Dallas Up Next Showcase Top Performers Vol 2

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Up Next Showcase in Dallas did not disappoint as there were some amazing young volleyball players giving their all in front of our scouts and court coaches.  It was very refreshing to get to teach these young ladies what to expect in the next few years and how to properly showcase themselves.  Let's meet a few of the players who earned a Top Performer award from their awesome individual play.    </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

our Texas State Rankings, but that is only because we have not released her class.  She will play volleyball next year at Cornerstone Christian High School and currently plays for the Alamo volleyball club.  Ali was nominated for a few awards at this showcase due to her amazing personality and strong volleyball skills.  I noticed how positive and bubbly her personality was and immediately handed her a microphone to wear as she went through some drills.  She was very entertaining and extremely positive to other players even when she wasn't in the drill herself.  This shows me just the kind of chemistry that she is able to build with peers on and off the court.  That will be huge in the coming years as college coaches watch her grow into someone they want on their roster.  I was thoroughly impressed with her strong frame and movement on the court.  Not many taller players like her are able to be swift and coordinated at a high level.  What also stood out was how she was able to transition from setting to blocking and hitting on the right side.  This kind of versatility will be huge for any team she is on.  Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award at our showcase. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block

Texas State Rankings, but that is only because we have not released her class.  She will play volleyball at Cornerstone Christian High School and currently plays for the Alamo volleyball club.  Before the event began, one of our coaches remarked that they were excited to coach her because earlier in the club season, they had played against her team and marveled at how she didn't let a single ball hit the floor without some amazing effort to go get it.  This got me pumped up that a young player can have such an impact before the event even started.  From the moment I saw her on the court, I knew that every word stated about her play was absolutely true.  This young lady is a stellar back row defender and could be a game changer in a few years.  Alamo is known across the country for having some phenomenal liberos and Emmy is another example of a great one.  She just has a nose for the ball and will stop at nothing to keep it from touching the floor.  Her teammates can play to their potential knowing that she is there behind them to back them up.  Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award at our showcase. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!--

our Texas State Rankings, but that is only because we have not released her class.  She will play volleyball at Cornerstone Christian High School and currently plays for the Alamo volleyball club.  Originally we had her on the second court and once we saw her in action during the positional drills, we had to move her to the top court.  This young lady has some natural power in her compact frame.  She is super explosive off of the ground and her feet barely hit the floor during her approach.  I loved how she didn't need to create a lot of momentum in order to jump pretty high and that is due to her strong lower body and excellent fast twitch muscles.  Her court coaches also remarked to me numerous times how she was constantly smiling and having such a great time at the event.  Xya is one of those players that you need to watch right now and keep her name on your short list of recruits to keep your eyes on.  Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award at our showcase. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stay tuned for more articles on your favorite athletes.  If you have anyone you think we should watch
