Dig California State Rankings.  She plays volleyball for Crean Lutheran High School and also plays for the [program_tooltip program_id='515277' first='United' last='Volleyball Club'] program.  According to her court coaches, Miss Alimadadian was very easy to coach due to her awesome personality.  As far as her skill set is concerned, she has some great defensive efforts to keep the ball in play.  What stands out is how she is able to dig overhead balls with her hands.  By using her hands so well, she extends her range and this allows her to be a lot more effective on the court.  There were a few times where she used a collapse dig for balls that were hit with good pace.  This will keep the ball on her side so well.  Her ability to move quickly on the court and cover a lot of ground will do wonders for any squad that she is on.  Hitter coverage is another aspect that she excelled at.  By being very involved in court coverage, it gives her attackers the confidence to swing away knowing that she is behind them to back them up.  Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!--

according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings.  She plays volleyball for Saint Mary's Hall High School and also plays for the [program_tooltip program_id='431254' first='San' last='Antonio Juniors'] volleyball program.  We have seen this young lady a lot over the last two years as she has burst onto the scene and wowed everyone who watches her play with her fast-twitch muscle fibers and quick reflexes.  I truly believe that she has everything necessary to continue to climb up the rankings and have tons of college scouts interested in her play.  Hard driven balls that would normally scare some defenders away are easy pickings for Breanna.  It is almost like she sees the game in slow motion at times.  Armed with a soft touch and laser focused eyes, she is able to dig at a very high level for any squad that she is on.  We placed her on the top court for a reason and she did not disappoint, as she was one of the best ball control experts there.  Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

Dig Washington State Rankings, but is currently listed on our official Watch List.  She plays volleyball for Glacier Peak High School and also plays for the Spaceneedle Volleyball Federation club program.  Miss Box has a very strong upper body that she uses to push the ball out to the pins with ease.  I love that she has a positive disposition on the court and that will lead to some great leadership and team chemistry to any squad.  When you watch her footwork as she tracks the ball around the court, you see some great balance and fantastic ability to not put her heels on the ground.  This will keep her super bouncy and able to beat the ball to her spot in order to have great posture while setting.  On the court, her positive attitude was a joy to witness and we think she will continue to inspire others throughout her volleyball career.  Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award for this showcase. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!--
