2029 Top Performer Outsides/Rights: Earning Early Attention

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The freshman year of high school volleyball marks more than just a new beginning, it's a proving ground. For outside and right-side hitters, it's a chance to show they can carry offensive loads, make smart decisions under pressure, and contribute as six-rotation players. It's where they begin to build chemistry with setters, embrace leadership roles, and learn how to consistently execute at a higher level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>At the PrepDig Nevada Showcase hosted at It's All Volleyball, a standout group of 2029 pin hitters rose to the occasion. They played with confidence, adapted quickly to unfamiliar systems, and showed flashes of the kind of power and versatility coaches look for in varsity contributors.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Each athlete listed below earned Top Performer recognition by competing with purpose and producing results. From terminal swings to timely blocks and all-around consistency, these outsides and rights proved they belong in the conversation. While full evaluations may be coming soon, this is your first look at the pin hitters officially on the PrepDig radar. Watch closely, these athletes are only getting started.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block
