Welcome to the Rankings: Class of 2029 (Part 6)

<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Five more freshmen proving that the 2029 class may be one of Georgia's deepest yet.</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The growth of this class has been impossible to ignore. Each week, more freshmen surface with varsity-level poise, advanced mechanics, and the kind of raw potential that signals big things ahead. This next group continues that trend — a blend of size, ball control, athletic upside, and competitive fire</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["913834"],"_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-6930a00fe0872"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Olivia is poised, composed, and already running offense with the efficiency of an upperclassman. Her hands are clean, her tempo control is mature, and she makes smart, calculated decisions under pressure. She connects well with hitters, communicates consistently, and shows all the foundational qualities of a future high-level setter.<strong><em> ~ Samantha Fitzgerald @</em>BenchtoBeast</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["913838"],"_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-6930a00fe090f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kameren brings a dynamic and creative style to the setting position. She moves well, reads defenses early, and isn't afraid to speed up or slow down her offense to create mismatches. Her athleticism gives her range on tight balls, and her leadership presence is already forming. A fluid, energetic setter with long-term upside.<strong><em> ~ Samantha Fitzgerald @</em>BenchtoBeast</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["731322"],"_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-6930a00fe0986"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sawyer is a defensive technician. She reads early, moves compactly, and keeps her platform incredibly steady through contact. Her consistency in serve-receive stands out, and she adds vocal presence that helps stabilize rotations. A freshman libero with polish, IQ, and a work ethic that jumps off the court.<strong><em> ~ Samantha Fitzgerald @</em>BenchtoBeast</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["822558"],"_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-6930a00fe0a23"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ava is explosive, fast off the floor, and reads the game beautifully for her age. She tracks hitters early, closes blocks with clarity, and brings an efficient, high-contact swing through the middle. Her combination of quickness, control, and natural timing makes her one of the most intriguing young middles in the class.<strong><em> ~ Samantha Fitzgerald @</em>BenchtoBeast</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["913839"],"_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-6930a00fe0a93"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ana is a strong, physical attacker who brings immediate front-row impact. She hits with force, blocks well across the net, and competes with a fearlessness that makes her a problem for opposing setters. Her athletic frame and competitive intensity give her a high long-term ceiling on the right pin.<strong><em> ~ Samantha Fitzgerald @</em>BenchtoBeast</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Closing Thought</strong></h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Six articles in, and the Class of 2029 continues to deliver wave after wave of talent.
