The Future is Here – Houston Skyline 15 Royal

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Who do you need to know in the 15's age group this year?&nbsp; We are going to tell you in this awesome series that highlights each of the teams to watch in this star-studded class.&nbsp; Next up is the team who fought super hard and proved a name for themselves in the Invitational division of the Tour of Texas Stop #1, [program_tooltip program_id='510661' first='Houston' last='Skyline'] 15 Royal.&nbsp; There are some serious studs that college coaches need to see this season and add them to their short list of athletes to watch.&nbsp; We will highlight a few of their players who stood out to us while we watched them compete.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["694200"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6792f3b8dd728"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jada is currently an unranked prospect in the 2028 Class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings, but that is only because I have not released them yet.&nbsp; She plays volleyball at Fulshear High School and plays club for the [program_tooltip program_id='510661' first='Houston' last='Skyline'] volleyball program.&nbsp; There are many words that come to mind to describe her play like athletic, explosive, graceful, dynamic, etc.&nbsp; I could go on and on and on with superlatives from what I saw in person.&nbsp; Although she only stands as listed at five foot nine, this young lady lives above the net all game.&nbsp; Everyone is always amazed at her astounding vertical and hang time when she attacks the ball.&nbsp; The speed at which she explodes off of the ground is next level but seems so effortless.&nbsp; The game seems to come so easy to her and it is a true joy to watch her do her thing.&nbsp; If we were designing a player from scratch it would have all of her tangible and intangible assets.&nbsp; When you watch her footwork on the court, it almost looks like a ghost gliding everywhere.&nbsp; On a team full of high level stars, she shines very bright.&nbsp; The setters on this team move the ball around well to all of the hitters, but in crunch time, they definitely try to find her more often than not.&nbsp; I highly recommend every college coach in America to give her a hard look as she will be a household name very soon.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["731292"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6792f3b8dd787"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kate is currently an unranked prospect in the 2028 Class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings, but that is only because I have not released them yet.&nbsp; She plays volleyball at Grand Oaks High School and plays club for the [program_tooltip program_id='510661' first='Houston' last='Skyline'] volleyball program.&nbsp; This young lady is no stranger to high-level ball as she was on a high school team that just won a state championship and has been playing open level club ball for a few years.&nbsp; This lengthy pin can bring some serious heat when attacking.&nbsp; She has the frame and power that will have college coaches drooling soon.&nbsp; I like how she can turn on the ball in mid-air and throttle down the line or tool the block out of bounds for a quick score.&nbsp; Miss Bull has a cannon that is very difficult to stop once it is unleashed.&nbsp; What makes her a top notch recruit is that she can play all the way around and never come off of the court if need be.&nbsp; This will be huge for her to keep progressing in the back row to help raise her stock as the years go by.&nbsp; We will be watching her very closely as we think she has tons of potential in the sport.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["731168"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6792f3b8dd7cd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Addison is currently an unranked prospect in the 2028 Class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings, but that is only because I have not released them yet.  She plays volleyball at Smithson Valley High School and plays club for the [program_tooltip program_id='510661' first='Houston' last='Skyline'] volleyball program.  Miss Musgrove was very impressive in the two matches I watched her play this past weekend.  A lot of people will fall in love with her height in the setting position, but for me it was her form and technique.  She showed a nice repeatable release with every set no matter the tempo or location.  This tells me that she has been coachable and understands attention to detail.  When you watch her on the court, you see someone who doesn't get rattled during big moments and wants the ball in her hands.  I loved the confidence that she exuded especially against some of the top talent she was facing.  Any coach will also agree that setters need to remain calm and be extensions of their coach on the court.  This is exactly what I saw from Miss Musgrove at the Tour.  Armed with exceptional footwork and hand contact, she will help lead this team to another great season like they had last year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We have written about a few of their other studs in recent articles highlighting specific positions.&nbsp; Players like their amazing libero [player_tooltip player_id='731157' first='Carly' last='Pipes'] who has no weaknesses in her game.&nbsp; She has some defensive help from defensive specialist [player_tooltip player_id='744558' first='Aubree' last='Svoboda'] in the back row.&nbsp; Phenom [player_tooltip player_id='731135' first='Hana' last='Penberthy'] is always locked and loaded as both a setter and an opposite attacker.&nbsp; Middles [player_tooltip player_id='572594' first='Hailey' last='Tinnell'], Taylor Moore and [player_tooltip player_id='708782' first='Leah' last='Moore'] all provide some solid offense and defense for this all star squad.&nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id='765140' first='Brooklyn' last='Warren'] also provided a lot of heat on the right side for this team when I observed them.&nbsp; Together this team is playing very strong and looks to be one of the teams to beat this season in their age group.&nbsp; We expect some great things come qualifier season.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>&nbsp;Stay tuned for more articles on your favorite athletes.&nbsp; If you have anyone you think we should watch out for, please shoot me an email with some info at <a href="mailto:Michael@prepdig.com">Michael@prepdig.com</a>.&nbsp;
