These athletes bring a dynamic mix of power, versatility, and six-rotation reliability that college coaches look for. Whether they're terminating out-of-system balls, tooling the block, or stabilizing serve receive, this group is stepping into the spotlight with grit and confidence.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Unlike other showcases, <strong>PrepDig delivers in-depth coverage before, during, and after the event</strong>.

Her mindset is her edge, fueled by grit, discipline, and a genuine love for the sport. Gunjan leads by example, helping elevate her team's performance while maintaining a composed, competitive presence on the court. Her drive to continually adapt and push herself physically and mentally sets her apart as a next-level prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This season, Gunjan has zeroed in on improving her <strong>vertical jump</strong> to stay aggressive and impactful at the net, even against taller blockers. Teammates recognize her as a passionate and smart player who brings both intensity and encouragement to every play. Coaches describe her as relentlessly hardworking, willing to do whatever it takes to help the team succeed. A fun fact? Gunjan made varsity as a freshman and shared the court with a senior bound for Division I, an experience that only deepened her hunger to compete at the next level. ~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='730226' first='Gunjan' last='Joshi']</strong> is one of several talented outside/right sides from California set to compete in Session I.
