<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em><a href="https://prepdig.com/all-events/?type=Showcase" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">The 2025 Prep Dig Exposure Tour is officially LIVE. Use code BamfordPD25 to register today.</a></em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The PrepDig Exposure Tour made its first stop of the winter in Nevada, and the energy inside the gym matched exactly what this series is designed to deliver. Showcases are one of the best places for athletes who want more opportunities to be seen. There are no lineups to worry about and no limited reps. Every athlete rotates through positions and gets consistent touches in a fast, competitive environment.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Today's session included a special guest in [player_tooltip player_id='543103' first='Rachel' last='Purser'], the Hawaii Wahine commit, who evaluated her court and selected one MVP and three top performers. These athletes showed skill, competitiveness, and intention on every rep. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["505606"],"_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-69195ec8af018"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='505606' first='Caira' last='Tasi'] named MVP at PrepDig's Exposure Tour in Nevada, CA.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Caira showed advanced court awareness throughout the showcase and consistently made smart decisions under pressure. She sees the floor well, tracks blockers, and attacks open space with intention instead of swinging just to swing. She said, “One of my strongest skills is my court awareness and seeing spots that are open on the court and making sure to attack those spots.” Rachel confirmed the same strength, sharing that Caira placed smart balls into deep corners, created scoring opportunities with range, and stayed composed in long rallies. At the net, she formed a strong block that closed lanes and elevated the level of her entire group.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":905926,"width":"203px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"full","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-full is-resized"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2025/11/image_85ac62.png" alt="" class="wp-image-905926" style="width:203px;height:auto" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She is focused on becoming a more reliable option in transition and is intentional about her communication with setters. She explained, “I'm working on always being an option and being audible for my setter so she knows where I am on the court.” Her goals for the season center on quick adjustment, team connection, and giving full effort every day. Off the court, she brings a fun competitive edge, sharing that she does not end family game night until she wins. Rachel summed up her impact best by saying Caira's leadership, attitude, and consistency made her a clear MVP of the session. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["770015"],"_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-69195ec8af0b5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='770015' first='Kenley' last='Williams'] named Top Performer at PrepDig Exposure Tour in Nevada, CA.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I have been following Kenley's journey, and what I saw today was growth and confidence. Kenley was a steady force in the middle and anchored the front row with disciplined footwork. She stayed low, ready, and explosive, which allowed her to push off quickly and form a clean block. She read hitters well, tracked the play, and consistently created pressure at the net. Her consistency and court awareness made her a key defensive presence throughout the session.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":905927,"width":"271px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2025/11/image_1bfbb1.png?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-905927" style="width:271px;height:auto" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rachel shared that Kenley had a “good block, always ready at the net, low and ready to push off and swing, and good in the middle knowing her spots.” That assessment matched exactly what Kenley showed today as she continues to elevate her game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["720121"],"_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-69195ec8af13a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='720121' first='Kenna' last='Lange'] named Top Performer at PrepDig Exposure Tour in Nevada, CA.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kenna ran the offense with strong, confident hands and clean ball control. She consistently moved her feet early to deliver hittable sets and kept her attackers in rhythm through every rotation. Her calm presence, steady tempo, and ability to adjust on the move gave her court a sense of structure. She showed the awareness to push the ball outside when needed and carried a setter's poise into every drill.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":905930,"width":"296px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2025/11/image_9dd4f4.png?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-905930" style="width:296px;height:auto" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rachel noted that Kenna “can push the ball outside when setting, has good strong hands, and gets her feet there to set,” a reflection of the same qualities she displayed all session long. Kenna's technical discipline and quiet leadership helped her group run a smooth and connected offense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["740056"],"_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-69195ec8af1b4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='740056' first='Madison' last='Anderson'] named Top Performer at PrepDig Exposure Tour in Nevada, CA.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Madison impressed with her footwork and discipline at the net. She pressed over well, sealed space, and created scoring opportunities with strong line swings. She knows how to tool the block, stays aggressive in transition, and competes with a confidence that carried her entire court. Off the ball, she celebrated every point, lifted her teammates, and modeled the kind of selfless play that strengthens a group.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":905929,"width":"236px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none","align":"left"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2025/11/image_114976.png?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-905929" style="width:236px;height:auto" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rachel shared that Madison had “good footwork when blocking, always celebrated, put her team first, had good line swings, and could tool the block,” which matched exactly what Madison showed throughout the session.
