<p>We've moved past the sectional round and are waiting patiently for Saturday's arrival. The regional round for all four classes will be played throughout the state at various sites, and it can be overwhelming to find the right pair of matches that are worth the price of admission. Here at PrepDig, we pride ourselves on finding the athletes that might not get as much publicity as some of the other big-time recruits. Here are five freshmen from four different schools that are major factors in their respective teams' successes.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">High and hard is all you need to be a successful outside hitter, and Miss Wright is all about attacking at her max jump and hammering away at undisciplined blocks and defenders. She's also a major factor in efficiency (hitting over .350 on the season) and floor defense (averaging over 3 digs per set). Although the latter two stat lines might not get as much attention, her well-rounded game shines through on a match-by-match basis, and will be key in Covington moving beyond Saturday.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The second of a pair of pin attackers at Covington, Reagan's a smaller carbon copy of her teammate Meredith, but brings a very similar skill set. With a solid stat line of 3 kps/3 dps/.300+ as an outside hitter, Reagan is the reliable six-rotation outside most coaches covet when wishing to advance far into a state tournament.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Spending a little time at both outside and setter, we'll spend this column space talking about her 3+ kills per set and 2+ digs per set. Knowing that she's got a well-rounded game at the 1A level gives Maggie an advantage that a lot of kids don't have—-court vision, anticipation and an overall feel for the game that is lost on a lot of other freshmen.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Small but mighty, Stella has the top number of assists among all 1A freshmen, averaging almost 10 assists per set. That number is important, as she's the chief quarterback of a Cougar offense that needs her level of efficiency and volleyball IQ to find the right hitter in the right situation at all times. Additionally, she defends her position well, averaging a couple of digs per set. I'm always partial to setters, but Miss Reed is a fun watch for her athletic acuity AND her knowledge of the game.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">I cannot emphasize enough how important being big and physical at the 1A level can be. Add in Mallory's high-end Boiler Juniors training, and you'll see immediately that Miss Edmonds can command a match with her presence alone. A solid blocker in her own right, Mallory will be much needed on the offensive end as well as defense in order for Rossville to advance beyond Saturday.</p>
