Uncommitted Seniors College Coaches Should Call Today

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Dave Mohs Tournament was hosted across several schools, including Edison, Huntington Beach, Corona del Mar, Marina, and Newport Harbor.

I kept my notes app open and let the players reveal themselves.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Four uncommitted seniors demanded attention with their skills. These athletes are ready for the next level, and their performances showed why college coaches should be calling today. Here are the seniors who proved they belong in the conversation for immediate college opportunities.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["777585"],"_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-68beffca62126"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='777585' first='Hayden' last='Shanafelt'] delivered one of the most impressive libero performances of the tournament. Fresh off earning a spot on the Tesoro All-Tournament Team, she continued to show why she deserves attention at the next level. A 2026 senior from San Clemente High School, Shanafelt is not only a standout on the court but also carries a 4.50 GPA. She measures 5'6” with a 30-inch vertical, combining athleticism with discipline. Her serve has the ability to swing momentum, and she repeatedly dug swings off many D1 commits in the gym with confidence and control. Beyond the skills, she provides a steady energy that lifts her teammates, playing every point with composure and intent. This club season, she will compete as a libero/DS for A4 18-Joaco. ~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="http://www.hudl.com/profile/18975282/Hayden-Shanafelt" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='777585' first='Hayden' last='Shanafelt'] Highlights</strong></a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["471111"],"_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-68beffca621c6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='471111' first='Anaya' last='Francois'] jumps out of the gym, and her vertical sets her apart in both attacking and blocking situations.

Francois is more than just a physical talent, she carries a 4.28 GPA and was named an All-Tournament player at USAV Nationals. With that balance of athleticism, skill, and academic strength, it's surprising she has not already been picked up by a college program. ~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/19081107/Anaya-Francois" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">[player_tooltip player_id='471111' first='Anaya' last='Francois'] Highlights</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["849232"],"_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-68beffca62272"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='849232' first='Rowan' last='Curtis'] continues to impress as a strong libero with a relentless “go” mentality.
