She led the team in assists and digs and was among the top servers. She was gritty, focused, and always ready for what came next. Emma's gritty defense kept balls alive, and her huge hustle and effort were key to her team's success. She will be playing for Madtown 15-1 National this season and is sure to have an immediate impact. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["522967"],"_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-693ae32a97260"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lilli was another key piece for Waterloo. She is a six-rotation athlete who adds value on nearly every play. Lilli had 394 kills, 226 digs, and 63 aces in her freshman season. Her court awareness is next-level, and she plays hungry when she is on the court. No matter what rotation she is in, she is calling for hits and can manufacture points in the front and back row. Lilli is a 1st Team All-State Honoree for her performance this past season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["776459"],"_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-693ae32a972ad"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hadley is a powerhouse athlete who can dominate at the net. She will be scary good as she continues to play and develop her game at a high level. Hadley led her team with over 200 kills in her freshman debut and was a go-to hitter on the court. Her discipline and passion for the game really set her apart. Hadley will be playing for [program_tooltip program_id='428591' first='FC' last='Elite'] 16 Elite this season, and it will be exciting to see how she elevates her game over the next several months. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["556658"],"_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-693ae32a972f2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gretchen is a dominant force out of the middle. Her efficiency is truly impressive; she hit 0.307 during her freshman season at Dominican. Gretchen does her job on the court and elevates the game of those around her. Not only was her high school season excellent, but she also impressed at our Exposure Tour. When I saw her play during the Exposure Tour, she demonstrated great ball control and disciplined movement, making her even more dangerous against her opponents. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["898828"],"_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-693ae32a9733b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mallory is a dynamic, versatile player. She can find nearly any spot on the court with her swing and is always ready for the ball. She handles tip coverage well and doesn't miss a beat in transition. Her fundamentals are solid, and she does whatever her team needs to get the point. She is highly efficient, hitting 0.284 for Edgar as a freshman. Mallory will also be a leader and impact player for her [program_tooltip program_id='428662' first='Wisconsin' last='Ice'] team. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["915803"],"_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-693ae32a97385"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Scarlett is a middle to watch. She is already playing at an incredibly high level. Her power alone can turn heads. But it isn't just her power that sets her apart; she has great court awareness, a toolbox of shots, and an explosive approach. Scarlett rarely makes an error, and her swings pack a punch. She was a huge addition to Port Washington's lineup this year. She hit 0.356 and led the team with 77 blocks. Her contributions on both offense and defense show how well-rounded she is. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
