<p>The best attackers aren't limited to one swing or one spot on the floor. Great teams have versatile hitters who can move around on offense and provide different options for the setters. So far this season, these five hitters have shown different ways to create points, whether that's attacking with power, finding open court, using the block or terminating out-of-system balls. Their versatility makes them difficult to defend and gives their teams options when they need a point.<br></p>

Harlow put up several blocks against OCS and created a strong defensive presence along the net. She transitions smoothly from digging to attacking and turns quality swings into points for her team. Her strong presence at the net helps keep Lincoln Christian near the top of the class.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Hailey Bridgeford showed why Metro Christian belongs in the rankings during a recent match against OCS. Hailey recorded several aces, including a well-placed serve that dropped directly into the seam. On the front row, she scored with hard attacks and controlled off-speed shots. Her block also funneled balls toward Metro's back-row defenders.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='752767' first='Tessa' last='Bond'] had an impressive match against Lincoln Christian. Tessa scored by attacking over the block and using the blockers' hands for tools. From the service line, she dropped a short ace in front of Lincoln Christian's passers. Her varied scoring makes Cascia Hall a strong contender in the rankings each week.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='761797' first='EJ' last='Rice'] gives Edmond Santa Fe a reliable scoring option on the outside. EJ put down several kills, especially when attacking a quicker-tempo ball to the pin. She also contributed a pair of aces and multiple block kills. Her range as a point scorer makes her a valuable young component in Edmond Santa Fe's line-up.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='937265' first='Marley' last='Dokes'] swung for several kills against Bixby, but the variety of those points stood out most. Marley scored from traditional sets, overpasses and even scored on out-of-system swings. She adjusts to imperfect balls and still finds smart attacking options. That versatility makes her a constant threat at the net for Jenks.</p>
