Meiring is their top offensive threat as she has been a go-to arm for four varsity seasons, including a match-high 26 kills in the semifinal victory. With over 1,400 career kills, she is averaging 3.8 k/s in 2026. She has also picked up over 1,000 digs. In the Falcons convincing 3-0 win over Taylor in the regional finals, Meiring put down 20 kills with her versatility and big arm skills. She typically gets a healthy dose of offensive work as she is terminal from the back row to support the power and range she can swing with on the left pin. With one step from the state crown, we should see a lot of Meiring's arm in the final opportunity of her terrific varsity career for the Falcons. Fenwick was last in the state chamionship match in 2024 during Meiring's sophomore season. They fell to Lake Catholic 3-1 as she put down 19 kills in that contest. The biggest stage has been a place she has thrived so expect her to bring it in her final match.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1064311"],"_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-6af6832a46429"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Keller is a three-year varsity member for Fenwick, which includes sharing time in the setting role in 2024 when the Falcons last earned a state championship appearance. Her senior season has been one of total control of Fenwick's offense as she provides a 10.7 a/s average, which ultimately has guided the Falcons back to the ship with an opportunity to hoist the DIV trophy when all is said and done. Fenwick defeated Gallia Academy in the semifinal round as Keller dished a match-high 48 assists in the 3-1 victory. She also collected 13 digs. At 5'6, she was a 2nd team all-GCL selection in 2025 only to come back and lead the league in total assists this year as Fenwick finish tied atop the league standings with a 9-1 record. She does a good job of getting herself into good situations to contact the ball with balance and good control of her touch and force. As she has a prolific arm as her primary target, she involves others well to help spread the ball around and keep the opposing defense honest. The top-ranked Falcons will next take on #7 Ottawa-Glanddorf in the DIV state championship bout as Keller will likely surpass 1,000 total assists for the 2026 season during that match as she currently sits at 989.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["480837"],"_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-6af678a3d5dd0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Seton has earned their shot at a three-peat as they defeated #5 ranked Olentangy Liberty 3-0. Their star is Moeddel, who has been simply spectacular this season, including a match high 14 kills in the semis. The only GGCL attacker to earn over 400 kills in 2026, she is the league's Player of the Year, following up on her first-team honor from 2025 when Seton won their second consecutive DI state title through an unbeaten season. She has good length and a high touch point, which emphasizes her versatility on offense and the big presence she creates on the defensive side as she had six blocks in their recent win. The trajectory of her varsity career has been impressive as she started as a key supporting factor in Seton's state title run in 2024 before entering the spotlight in 2025 for a more prolific role. This final season she has been dominant. In the postseason, the Xavier commit has averaged 3.9 k/s. The Saints have a unique opportunity to not only claim a third straight state title in DI, but also through a second consecutive unbeaten season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["480814"],"_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-6af678a3d5e17"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Geibel is a 5'6 six-rotation pin with a ton of punch to her game. Dalton advanced to the DVI state championship match with their win over Garaway. Bowing out in the regional final round the past two seasons, Geibel will get her shot at the title. The WCAL's MVP for 2026, had a monster effort in their semifinal win as she earned a match-high 23 kills to go with 13 digs for a double-double stat line. She has earned over 1,500 kills for her career with her final season being her best overall. Her career best numbers across the board are impressive as she has increased her effort to 5.0 k/s on an improved efficiency of .347 and 43% kill rate. Defensively, this is her first among her four varsity seasons over 400 total digs as her season average of 15.2 d/m is also a career high.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["946251"],"_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-6af678a3d5e5e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Boerger has once again put up big setting numbers in her final varsity season for Fort Loramie. With nearly 900 assists, she has slightly increased her effort to a career best 10.7 a/s for the #2 ranked team in DVII. Following this recent state semifinals win, a 3-0 sweep of Newark Catholic, the 2025 DVI state champs, Boerger will have a chance to lead her team to a state crown as they get set to face the top-ranked Senecas of Calvert. Her experience and floor leadership served her team well as she had 38 assists with her top three targets all earning 12 kills apiece for terrific balance. Avenging their regional final loss to Russia in 2025, Fort Loramie defeated the Raiders this time around by the same 3-2 outcome as season ago as the athletic Boerger dished 42 assists. That was her seventh match with 40+ dimes this season. The balanced attack she can create will make for a competitive championship match as both teams feature multiple point scoring options.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
