<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Only two clubs qualified for bids in Open. Unlike the AAU, in the USAV teams must qualify to play in Open. That means playing in tournaments outside the DMV area against teams in other Regions. Only the top teams advance. For the Chesapeake and Old Dominion Region Metro and Paramount were the two clubs to advance to the Open Division. Last year Maryland Juniors put together a 14 team to qualify for Open, but most of those players moved this year to either Metro Travel or Metro National. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It was a good year for Metro. All their teams from 14-17 qualified for Open prior to the Chesapeake Regional Bid Championships. [program_tooltip program_id='476729' first='Paramount' last=''] qualified two age groups, but it was after the Chesapeake Regional Bid Championships. The Open Division in Junior Nationals is the gold standard. Only the Triple Crown can compare for the quality of competition. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":1} --> <h1 class="wp-block-heading">Open Division 14</h1> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Metro Travel</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>AES Ranking</strong> - 2nd locally and 19th Nationally</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>How They Qualified</strong> - Metro took second in the Mideast Qualifier, losing only to Legacy.

As the season has progressed their worst finish in a tournament has been 7th place in the Windy City Qualifier. Once you qualify for open the coaches get an opportunity to experiment with their lineup and keep the starters fresh.

Carolyn is a regular with the NTDP as a setter. However, if they allow her to mix with the hitters she may also shine as one of the top right side hitters in the country. Recently, she and her teammate <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='750047' first='Caroline' last='Conroy']</strong> were named to the 2026 JVA Girls Class of 2028 All National Team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">She also earned a spot on the WCAC first team, one of two frosh to be named to the team. [player_tooltip player_id='748487' first='Sierra' last='Thomas'] was the other.

There, they were upset by [program_tooltip program_id='494409' first='Blue' last='Ridge'] in the finals but still earned the [program_tooltip program_id='494409' first='Blue' last='Ridge'] USA bid. They backed into a 7th place Show Me Qualifier Bid when the top six teams of the tournament had already won an Open bid. Sometimes it is not how you got to the dance that is important, but that you are in the dance. At that point you make an impact. A 37th place finish in the Triple Crown stood out. The Power Pool is made from the top 22 clubs so they almost fell within that.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Top Prospect to Watch - </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["747560"],"_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-6a341b9500a57"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">There are a number of 6'1" bangers from the left side who are certainly deserving of playing in Division I. Elliot is one of those. She really broke out playing for Woodbridge High School getting them close to playing in the State bracket. Unfortunately, they fell short of getting to that dance. Now that she is in the Open Junior Nationals dance it will be her time to shine.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>She plays six rotations, hitting missiles from the back row. The last time I watched her play her passing could use some more polish but having her in the back row for her offensive production gathers the points.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Definitely, a player you want to take a look at. This class of 2029 is loaded with talented pins and she clearly sits atop thatlist.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Other Ranked Prospects to Watch - Libero/DS <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='747458' first='Angelie' last='Rose Carrasco']</strong> (9), middle <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='763151' first='Sydney' last='Lewis']</strong> (14), right side<strong> [player_tooltip player_id='779106' first='Isabella' last='Jeantel']</strong> (15), setter <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='747031' first='Braylin' last='Coacher']</strong> (19), middle <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='787919' first='Charlotte' last='Booth']</strong> (20), setter<strong> [player_tooltip player_id='752431' first='Kayla' last='Chang']</strong> (34), middle <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='893947' first='Annika' last='Warren']</strong> (42), Libero/DS <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='763157' first='Olivia' last='Li']</strong> (47), middle <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='755129' first='Lillian' last='Battcock']</strong> (52), Left Side <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='756340' first='Erin' last='Moir']</strong> (58), middle <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='755132' first='Abigail' last='Battcock']</strong> (65), Libero/DS <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='895591' first='Aleah' last='Merrbaugh']</strong> (129)</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":1} --> <h1 class="wp-block-heading">Open Division 16</h1> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Metro Travel</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>AES Ranking </strong>- 1st locally and 15th nationally</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>How They Qualified </strong>- A third place finish in the Sunshine Classic earned them an early bid.

Only two clubs qualified for bids in Open. Unlike the AAU, in the USAV teams must qualify to play in Open. That means playing in tournaments outside the DMV area against teams in other Regions. Only the top teams advance. For the Chesapeake and Old Dominion Region Metro and Paramount were the two clubs to advance to the Open Division. Last year Maryland Juniors put together a 14 team to qualify for Open, but most of those players moved this year to either Metro Travel or Metro National.
