One thing she does well that helps her timing and spacing is tracking the ball to determine what is needed from her to be available to swing. Above the net and with good space, she can put some good pace and control on the ball. Expect her to score some big points for her club team at PSVBA.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["755125"],"_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-6942e196a2e28"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dewland is an athletic and versatile athlete at the net. She is quick and gets off the floor well, which benefits her ability to score through middle options around her setter as well as at the right pin. Laterally, she has a good first step in her defensive effort to be able to close space towards the pins when blocking while using her long range to get over the net well. Her ability to play middle or opposite increases her opportunities for impact for her PSVBA team this club season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["702584"],"_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-6942e196a2e78"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Garcia was fun to watch given her athleticism and the potential she displayed towards becoming a very dynamic middle. She is quick, has good agility in her movement off the net and laterally, while also showing good effort to create offensive range in attacking options both in front and behind her setter, along with control of her arm upon contact. Look for her to be a standout on both sides of the ball for her MODE team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["711121"],"_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-6942e196a2f13"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Barkema works hard to get herself into good offensive situations. Her footwork and timing are continuing to improve and when she develops the right space off the net and around her setter, she can take a healthy swing with an aggressive arm. It will be fun to see what she can accomplish through her upcoming 16U season with SIVBC.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["918811"],"_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-6942e196a2ec7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The junior Umlauf was the one athlete in the gym with the greatest length and range capabilities in what she can do at the net. At 6'4, she can contact high when swinging and fill up good space on the defensive side. With an improvement in her footwork and speed off the net, she can create a bigger runway and bigger impact capabilities with her physical tools. You can see her compete for WVBA this club season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
