She plays with a lot of poise and does a good job of mixing up the attack locations without tipping her hand.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='782946' first='Catie' last='Jilek'], Portage Central/FaR Out (2029)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jilek has really made her name known around the country after an outstanding club season with FaR Out. She has proven she can do it all as a setter/hitter combo. The sky is the limit for where she can go, but be sure she will turn some heads this weekend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='777145' first='Andersyn' last='King'], Harper Creek/FaR Out (2029)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>King has made a big splash from the day she stepped on the floor for Harper Creek, and followed it up with great play on the club scene. The touch on her sets is hard to match, but her instincts for the position are at an elite level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='456251' first='Alexa' last='Turner'], SMCC/Athlete HQ (2027)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Turner is another combo setter/hitter option that shows a lot of leadership and leaves everything she has on the court. Turner can make a key play in all phases of the game and will be driven to be one of the top players at this showcase.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='664290' first='Heidi' last='White'], East Grand Rapids/MVA (2028)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>White has a high ceiling as one of the top 2028 setters. She's looks really comfortable in her role and knows how to get the offense into another gear. White has all the sets in her arsenal and should get a lot of great swings out of the hitters she works with.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='743769' first='Joeleigh' last='White'], Gull Lake/USA Michigan (2028)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>White moves really smoothly on the floor and shows a lot of athleticism at the position, which helps her make some really challenging sets remain accurate. White also has the ability to play the right side, as she's got a lot of explosiveness off the floor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
