Ursuline took care of business against Turpin for a 3-0 victory as they had a balanced attack with five hitters that earned between five and 10 kills. Green now has 865 total assists in 2025 for a 9.0 a/s average. Her command of the court continues to improve as she gains more experience and grows more fluid in her movement and decision-making. Ursuline, 19-7 overall, will play Tippecanoe for a chance at the state semifinal round.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["878750"],"_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-6903a202aaabf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Just a freshman, Claxon was big-time for the Jeeps as she led her team on both sides of the ball with 20 kills and 25 digs. Just her second time over 20 kills in her first varsity season, she has been performing at a consistently high rate in recent matches as this was her fourth in a row in double-figure kills. With a season average of 3.5 k/s, she has averaged 4.1 k/s these recent opportunities. South Webster climbs to 16-9 overall and advances one step from the state tournament as their next opponent is #3 ranked Newark Catholic.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":231263,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Allison Orzech","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'7u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"32564","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Holy Name","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6903a202aabb3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The junior pin posted a team high 22 kills as Holy Name defeated Perry 3-1 to advance to the DIV regional final round where they will next face #7 ranked Marlington. Averaging a career best 3.2 k/s, second best for the Green Wave, Orzech was instrumental in helping to fend off a late-match surge from the Pirates. She develops good balance in the air with her double-arm lift and uses that to her advantage to be able to move the ball around aggressively. She also averages just over 10 digs per match.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["480805"],"_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-6903a202aac2a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cocherl continues to perform at an elite level offensively, which includes putting down 21 kills as Pleasant earned a hard fought 3-1 win over Willard. The performance standard for Cocherl is high as she has spent her entire varsity career scoring in big volume as she has a career average of 5.9 k/s. This complements well her defense as she is averaging a career high 11.2 d/m this season. Pleasant will next face a Huron team that performs well defensively while also having good offensive balance. This should be an intense match to get to the state tournament and the season's final weekend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":231263,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='798763' first='Sidney' last='Keslar']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'4u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"32561","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"South Webster","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6903a202aacef"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Jeeps gutted out a tough 3-2 win over Valley to earn a spot in the regional final round. Keslar was terrific in the win as she dished 44 assists to help keep South Webster's offense rolling, which included three attackers in double-digit kills. She also added 12 digs for and individual double-double effort. Keslar has been at the helm of this offense for two seasons as the primary setter as the 5'4 senior has dished 1,563 assists for a 9.2 a/s average over that span. Their next showdown is with unbeaten Newark Catholic in the DVI Region 23 final.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
