JUNE 15 RS/OPPO CALL LIST: OPPOSITE THREATS JUST A CLICK AWAY

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>June 15 marks a pivotal moment in the recruiting journey. It's the first day NCAA Division I programs can directly contact Class of 2027 athletes. To support college coaches during this critical window, PrepDig has assembled a list of elite right side hitters who bring length, power, and presence to the pin.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>These are the athletes who can block the opponent's top threat, swing with purpose from the right side, and provide critical out-of-system options when the game gets chaotic.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>PrepDig is the trusted resource for college coaches across all divisions.</strong> After logging notes in the UA platform, many coaches head straight to the PrepDig Prospect Index, an organized and accessible player database that includes:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>📌 Player Bio<br>📸 Instagram Handle<br>📝 Vetted Evaluations<br>📰 Featured Articles<br>🎥 Highlight Footage</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This is more than a platform.

Coaches, players, club directors, and parents all play a vital role. Here's how each of you can make the most of this moment.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":4} --> <h4 class="wp-block-heading"><span style="text-decoration: underline">COLLEGE COACHES</span></h4> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We are continually building this resource and updating profiles alongside athletes and clubs.

Let it speak clearly and confidently.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Ground yourself in confidence.</strong><br>You've earned this moment. Now show coaches who you are, not just as a hitter, but as a teammate and a competitor. They're not only watching your kill count, they're watching how you respond to pressure, how you lead from the sideline, and how you impact the energy of the court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Prepare to engage.</strong><br>Have a list of questions ready. Ask about their offensive systems, how they use their opposites, and how they train transition play and block positioning. Use this as an opportunity to learn more about the program and how you might fit into it.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Stay organized.</strong><br>Keep a notepad close. Write down who you spoke with, what you discussed, and any next steps. These small details will help you stay focused and follow up with purpose.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>For top prospects, preparation is key.</strong><br>Know your top schools. Be ready for honest conversations, including those about scholarships, depth charts, and your projected role. And don't be afraid to ask where you stand on their list.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Even if your dream school calls first, you don't need to rush. Take your time and make thoughtful decisions. Just be ready and confident when the moment comes.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":4} --> <h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline">CLUB DIRECTORS</span></strong></h4> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We know you've built strong, trusted relationships with college coaches, and we're here to support and strengthen those connections.
