She shuffles efficiently with quickness and balance to help her get into good situations in serve receive. Defensively, she digs and pursues the ball with her platform extended and away from her body which allows for better control and range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["508697"],"_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-699f8b80d5b86"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gillespie has been a high volume defensive factor throughout her high school career. With 930 digs, she has a three-year average of 15.8 d/m. Competing for [program_tooltip program_id='936186' first='CVC' last='']'s top 17U team this club season, she does a good job of getting balanced and ready to absorb the pace of the attack coming across the net through good angle adjustments. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["763928"],"_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-699f8b80d5bf2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Darr's 2025 high school season highlighted her range of skills as she was key for [program_tooltip program_id='936186' first='CVC' last='']A with her two-way effort as a point scoring attacker and setter. As a hitter, she drives up well with good extension that benefitted her ability to terminate from both sides of the court. She averaged 1.8 k/s as part of their core trio of arms. Her setter numbers included 225 total assists.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["883330"],"_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-699f8b80d5c59"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brown earned 126 kills in 2025 for a 2.1 k/s average for Whitmer. The 6'0 pin is left-handed with good footwork to get to the ball to help her balance. A more natural factor on the right pin, when balanced in the air she gains range and power. An area for improvement is driving both arms upward to add lift and consistency in the balance that can increase her rate of impact.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["592217"],"_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-699f8b80d5ca7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Competing with NKYVC 17-1 Tsunami, Katuska adds depth to the setting role and this team's overall effort from the right side of the court. As a setter, she has touch and control that can effectively involve this groups big attackers in all positions. When in system, she can distribute the fast tempo offense they like to run, which is a key part of their success.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
