6A Top-Ranked Teams

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rankings have begun in Oklahoma and this week some of the top teams faced one another on the court. Edmond Santa Fe, Edmond Memorial, and Jenks are all at the top of the rankings (for good reason). Their players are performing skills with precision, speed, and power. Here are some of the athletes on the highest rated teams in 6A volleyball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["752599"],"_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-6a95d896efd78"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='752599' first='Caryl' last='Womack'] plays bigger than her height in the middle. Caryl put down some huge kills against Edmond Memorial, including the match-ending power shot through the block. She backs up her offense with strong blocking at the net. Caryl's efficiency on both sides of the ball makes her a key contributor to Santa Fe's success so far this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":1037162,"_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-6a95d896efdb0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1037162' first='Eliana' last='Adriaanse'] is a sophomore middle for Santa Fe who earns both blocks and kills. Eliana especially stands out as a strong communicator. She points and talks about where the ball is moving before getting into position to make a play. That court awareness also helps her teammates move into better positions to earn blocks and digs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["752750"],"_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-6a95d896efdd6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='752750' first='Averie' last='Mannschreck'] earned some flashy points off powerful swings this week. Averie favors the deep cross-court shot but can score in a variety of ways. She begins her approach deep and turns that momentum into power that carries through her swing. Averie also uses a quick crossover step to get into position and put up a formidable block against the right-side attacker.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["752546"],"_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-6a95d896efdf9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='752546' first='Leighton' last='Bauer'] is a tall blocker who maintains good control of her body as she moves along the net. Leighton uses a calculated swing block to get into position. She presses her hands over the net with precise timing to earn blocks and touches for the defense. That combination of size, control, and timing is part of Edmond Memorial's success.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["756449"],"_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-6a95d896efe1a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='756449' first='Faizah' last='Omotayo'] moves dynamically along the net and swings from different angles to earn points for Jenks. Faizah is also a strong blocker who earns solo blocks and closes well on the double block. Against Bixby, she recorded kills from several positions and even scored on a short ace. Faizah has a knack for finding open floor and gives the Trojans several ways to score.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
