The 5'11 senior nearly pulled off a rare triple double as she put on an offensive clinic with 37 kills on a .477 efficiency. On the defensive side, she picked up 15 digs while showing dominance at the net with eight blocks. The Gannon University commit has boosted her four-year varsity average to 5.1 k/s on a total of 1,595 kills. She is physical and athletic with great court awareness to make plays both in and out of system. The Cavaliers will next take on Sheridan, ranked #20 in the most recent DIII state poll.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["910113"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6adcd78b2b5a1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">New Bremen is the #2 ranked team in Division VI. Eilerman has been one of the Cardinals' top offensive factors as she is averaging a career best 2.9 k/s. With a team high 14 kills and one of her best outputs in 2026, Eilerman led New Bremen to a convincing 3-0 win over Lima Central Catholic to set up a showdown with #3 ranked Parkway. The 6'0 middle is critical to her team's rotation as she if efficient offensively at a team leading .360 while complementing that offense by leading them in blocking with a 3.1 b/m average. She brings good physicality at the net with high contact and ability to swing towards space with control and force.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1055538"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6adcd78b2bb22"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The sophomore effort from Ramsey has been stellar and a big leap from the quality she brought as a freshman in 2025. Leading Mathews this season at a career high 4.2 k/s, she has demonstrated her ability to score in high volume. Mathews defeated Heartland Christian 3-1 to begin postseason play. Ramsey led the charge offensively with her fifth match of the season over 20 total kills. She terminated 23 kills on another efficient effort at .377. Ramsey does a good job to get her feet to the ball to swing aggressively. As she improves her arm speed, she will become an even bigger impact offensively going forward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1055539"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6adcd78b2bb7c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Vernon has been providing her most productive effort of her career in her final season. With a career high 253 kills, she is fifth overall among ECC offensive leaders. Her 2.9 k/s average was eclipsed in Walnut Hills' most recent match as Vernon provided a team high 18 kills, which balanced well what she did on the defensive side with 15 digs for the double-double stat line. At 5'10, Vernon is a versatile attacker that is patient and develops good space to play the ball with range and touch when needed. The Eagles' 3-2 win over Princeton propels them to another postseason opportunity versus Milford.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["766473"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6adcd78b2bbc4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mentor wrapped up their regular season with a non-conference match versus Archbishop Hoban. Their 3-1 win was a great tune-up for their forthcoming first playoff match versus Brusnwick in the DI Northeast 2 sectional. Daugherty (*pictured) provided a complete effort as she led the Cardinals with a team high 15 kills along with in impressive 17 digs. At 5'8, she has good tools in all phases of the game as her impact is broad in using her arm and when defending at the net and from the back row.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
