Gray's annual cycle of both high school and club ball is one that challenges her in both her training and competitive experience. The 6'0 primary outside hitter gets a lot of opportunities to swing, helping boost her visibility and impact for her teams. As an attacker, she continues to demonstrate her ability to control her arm to swing aggressively through space or to challenge the edges of the defense well. Cleveland Volleyball Company (CVC) 17 Black is competing in the 17 Open division as begins competition as the #34 seed overall.

There isn't a more dynamic arm in the Ohio 2027 class at 5'9 or under. Goetz can flat out bring it at the top of her jump, which is the result of her athleticism, efficient footwork to close to the ball, explosiveness off the floor, and the arm speed she can create to the point of contact. Her action in her passing, defense, and attacking appears effortless given the fluid nature of her movement. TVC 17 Black will open play in 17 USA as the #17 seed overall.

Montgomery has continued to expand her offensive versatility with high impact. The 5'11 outside hitter can pass in serve receive while also bringing an explosive swing that can move the ball across the net with big pace from the force she can generate when in rhythm and on time to contact. She can bring it at the net as well as in her ability to match that aggressiveness from the back row. Mintonette m.72 is the #10 overall seed in the 17 USA division.
