<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1023185' first='Elizabeth' last='Polsgrove'] has been a player we have been watching closely over the last couple of months, and she continues to impress. She is an exciting young athlete who brings elite athleticism and explosiveness to the court, already leading Pine Creek with 26 blocks while averaging 2.1 kills per set. Polsgrove has quickly established herself as a go to attacker who can put the ball away in crucial moments. As just a freshman, Polsgrove is already making a big impact and looks like a player who will continue to take major strides as she develops.</p>

What makes her impact even more impressive is that she spent much of club season playing middle blocker while still contributing in serve receive. Cox brings consistency, strong court awareness, and the ability to find ways to score from anywhere on the floor.</p>

Cheatham is a high flyer who brings size and athleticism to the court, pairing a fast arm swing with the ability to score efficiently in a fast tempo offense.
