Keep your eye on this athlete. <iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/9070302/5f4fdac6e97b9f0becd9c942" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> VCNebraska 17 Elite (2022’s) [player_tooltip player_id="58770" first="Ellie" last="Baumert"] | Malcolm | Texas Tech [player_tooltip player_id="88299" first="Alexis" last="Gates"] | Lincoln Southwest | Uncommitted (Injured) Alexis is transferring schools for her senior season and will be a welcome addition to the Silver Hawks. Gates is quick to the ball, has a long reach and can hold her own while serving. She’s a middle on the rise. [player_tooltip player_id="58771" first="Shayla" last="Meyer"] | Superior | Ole Miss [player_tooltip player_id="58803" first="Jordie" last="Nekl"] | Shelby Rising City | Uncommitted Nekl is a digging machine, always leading her back court. She’s got a fast engine and very scrappy. She’s very consistent with serve receiving, helping to keep her team in system. Watch her here: <iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/11262039/608dc571f31c510bf894c38f" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> [player_tooltip player_id="58801" first="Karli" last="Symonsbergen"] | Lincoln Southwest | Southwest Minnesota State [player_tooltip player_id="58824" first="Peyton" last="Doucet"] | North Platte | Uncommitted Peyton also has a really nice serve receive. She has the great ability to keep the ball in play with her overall athleticism. Watch her here: <iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/11491801/60290e750c5e380ca07af264" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> [player_tooltip player_id="58777" first="Regan" last="Haith"] | Pius X | Uncommitted Haith is a physical player at the net, she’s long with a high reach. She has a quick swing and can hit the ball off of one foot. She can close blocks from pin to pin. I’ve seen her strength and IQ raise this season. <iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/12579271/60a1832c344a310894983f9a" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> [player_tooltip player_id="58805" first="Courtney" last="Holsteen"] | Lincoln Southwest [player_tooltip player_id="58791" first="Masa" last="Scheierman"] | York | South Dakota State [player_tooltip player_id="37528" first="Bekka" last="Allick"] | Waverly | University of Nebraska Premier 17 Gold [player_tooltip player_id="37546" first="Maisie" last="Boesiger"] | Norris | Nebraska [player_tooltip player_id="58779" first="Ella" last="Hazen"] | Millard West | Uncommitted Hazen is a utility player who will probably specialize in back row play at the next level. She also plays OH for her school and some in club also. [player_tooltip player_id="58785" first="Kealy" last="Kiviniemi"] | Bellevue West | Washburn [player_tooltip player_id="37555" first="Maddie" last="MacTaggart"] | Millard West | St. Cloud [player_tooltip player_id="58783" first="Skylar" last="McCune"] | Gretna | Creighton [player_tooltip player_id="58798" first="Sadie" last="Millard"] | Millard West | Uncommitted Sadie is the middle who can do it all. She can hold her own in the back row, she’s a beast at blocking and she’s got a great serve. She’s SO fast from pin to pin and she’s been the block leader of Class A for the last 2 years in high school. Sadie just won 4 medals at the state track meet. This multi-sport athlete is fast! Sadie is entertaining volleyball or track for the next level and I know she’ll succeed at whichever she chooses. [player_tooltip player_id="58782" first="Shaylee" last="Myers"] | Lincoln Southwest | Fresno State [player_tooltip player_id="37536" first="Emma" last="O’Neill"] | Papio South | Uncommitted O’Neill is a strong blocker and does a great job for her team at the net. She can react to sets quickly and get to the block. She adjusts well to what’s across the net. [player_tooltip player_id="37542" first="Ella" last="Waters"] | Norris | Uncommitted Waters is a long, powerful player. She’s got long arms, and a high contact point. This multi-sport athlete shares the club season with basketball, but she should be at full force for the club post-season. Watch for Waters to commit once she’s able to get on a few campuses. <iframe src="//www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/8251336/607f9d9cb5362d15248fdb82" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> [player_tooltip player_id="58781" first="Madi" last="Woodin"] | Elkhorn South | South Dakota [player_tooltip player_id="58775" first="Estella" last="Zatechka"] | Elkhorn South | Missouri Nebraska Elite 17-1’s [player_tooltip player_id="58776" first="Bailey" last="Helzer"] | Oakland-Craig | Arkansas State [player_tooltip player_id="113130" first="Mia" last="Mroczek"] | Elkhorn South | Loyola Maryland [player_tooltip player_id="58772" first="Sydney" last="Raszler"] | Elkhorn | Rockhurst [player_tooltip player_id="58786" first="Kylie" last="Weeks"] | Elkhorn South | Arkansas [player_tooltip player_id="58811" first="Katie" last="Galligan"] | Elkhorn South | Wichita State [player_tooltip player_id="37532" first="Ava" last="Heyne"] | Skutt Catholic | Ohio [player_tooltip player_id="58778" first="Bianca" last="Martinez"] | Omaha Central | Uncommitted Martinez is a fun one to watch.
