<p class="text-gray-700">King will be with AP 15 Adidas in the 15 Open division this weekend. She's been splitting her time with the team between libero and defensive specialist, but whatever her role is, she will bring a lot of defensive stability for the team. King is capable of covering a lot of ground in serve-receive and her deliveries are consistently accurate, keeping her team in system. A very technical player, she also stands out for her ability to keep the ball off the floor when playing defense, showing excellent ball control. A lefty, King is also a powerful server, who consistently gets opponents out of system with her tough floaters. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Negron is the starting libero of the Waco VBC 16 UA Black team that will be in action in the 16 Open division in Dallas. An elite defender, she's very difficult to score against because of her outstanding ball control and her impressive quickness on the backcourt. Negron's superior technique allows her to remain precise even when she has to improvise or make reaction saves. The libero is very steady with her production and does an excellent job of fulfilling her responsibilities with the team on the court.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Nye-Colón plays libero for the Peak VA 16 Black side that is entered in this weekend's event in the 16 Open division. She's an elite defensive player, who has outstanding reflexes and, because of that, manages to dig swings from the middle at an incredibly high rate. Nye-Colón's tremendous ball control allows her to be very productive and consistent with her actions on the backcourt when passing and playing defense. The libero is one of the pillars of her team, playing with great consistency and keeping her team in system even when dealing with tough serves.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Vo will appear in the 17 Open division in Dallas, playing for Excel 17 National Red. She moved to the club this season, coming from [program_tooltip program_id='431200' first='Madfrog' last=''], and gave a massive boost to their defensive system. She's extremely confident in her game on the backcourt and that shows with how much ground she covers in serve-receive. Vo is also very quick with her movement on the backcourt and often gets to balls most wouldn't expect her to when playing defense. She also does the little things very well, such as serving, covering her hitters and setting in transition, and adds a lot to her team in many aspects of her game.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Hernandez will be in action with TAV 17 Black Jon in the 17 Open division this week. The best libero in her age group in Texas, according to our Prep Dig State Rankings, she's a difference-maker on the backcourt and a key piece in her team's playing system. Hernandez's technical skills are second-to-none, but what sets her apart when working on the backcourt is her ability to read the game and react to it, which allows her to anticipate plays. The libero is a player who will make many digs every match, but, perhaps most importantly, will deliver big stops in key moments of matches.</p>
