Freshman Showcase Players to Watch Vol 2

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It is time to raise your stock in our wonderful series of showcases that are coming to Texas at the end of this month.  We get lots of messages on social media and emails that ask how players can get on our radar or improve their ranking on our website.  The answer is very simple.  Our scouts need to see you in action.  What better way is there than to participate in live drills where our scouts will be in attendance.  Our showcases are second to none since we are the only brand to give coverage before, during and after the event ends.  You don't want to miss out as there will be some of our state's best players already signed up to showcase their skills.  Let's meet a few of the players who will be participating. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["579122"],"_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-687eec9699d23"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Miss Bruner is currently an unranked prospect in the 2029 class according to our Texas State Rankings but that is only because we have not released them yet.  There are some players who can soar with the birds and Aaria has big wings.  This young lady is blessed to be gifted with an extra levitation gear that others only dream of.  Due to her great vertical and hang time, she has ample time to see holes in the block and defense in order to exploit when attacking.  Her lighting quick arm swing adds some thunderous power to each kill attempt.  If you are not in proper position to play the ball when she makes contact, chances are that you will not make a play on it well.  I am very eager to see how she takes direction from her court coaches and how she competes in person.  I will definitely be reporting on what I see at the showcase.   </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["525836"],"_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-687eec9699d7e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Miss Robinson is currently an unranked prospect in the 2029 class according to our Texas State Rankings but that is only because we have not released them yet. Anyone nicknamed “Big Play Pey” will attract some attention to her game and so far from what I see, she can back it up!  It will be very fun to watch her compete against some of the freshmen who are signed up at the showcase.  I will make sure that I am watching for some key technical aspects of each skill set so that I can determine where she falls on the rankings.  What I love so far about her is how she uses outdoor volleyball during her indoor skills.  Because she plays sand, you can see how she can really do it all on the court at such a young age.  This kind of ball control is rarely seen at such a young age, but Pey makes it look very easy.  On the offensive end, her highlights look astounding, but I am even more impressed with her defensive game and cannot wait to report back on what I see in person. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["745483"],"_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-687eec9699dc7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Miss Carr is currently an unranked prospect in the 2029 class according to our Texas State Rankings but that is only because we have not released them yet.  When you first see Mac on the court, her size is intimidating, but her power will make most opponents wish she would be subbed out quick!  I love everything I see so far on her highlights.  Her raw natural power is immense and we love how she uses it with both blocking and attacking.  She plays the game with a high motor and tons of effort at the net and we love it.  I cannot wait to see how she uses her great instincts to battle against everyone at the net during the showcase.  I love the fire that she has and her celebrations are so contagious to her teammates.  We will see if she can bring that fire when she plays with strangers.  Stay tuned to see what we find about her individual play after the showcase. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Do not hesitate to sign up now so that you do not miss out on the opportunity to compete against the best of the best.&nbsp; <strong><u>For the past two years, these showcases have SOLD OUT </u></strong>and we were not able to take walk in participants.&nbsp; In order to make sure that you have a spot, sign up today.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>DISCOUNT CODE:</strong>&nbsp; <strong>DeleonDig2025</strong> in order to get $10 off of the price.&nbsp; Just use the code at checkout on our website.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Dallas Freshman Up July 27^th:  <a href="https://events.prepdig.com/e/1535/register/dallas-freshman-showcase">Click this link for the Registration.</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>This event is specifically for the grad classes of 2026 and 2027 only</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Cost is $140 (130 with the discount code I provided)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Location is [program_tooltip program_id='741653' first='Excel' last='Volleyball Club'] Facility – 4717 Plano Pkwy #110, Carrollton, TX  75010</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Houston Freshman Aug 3^rd:  <a href="https://events.prepdig.com/e/1533/register/houston-freshman-showcase">Click this link for the Registration.</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>This event is specifically for the grad classes of 2026, 2027, &amp; 2028 only</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Cost is $140 (130 with the discount code I provided)</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --> <!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Location is [program_tooltip program_id='462263' first='TAV' last='Houston'] Volleyball Club Facility – 2733 Rayford Road, Spring TX 77386</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>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;&nbsp;Also don't forget to help these kids get more exposure by sharing our stories with your friends.&nbsp; Help us help them by simply reposting on Instagram, X (formerly Twitter) or sharing on Facebook.&nbsp; Thanks for following Prep Dig Family!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
