As 5'10, she has some length to her frame that allows her to contact the ball high. This benefits her touch and location but also to create some deception to send the ball over on the the second touch. Her pursuit of the ball is timed well to get on balance when in the pocket or to make a more dynamic play with the ball is further off the net. She controls her movements well to be able to sustain good consistency for the big arms around her. Elite VBTC 17 Black will open play as part of Pool 10 in the 17 Open division.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["456668"],"_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-69bb320a93fb8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">There is some really good quality to Estep's setting tools and control of her team's offense. As she often is off the floor to contact the ball, she gets herself to the ball with quickness and efficiency in her footwork that leads to consistency in her hand position every time she makes a move to set. Her contact and release is simple and soft to loft the ball in any direction while she also has athleticism to make tough passes look easy. TSE 17 White will open play in 17 USA as the overall #51 seed.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["435883"],"_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-69bb320a93ffd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kaldor (*pictured) is a two-way athlete with big upside to her game athletically and competitively. As a pin hitter, she has good control of her arm to swing into space or challenge the hands of the block high and aggressively. Her setting tools are simple and effective as well. Her footwork gets her to the ball on balance and squared to her target so she can focus on her location through her force and extension. You can see her and this Milwaukee Juniors team compete in 17 USA.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["503990"],"_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-69bb320a9403b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This [program_tooltip program_id='431555' first='Mintonette' last=''] m.72 squad is a tough out for opponents as they have some high quality skills throughout their rotation. Dircksen is a setter with great competitive experience, which leads to a lot of confidence and good composure in how she guides their offense when it is her opportunity to run the show. Whether pin to pin or finding the heavy arms in the middle, Dircksen can help make her hitters look good. The 17 USA division is where she will compete.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":956403,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Alaina Ratay","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"32561","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Palatine","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"Sky High","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69bb320a940d0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ratay packs a punch in her effort as a setter as she is not afraid to take risks to sling the ball against the flow in either direction towards the pins. Her ability to make a decision and use quick force as part of her extension has the ability to create space for her hitters to swing aggressively when she can guide the ball to their zone. Her athleticism creates a lot of opportunities to use her hands often when the dig or pass presents a challenge. Sky High 17 Black is the #10 overall seed to start the 17 Liberty division.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
