Stock Watch: Players Trending Up This Month

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>August Edition</em></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>August is bringing another group of players who are continuing to add to their game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Some are already making an impact at the high school level, while others are just getting started. From multi-sport athleticism to young front-row talent with plenty of size and power, this month's Stock Watch has a little bit of everything.</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-6a8b8cc1e7a85"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jensen is a multi-sport athlete, and her speed shows up quickly on the volleyball court. Her track and field background gives her the ability to cover ground, and she is not afraid to take off after a ball that looks out of reach. She reads the game well and has a strong sense of where the ball is heading. On top of that, Jensen can contribute in several ways. She can pass, set, and step over to the right side when her team needs an attack. That versatility, paired with her athleticism, makes her a player whose stock continues to rise.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":1021989,"_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-6a8b8cc1e7af4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fish brings the kind of all-around game that keeps her involved from start to finish. As a six-rotation outside, she is comfortable contributing in both the front and back row. Her approach has plenty of bounce, and her reach allows her to get on top of the ball when attacking. Meanwhile, she also brings a steady platform to the back row. Fish has the tools to impact multiple phases, making her a player worth watching as she continues to develop.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["904398"],"_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-6a8b8cc1e7b88"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">May is already turning heads at 6'3" as a member of the Class of 2030. However, it is not just her height that makes her interesting. She has a heavy arm and can attack with the kind of power that is hard to find at such a young age. She is already showing the makings of a strong middle and attacks with confidence beyond her years. There is still plenty of room for her to grow into that power, and once everything continues to click, opposing defenses are going to have a lot to deal with.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1011457"],"_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-6a8b8cc1e7bdc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cheatham is another young player bringing plenty of size to the Class of 2030 at 6'1". She has a quick arm and does a nice job getting herself available in transition, especially when running the slide. She is continuing to learn her angles and find the best ways to use her reach. When she connects, she can score. As those details continue to come together, Cheatham has a lot of potential to keep climbing.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Stock Still Rising</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jensen, Fish, May, and Cheatham are all bringing something different to the court, but they have one thing in common.
