Who Would Be On My 3A Iowa All Star Roster?

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The State Tournament was definitely one to remember. It was so much fun watching the wide variety of players with various skillsets throughout the week. I wanted to make a post highlighting some of my favorite players throughout the week and similar to how the tournament has all-tournament teams, I wanted to make an All-Star Roster for each class. We will be starting off with the 3A class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>To keep up with state tournament coverage make sure to follow me on Instagram @Prepdigmarissa</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["545946"],"_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-6aefc5b520658"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Addi Waldorf is a very offensive setter with an impressively high IQ.
