She can play both right and left side. At 6’1″ with the power she shows in her attacks she would be wasted as a libero. While she hits from both pins she appears better utilized on the left side where she can also provide offense in the back row. Her approach jump hits 9’6″.

While at Woodbridge her passing showed a bit of inconsistency, but that is true for many players at this age. She recently expressed an interest in beach this summer. That will certainly improve the passing game, though the passing for beach tends to encourage a bit of a lower arc than the indoor game.

This weekend Paramount earned an Open Bid in the Show Me Qualifier. Elliot moves from # 7 to # 5 in the class of 2029 ranking.

Paramount ranks number two regionally while also ranking at number 20 nationally. They had a very good showing at Triple Crown finishing a respectable 37th place. This would put them just short of the power pool for next year. Elliot is their big bomber from the left side who scores the majority of points for Paramount, whether she hits from the back row or front.

She gets excellent arm extension on her hits leading to some good velocity. If she can get some improvement on her approach jump of 9’6″ she could reach the next level. When compared to the Metro players and even a couple of her own teammates who are about equal in height they can reach 10 feet or more.

Last year she added sand volleyball to her athletic pursuits, which also include lacrosse and basketball. I found that my beach play helped with my indoor play, especially when it came to my jump and serve receive.

Another 6’1″ power source from the left side. As a frosh she was the top hitter for Woodbridge in their surprise season battling for a playoff spot. She led the team in kills and hitting percentage. For Paramount 15 she is their big offensive threat.

She lacks the approach jump of Ava, but she is a year younger. She plays six rotations because of her ability to be an offensive force from the back row. Her power and consistency have seemed to improve from her high school season to club.

She currently ranks number 7 in our class of 2029.

Elliot still has a tinge of rawness in her game. When competing against older players in an event like this struggles will occur. However, her potential is limitless. She earned first team honors in the Cardinal District, one of three frosh to make the first team. Another top performer, her teammate at Woodbridge Braylin Coacher Braylin Coacher 5'9" | S Woodbridge | 2029 State VA also made first team.

Elliot has an approach jump that reaches 9’6″. She also gets good arm extension on her swings. That creates tough blocking assignments for opponents. Her back row play could still see some improvement, especially in the consistency of her passing, but that should come with more experience.

Woodbridge fell short of advancing to states, losing to Mountain View in the first round of the Regionals. Now the club season starts with a very talented Paramount 15 team that has loaded up this year. Elliot should thrive with the talent on this team, especially with her Woodbridge teammate Braylin and another top performer at our Exposure tour Kayla Chang Kayla Chang 5'7" | S/RS Briar Woods | 2029 State VA setting her.

Elliot ranked in our top ten for the class of 2029. Once the season began she earned a spot on the Woodbridge varsity team. She led her team in kills resulting in her selection to the first team in the Cardinal District. She was one of three frosh who made the first team, including her setter Braylin Coacher Braylin Coacher 5'9" | S Woodbridge | 2029 State VA .

In the games I watched she did not play any back row. If she can improve the back row portion of her game this would enhance her offensive potential.

It appears that Elliot will return to Paramount this year. The team appears stacked with five players on their roster named on this list.
