Ultimate Competitors: Class of 2028

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Some athletes just bring a different level of intensity.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>They are ready from the first whistle and stay locked in until the final point. They compete for every ball, take on big moments, and make plays when their team needs them most. That is what makes an Ultimate Competitor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This Class of 2028 group brings plenty of athleticism, toughness, and the kind of presence that can change a match.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1007939"],"_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-6a62556d0d15d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jensen brings the athleticism of a dual-sport athlete to the volleyball court, and it shows. Her movement is smooth, her timing is sharp, and she can transition from setting to attacking to blocking without missing a beat. She is always ready for the next play and finds ways to stay involved throughout the match. That versatility is impressive, but her competitive mindset makes her stand out even more. Jensen is the type of athlete you want next to you when the match gets tight. She brings energy, confidence, and the kind of leadership that teammates can follow.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":1008722,"_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-6a62556d0d1d8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gilbert is not someone you want to test at the net. Her timing is excellent when she attacks, but her blocking may be where she really makes opponents uncomfortable. Gilbert presses hard over the net and takes away space, making it difficult for hitters to find a clean swing. She also has a knack for showing up in big moments. Whether she is shutting down an attack or putting one away herself, Gilbert continues to find ways to make an impact. That ability to step up when the moment matters makes her an Ultimate Competitor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":1008749,"_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-6a62556d0d228"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kreutzer is the quarterback of the offense, and she knows how to run the show. She does an excellent job creating opportunities for her hitters and putting them in positions to swing without having to worry about a big block in front of them. Her height also makes her a threat at the net, forcing blockers to respect her as an offensive option. That opens even more doors for her teammates. Defensively, she brings that same competitive energy and stays ready to make a play. Kreutzer is always going all out for her team, and that mentality is exactly what makes her an Ultimate Competitor.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Ultimate Competitors</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>These girls compete, stay ready, and they find ways to make an impact.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>That is what makes them our Ultimate Competitors for the Class of 2028.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>For more Colorado volleyball coverage, player features, rankings, recruiting content, and more, follow @prepdigcolorado on Instagram.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
