Our coverage goes beyond just the Open division because we know college-ready talent can come from any court. This month, we turned our attention to the top 15U Division II teams competing at Pearce Sports Center in San Bernardino.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Several athletes stood out with impressive performances, catching our eye with their skill, hustle, and potential. These are the players who earned a spot in my notes, and now, a spotlight, so college coaches can get to know a new wave of talent. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["776566"],"_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-682e997bcc170"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='776566' first='Lillian' last='Heath'] is a middle who makes smart choices, especially when the ball isn't perfectly set. She places her tips with intention and has solid timing when blocking. She stays involved in the rally, and there's a steadiness to her that stood out over the course of the day. ~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["776748"],"_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-682e997bcc1c9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Emily Hayes | Middle Blocker | BVC 15-Judy</strong><br>Emily does a great job owning the middle. She's always alert, ready to make a move, and keeps her hands strong and pressed on the block. What really stood out was her coverage. She stays active after the block and finds a way to keep the ball in play, which isn't something you always see from a middle. ~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["776744"],"_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-682e997bcc212"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='776744' first='Sofia' last='Ervin']'s swing speed grabs your attention right away.
