Most of these kids already are in high school. Their recruiting processes are underway in various stages. Now that we're at the end of the season, however, it's a good time to check in on the 14Us, many of whom will be freshmen in a few months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I did just that last week at the USAV Junior National Tournament in Indianapolis. The age group impressed and foreshadowed what should be strong contributions to the prep scene in 2026 and beyond.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here's a closer look at Iowa 14Us that performed well on the sport's biggest stage:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1004306"],"_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-6a4ebaf449ea3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">On a team packed with talent all around her, Schaefer does well taking care of her responsibilities. It's a reason why Select 14s won the Iowa Regional and finished 11th in the National Division at USAV Nationals. Schaefer is a reliable two-way middle with present production and a chance for much more ahead. Already capable of ending points with a swing that has juice and a block that proves consistently effective, the incoming Assumption freshman has a ways to go before reaching her ceiling, which is great news for her and the teams for which she competes. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1004312"],"_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-6a4ebf420b217"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">CIA's 14U team will have great memories from the 2026 season that will last a lifetime. They will include reaching the gold bracket in the USA Division at USAV Junior Nationals, where it finished fifth, tops for the club this year. Kiewiet played an important role in the great run. She has a keen feel for match flow in the middle of the net, getting to her spots. Kiewiet makes herself available for the setter to end points with an impressive swing. Her timing and read on the block leads to consistent success. Kiewiet is one to watch moving forward. She saw varsity time on as a freshman last season for a Grundy Center team that reached the state semifinals. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1004325"],"_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-6a4ed847955bb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Six Pack 14s put together a strong campaign that took them all the way to the USAV Junior National Tournament. Bain showed on that big stage that she's a name to know on the Iowa prep and club scene heading into her freshman year at Waverly-Shell Rock. There's explosion off of the court and excellent athleticism playing in the middle of the net. She generates power in her swing and makes life difficult for the opponent attack with her stiff block. Bain's agility and mobility would allow for success at the pins, too. She's a prospect packed with potential playing in a pair of program's with a history of success helping student-athletes reach it. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1004328"],"_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-6a4eda1de36e5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Adrenaline 14s experienced a season to remember in 2026. The Cedar Rapids-area club qualified for the USAV Junior Nationals and boasted a roster filled with prospects poised to make more noise moving forward. Bisinger certainly was among the most impactful players, operating at libero when I watched this team in Indianapolis. She moves well laterally, tracks the ball to get to her spots and delivers crisp passes. Bisinger's consistent digs and success in serve-receive allowed Adrenaline to take advantage of its strong attack. She's a talent worth monitoring moving forward. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1004335"],"_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-6a4ee210cdf01"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">In what was a strong year in the state for 14U, Iowa Juniors pushed through for a bid to USAV Junior Nationals. It confirmed it was a squad with interesting prospects all around the court when I watched it in Indy. Collum showed she was a name to know with her strong two-way play at the net. There's power in the swing that can end rallies with authority. A good feel for match flow and sense of the opponent's intentions help get her in place for blocks. Collum has a high ceiling and an excellent chance to reach it coming up through the Ankeny program. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
