</strong> - DS/L | A2 16 Green<br>Armstrong, a 2027 prospect, is a steady libero as she reacts fluidly to the ball coming across the net in serve receive. Her platform work is stable, away from her body, and when combined with her balanced footwork she creates good touches to get her setter into good position to run an offense. Defensively, she prepares well with her feet stopped and in position to use an effecient first step to the ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
