<p class="text-gray-700">McCune was extremely effective in front of the setter, running a quick tempo and firing balls with fast arm action. She showed solid lateral quickness on the block and has high potential at the position.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">ODell was solid across the board—great platform, consistent passing, and one of the strongest servers in the gym. She went on multiple service runs and played with a steady hand.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Neblett separated herself with her vision and decision-making. She's a cerebral attacker who plays ahead of the game and consistently finds open space on the court.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Garay is a young right-side with clear upside. She showed flashes of being a scoring threat, using her length and timing well. With more aggressive swings and added confidence, she could become a consistent offensive contributor.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Brasel impressed with her hustle and touch. She worked hard to get under every ball and consistently delivered hittable sets. Brasel was also a threat behind the service line with aggressive serving.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Hargis had a sharp first step and did a great job covering tips and setter dumps. Her clean platform and quick reaction time made her a standout in serve receive.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">One of the most complete players in the gym. Though listed as a setter, Andrews showed she could do it all—great tempo, strong attacker when needed, and locked in defensively. Her athleticism and versatility make her a true utility standout.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
<!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["847221"],"_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-688bfa5854903"} -->
<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Extremely athletic and explosive, Harris brought a dynamic presence to the pin. Her blend of power and finesse, paired with high-level court vision, made her one of the most exciting attackers to watch.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Laffoon stood out early in blocking drills. She read the game well and put up a solid wall in front of the attacker. Her offensive timing is developing, especially in quick-set situations.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Freeman had a big showing on quick back sets. She got off the ground fast and was efficient with her movements. As she continues to grow, she's a middle to keep a close eye on.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["796857"],"_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-688bfa5854a3d"} -->
<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Frick overcame early nerves to find her rhythm, delivering crisp passes and setting up strong second-ball options when needed. Her ability to steady out and gain confidence was a good sign of growth.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["574151"],"_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-688bfa5854a82"} -->
<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">Possibly the liveliest arm in the gym. Clifton, a lefty, brought big energy and explosive swings from the outside. For a younger player, her ability to score with pace and read the game was eye-catching.</p>
