At the NorCal StockUp Showcase on August 14, 2026, in Ripon, CA, a group of right side hitters and setters did exactly that.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If you are one of the athletes below, this is worth celebrating.

Her arm swing carries real weight, and she closes the last two steps to the ball with the kind of speed that lets her get all the way through her swing. She plays with versatility that stands out, comfortable on the pin or in the middle, and her athleticism and court movement hold up regardless of where she lines up. Her hands stay clean at the net, and she is a legitimate threat in the front row.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["985825"],"_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-6a81dd16243b8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='985825' first='Alegra' last='Arceo'] earned Top Performer at the NorCal StockUp Showcase, August 14, 2026.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Alegra takes strong angles on serve receive and plays with a workhorse mentality that shows up on every rotation. She manages the ball consistently, and she has a knack for making plays happen even when the set in front of her is not perfect, which is a skill that takes real court awareness to develop. She contributes in the front row as a blocking option as well, aligning with the middle and doing solid work closing the block. Her hustle and attitude make her a strong player to watch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1017950"],"_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-6a81dd16243f4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1017950' first='Hannah' last='Dungca'] earned Top Performer at the NorCal StockUp Showcase, August 14, 2026.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hannah leads her team vocally, and that kind of leadership from the setter position sets the tone for how her whole offense operates. Her feet are fast getting under the ball, which gives her more time to make a clean, deliberate set rather than rushing a contact. She does not give up on her team when a play starts to break down, and she makes every effort to put a hittable ball up for her attackers, even when the situation in front of her is not easy.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["894393"],"_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-6a81dd162442b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='894393' first='Liliana' last='Evans'] earned Top Performer at the NorCal StockUp Showcase, August 14, 2026.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Liliana plays with a lively, high energy style that is noticeable the moment she steps on the court, and that energy translates into how her teammates respond to her. She brings good hands to the setter position and shows early signs of the ball control coaches want to see continue to develop. She is a strong teammate on top of it, the kind of setter who makes the players around her want to compete harder.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">If You Enjoyed This Article, Help Us Keep the Momentum Going</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>🔥 <strong>Athletes:</strong> Setters and right sides run the offense, and the habits that make that possible (ball control, footwork, decision making under pressure) are exactly what evaluators are watching for. These four athletes are proof that the players who control tempo and manage broken plays are the ones who get noticed. PrepDig gives you three ways to build on that visibility: showcases like StockUp put you in front of real evaluators outside of regular season play, our social media turns performances like these into content coaches and clubs actually see, and our articles start building your name and your story around the habits that make an offense work.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>📣 <strong>Club Coaches &amp; Directors:</strong> The setters and right sides on this list show what it looks like when ball control and offensive decision making are being developed the right way. Showcases like StockUp give your setters and right sides a chance to be evaluated specifically for those skills, outside of the pressure of pool play. PrepDig works as an extension of your program at every position, whether that means getting your setters and right sides seen, featuring your club's offensive identity on social media, or building recognition for the players who make your offense function. Keep your club updated with the <a href="https://prepdig.com/california/clubs/club-programs/">California Club Program Database</a> and stay connected to every opportunity we create for exposure.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>🎯 <strong>College Coaches:</strong> This group represents setters and right side hitters whose ball control, footwork, and offensive decision making stood out, streamed live for programs tracking NorCal talent from anywhere. PrepDig exists to make that long-range evaluation process easier, combining live scouted events, consistent social media coverage, and detailed athlete profiles so you can track the players who run an offense before they show up on your radar organically. <a href="https://prepdig.com/college-subscribe/">Use a Premium College Subscription</a> to identify the outsides and middles other programs are not tracking yet.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>🙏 <strong>Parents &amp; Supporters:</strong> Setting and right side play do not always get the same attention as a big swing from the outside, but the coaches evaluating your daughter's game know exactly how much ball control and offensive IQ are worth. PrepDig helps you understand that value through events that put her in front of real evaluators, social media that celebrates the habits she has built, and articles that tell her story as a playmaker, not just a stat line.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>🚀 <strong><a href="https://prepdig.com/my-account/subscriptions/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Upgrade to a PrepDig+ Subscription</a></strong><br>Access exclusive rankings, deeper analysis, and the full Prospect Index to follow every athlete's journey.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:image {"lightbox":{"enabled":false},"id":1003951,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"custom"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://prepdig.com/recruiting-resources/"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2026/07/image_3e909a.png?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-1003951"/></a></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Thank you for making today's wins matter — one article, one player, one memory at a time.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>~ Michelle Bamford @Coachable247</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
