At 6'0, she has good length while performing mechanically well in her approach work. Her pursuit and movement to the set is efficient with good momentum build and balance in the air that allows her to swing with good force and range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["488371"],"_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-6996651684590"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Newland (*pictured) continues to display why she should be considered a high value libero prospect in this class. She performs the details of this role well, which helps her efficiency and impact for her teams. She moves well maintaining balance and quickness both in serve receive and defense, while controlling her platform and angles to create good opportunities for her setter. Competing for [program_tooltip program_id='431573' first='RockCity' last='']'s top 17U team, one that features some high level attackers, she is a critical part of their effort and ability to score through their strengths.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["481207"],"_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-69966516845da"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hamman is one of the biggest rankings risers as her versatility and athleticism is something to note. Watching her defend at the net is a sight as she is dynamic in her move and can elevate and get over fast to fill up space and put big pressure on opposing hitters. On the offensive side, she can leap and hammer. When she has space in front of her she can drop the ball with good pace into the shallow area of the court as she can get on top of the ball with terminal results. At over 1,000 career kills for Chillicothe, Hamman averaged 5.6 k/s on 436 total kills in 2025. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["480858"],"_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-699665168461d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Surpassing 1,000 kills for her varsity career in 2025, Beard produced a career high 492 kills for a huge per set average a 5.7 kills. She was highly effective through her opportunities at a career high .366 efficiency and 46% kill rate. Defensively, she averaged 2.8 b/m for Lakota. Effective through quick middle options, Beard has good vision and arm control to swing towards the space she sees at both edges of the block. She returns to [program_tooltip program_id='431555' first='Mintonette' last='']'s top 17U team this club season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["805463"],"_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-699665168465e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tharp had a massive fall high school season for Oak Hill. She was second overall offensively with 372 total kills for a 4.3 k/s average. She also improved defensively from 2024 with a career best 276 digs. The 6'0 pin and 1st team all-league honoree makes an incredible leap in the rankings given the physicality she brings at both pins and on both sides of the ball. Playing with Elevations top 17U team, they recently finished 42nd overall at NIT.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
