Pins Ready to Perform at Stock Up

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The largest group is always the hitters. This won't change Sunday in Kansas City as Prep Dig prepares for the Stock Up Showcase. As always, to prepare, I search who's attending, watch some video, and highlight some of those who will be in the house. Here are some of the pins joining us. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["901871"],"_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-6a6255844576f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The left-handed opposite had a strong spring, from what I saw, with Mavs. She hits a heavy ball and does a nice job of finding different spots on the floor with her attack. She also has good length, which helps her get plenty of blocks and touches at the net. After seeing action in 53 sets for Blue Valley Northwest as a freshman, she has an opportunity to take on an even bigger role this fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["742594"],"_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-6a625584457f2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bradshaw recorded north of 180 kills and 180 digs during her freshman season at Newton, showing early on that she can contribute on both sides of the ball. Offensively, she does a good job of using the block to her advantage while also showing the ability to find open spots on the floor. With just one high school season under her belt, Bradshaw is a young player with a high ceiling and plenty of room to continue expanding her game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["511942"],"_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-6a6255844584e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Maka enters her junior season with nearly 700 career kills and 700 digs, showing her ability to make an impact on both sides of the ball. She plays her club ball with Shockwave and has shown she can handle her own defensively, both at the net and in the back row. Since I haven't had the opportunity to see her during the club season, I'm looking forward to seeing how her offensive game translates against the bigger blocks she may face this weekend and how she adjusts her attack when those challenges arise.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["937432"],"_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-6a625584458a4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hiner was solid in her debut high school season for Garden Plain last fall. Defensively, she has already shown she can be reliable, which is evident playing DS for her club team. Offensively is where I'm most interested in watching her this weekend. I want to see the variety of shots she has in her toolbox and how effectively she can find different ways to score against a talented field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["911937"],"_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-6a625584458fa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The southpaw is extremely athletic and can get up, giving her the ability to be a threat at the net. I also walked away impressed with her back-row defense on film, as she showed the ability to make plays beyond just her offensive contributions. I like what I see from her ability to mix up her shots and find different ways to score rather than relying solely on her athleticism. She played this past club season with Club North and is another athlete I'm looking forward to seeing in person.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["789060"],"_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-6a6255844594f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Van Horn product, Garay, stands at 5-foot-9 and can be impactful when given a good set. She has the size to be a presence at the net and looks capable of putting balls away when given opportunities. I'm interested to see how she performs against a strong group of competition and how consistently she can make her presence felt offensively.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
