Washington Prospects at the USA All-Star Championships

Madison, Wisconsin, is the host city for this year's USA All-Star Championships. The Championship is a USAV-sanctioned event produced by the 40 Regions of USA Volleyball. Regions across the country can elect to send teams to participate. This year, over 50 teams made the trip to compete in the 13U, 15U, and 17U Divisions. Another thirty-seven boys' squads made the trip as well. Notably, the tournament is played under FIVB rules, with a limit of six substitutions per set, and the libero is not permitted to serve. Here are five Washington prospects playing in Madison now.    Moore is an excellent athlete playing middle for Kelso High School and the CEVA All-Stars. CEVA went 1-1 on the first day of pool play; Moore has a powerful arm and is excellent hammering down an overpass or putting away a quick before the block can be set. The 2028 prospect can swing out to the pin and terminate a ball when her team needs to find her a touch; she adjusts to sets and has good vision of the block.     Friedman is a 2028 setter playing for the PSR U17 team in Madison. The University Prep prospect is a leader on the floor who plays with a positive attitude while staying competitive and level-headed. Friedman thinks the game and plays the position with intensity on defense and accurate, soft hands when she sets.     Flory is a skilled OH playing for the PSR U17 International team. The Puget Sound Region All-Stars had a tough first day draw with Florida and the Great Lakes Region teams on the schedule. Flory can get it done defensively; she is athletic and consistently beats the ball. As an undersized pin, she knows how to attack the edges of the block and high hands and will swing away from the pipe with confidence.     Mead is a 5'10" 2028 prospect from Selah High School and is playing with the Evergreen Region All-Stars. The rising Sophomore is long and athletic and has a live arm on the pin. No Limits had her playing six rotations during the club season, and Mead worked hard to improve her overall game. She has excellent length and might not be done growing; there is still room for her to develop and level up her game.     Garcia has an excellent club season for 208 Volleyball and will be a sophomore at Chiawana in the Paco this fall. She is playing in the middle for the Evergreen 15U team that is competing in the 15U National Division. Garcia was effective scoring in the middle on quick tempo sets as ERVA battled against CEVA and SURVA (West Texas/New Mexico). The team dropped both matches 1-3 and will look to get their first win in pool play on day two.
