<p>We're in the home stretch of our GJNC preview, and the open field in the 15s division is stacked. Here is our Hoosier representative, with five players that are looking to make a difference for their squad.</p>

<p>Having a fantastic year so far, Las Vegas should be the coronation of what might be the most complete 1s team at Circle. It all starts with the first contact, namely <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='399722' first='Taylor' last='Donovan'] ('26, 5-5 DS/L, Plainfield).</strong> A <em>very</em> young rising junior, Taylor plants herself in left back and covers a ton of ground on defense. She also anchors serve receive and could easily pass half the court if you let her. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='514722' first='Marlee' last='Chafin'] ('27, 5-9 S, Southport)</strong> is the lucky recipient of those first contacts. Her ability to get her feet to each and every pass makes the sets that much more hittable for her hitters. She also defends her position well, which is something that you don't often see in setters this young. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='443866' first='Callie' last='Gibson'] ('27, 5-10 OH, Brownsburg)</strong> has already turned the heads of the authors at Volleyball Magazine with her play at the Northeast Qualifier in Philadelphia in April. She hits a heavy ball, is tough behind the baseline, and is probably the most complete volleyball player on this roster. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='481214' first='Marley' last='Vanwanzeele'] ('27, 6-0 MB, Mooresville)</strong> is a two-sport stud with length for days. Aggressive in her swing and athletic, Marley's long arms and legs make net defense look easy. Finally, <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='435867' first='Lila' last='Bruszewski'] ('27, 6-1 MB/Pin, Carmel)</strong> can play anywhere along the front row, but started her volleyball journey in the middle. Easy to coach, Lila is a strong-armed and athletic hybrid of an attacker that learns quickly. Similar to Marley in stature, she uses her length and athleticism to go over blocks and becomes a nightmare for opposing attackers because of her block penetration.</p>
