Film Review: Watching Film Inside After Three Hot Days

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>After a fun-filled, scorching three days in St. Louis watching Major League Baseball, I took it upon myself to find some film on athletes I have not seen recently in the comfort of my air-conditioned basement, with three sleeping Frenchies in my lap.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Each athlete is currently in the Prep Dig rankings, or set to be included in the next rankings update, and has claimed their Prep Dig Profile.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This report included one athlete for each of our currently ranked classes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["714714"],"_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-685edf5d520ac"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Prather and the Mustangs participated in the MOKAN Tournament this month at Washburn University, but I did not get a chance to see them play in person. She has a nice variety of video clips on her HUDL account. She has a smooth swing and can hammer the ball down the line. I like her jumping ability. She tallied 132 kills last season for Rock Creek, and I expect her workload to increase this fall. Prather is ranked No. 37 overall in the Kansas Class of 2026.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["446315"],"_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-685edf5d5212f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dawson is an athlete I have not seen compete in person in over a year, but she has been posting video highlights on her X account. She is a gifted multi-sport athlete who recently posted a video of a grand slam she hit during a club softball game. She is a physical hitter with plenty of volleyball highlights to share as well. She played a Topeka-area-based [program_tooltip program_id='515493' first='Club' last='North'] squad during the club season. She is ranked No. 37 overall in the Kansas Class of 2027. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["534823"],"_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-685edf5d5217c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">While I was in St. Louis watching Michael Busch and Nico Hoerner drive balls out of Busch Stadium for the Chicago Cubs, Duson was in Dallas driving balls down the line at USA Nationals. If volleyball does not work out for Duson, she should consider being a professional carpenter because she knows how to swing a hammer. Duson is ranked No. 34 overall in the Kansas Class of 2028. She will be heading into her sophomore season for the Blue Valley North Mustangs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["782452"],"_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-685edf5d521c2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Elliott recently created a Prep Dig Profile and will be added to the Class of 2029 rankings when they update next. She has a deep video package on HUDL that not only shows off her setting skills but also her ability to attack and block. She is tall for a setter and could develop into a middle or outside hitter. She is versatile for her age. She will be entering her freshman year at Blue Valley Northwest.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
