Allie is a 2026 playing up a year on Sting 16 Gold. She was explosive and put up a massive block. You would never know she is a grade younger than her teammates. Allie has a lot of power and never misses an opportunity to take a swing on a ball. She moves quickly across the net when she is blocking.
Ella was impactful in numerous ways. Her serve was incredibly competitive and she went on huge serving runs several times throughout the tournament. As a setter she moved the ball around well and was working on connections with her hitters. She used her back row well and kept all of her hitters engaged on the court.

She has a lot of potential and really grabbed my eye at the tournament.
Riley was an energizer every time she stepped on the court. She amped up her team in every way possible. Her serve was lethal and she brought her team back from behind on several occasions. Riley was very effective out of middle back and was clearly a leader and team player throughout the tournament. She is a player to watch in the class of 2026.
Addie had a break out performance this weekend. She was smart, savvy, and aggressive. From the service line she went on huge runs and moved her placement of the ball around. As a setter, she found her hot hitters, got her feet to the ball quickly, and had near textbook perfect form. Addie never missed an opportunity to help her team and earn points.

It is hard to believe that Sari is so young. She plays with the court awareness and maturity of athletes several years older. Sari is crazy athletic and has a huge vertical and consistent contact point on the ball. She was a go-to hitter for Sting United but was solid in all of her fundamentals. Sari hit in the front row and set in the back row.
