<p class="text-gray-700">Monteleone will lead Club South 15-1 in the event's 15s Division. A dynamic and productive offensive player, she brings a lot to the table when it comes to scoring points. Monteleone gets off the floor very well, can execute many different shots with impressive accuracy and is excellent with her decision-making, picking the best option for each occasion. The outside hitter has a solid all-around game and also appears well in serve-receive by covering a large portion of the court and, when playing defense, thanks to her nice reflexes and ball control.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Bierman is part of the Catalyst 16 Green team that's entered in the tournament's 16s Division. Tall and explosive, she's a power hitter and should have a prominent role in the team's offense this weekend. Even though she uses her heavy right arm and her firepower extremely well, Bierman is probably at her best when she gets to swing a quick set at the pin, which allows her to take full advantage of gaps in the block and put the ball down. An aggressive server, she consistently gets opponents out of system with her floaters and also contributes on the back row with reliable passing and nice effort on defense.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Solomon will feature for [program_tooltip program_id='745880' first='Houston' last='Stellar'] 17 Elite in the 17s Division. With a solid combination of strong athletic tools at the net and nice technical skills on the back row, she's a true six-rotation pin hitter who gets to make a sizeable impact in the game. Solomon is an excellent jumper, sees the game very well and is a scoring threat from both the left and the right, making use of her impressive firepower to put the ball down, but also turning to tips and shots when she has to. Her back row skills are absolutely elite and allow her to control the game with her passing and generate many transition opportunities with her defense.</p>
