SLC Showdown Week 2 Showcase Top Performers Vol 3

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Salt Lake City Showdown Showcase is run in conjunction with the SLC Showdown National Qualifier on April 4^th and April 10^th.  It was held at the Salt Palace Convention Center and also live streamed via BallerTV.  There were tons of amazing athletes from all over the nation who were giving their all in both the positional drills and also the team scrimmages.  Let's take a look at all of the athletes who earned a Top Performer award for their individual play at the showcase.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["766264"],"_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-6802ae9414ffb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gwyneth is currently an unranked prospect in the 2029 Class according to our Prep Dig California State Rankings.&nbsp; She will play volleyball for Granite Bay High School and also plays for the SynergyForce volleyball club program.&nbsp; We were all thoroughly impressed with the overall ball control as she performed all night at the showcase.&nbsp; When the ball contacts her platform, it rebounds off of it very smoothly.&nbsp; This is due to her soft natural touch that she has on the ball.&nbsp; With what we saw, her skill set can best be described as a six rotation left side attacker that can help a team's ball control and offense.&nbsp; One of the best aspects about her is that when she attacked the ball, she did not just swing away wildly.&nbsp; While a lot of younger hitters make a lot of errors, Miss Layton used great hand contact and off-speed shots to keep the defense off-balance.&nbsp; From a coach's perspective, she had a very high volleyball IQ and that will only get better with age and more experience.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award for this showcase.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["764519"],"_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-6802ae9415054"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Faith is currently an unranked prospect in the 2029 Class according to our Prep Dig Utah State Rankings.&nbsp; She will play for San Juan High School and currently plays for the JVC volleyball club program.&nbsp; Miss Flannery has a great frame as a young player who plays out of the middle.&nbsp; There were some great middles that balled out and she was one of the standouts for sure.&nbsp; By standing tall and keeping her hands high at the net, she was able to battle well against all of the attackers that tried to score on her squad.&nbsp; I liked how even though she is taller, she still loaded her legs up well to gain even more momentum in her jump to block.&nbsp; We were very impressed with everything that she&nbsp; brought to the table and will be watfching her journey closely in the future.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award at the showcase.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["531190"],"_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-6802ae94150a2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cecilia is currently an unranked prospect in the 2028 Class according to our Prep Dig California State Rankings.&nbsp; She plays volleyball for St. Igniatus High School and plays for the SF Elite volleyball club program.&nbsp; Miss Hecker is a solid six-rotation player who shows a high volleyball IQ offensively as she finds multiple ways to score.&nbsp; I really liked how she uses her awesome court vision to read holes in the defense in order to efficiently attack the ball against her opponents.&nbsp; Her length is something that every coach will love about her, but they will really love how she approaches the game.&nbsp; Laser focus and willingness to do anything for her team to win is something we all noticed about her.&nbsp; We really like the base that she is starting from and think she has a high ceiling to keep improving.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award for this showcase.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stay tuned for more articles on your favorite athletes.&nbsp;
