Elms is a player college coaches should have on their radar, as her athleticism and versatility give her the potential to be an asset at the next level. On the pin, she brings a different look with a wide range of shots and a high volleyball IQ that allows her to find ways to score. Defensively, Elms is too valuable to take off the court, as she is a relentless defender who anchors serve receive and consistently keeps rallies alive.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["891564"],"_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-6a81e32025c60"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cailin Hall is coming off a successful club season and enters her junior year ready to help her high school team reach new heights. Hall's volleyball IQ is what sets her apart, as she sees the court well, distributes efficiently, and makes quick decisions within the offense. She is a strong setter who can push the ball from anywhere on the court, consistently putting her hitters in a good position to score. Defensively, Hall is scrappy and works hard to keep rallies alive, making her a valuable presence in every rotation.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["812796"],"_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-6a81e32025c8b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Eden Johnson enters her senior year poised to make a major impact this fall. Johnson is a versatile athlete who can contribute from anywhere on the court, putting up big time numbers on the pin while also providing a strong presence in the back row. Offensively, she brings a powerful arm swing and does a great job seeing the court, finding open shots and exploiting opposing defenses. Johnson is especially effective in pass to transition situations, where her quickness and ability to terminate on the outside pin make her a difficult matchup.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1004248"],"_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-6a81e32025cbe"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Alyvia Lane is one of those recruits college coaches should keep an eye on. Lane plays beyond her years and is set to take on an important role for her high school team this season. She is a dynamic middle blocker who has already gained valuable experience playing up in the 18s age group for her club team. Offensively, Lane can attack in multiple directions and is quick in transition, making her a difficult matchup at the net. Defensively, she takes away a lot of space with her block and consistently puts up solid numbers, giving her the tools to make a major impact this fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1006039"],"_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-6a81e32025cf1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Madeline Miller is a well rounded defensive specialist who provides a steady presence in the back row. Entering her senior season, Miller looks poised to play an important role as her team pushes toward a successful postseason run. She covers a lot of court in serve receive and consistently puts up solid defensive numbers. What sets Miller apart is her ability to read opposing hitters and anticipate where the ball is going, allowing her to put herself in the right position to make big defensive plays.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
