At 5’10” and already drawing a top-16 state ranking in the class of 2030, Emmalyne Glasser Emmalyne Glasser 5'10" | RS/OH Xavier College Prep | 2030 State AZ is a right side prospect with the physical profile that programs covet at the opposite position. The frame is there and what evaluators will want to answer in Indianapolis is whether she attacks with range and efficiency from the right pin and how she engages at the net when the tempo of the game pushes her to close on a ball she did not expect. Right sides who can contribute in both the front and back row while staying disciplined in serve receive are the ones who separate themselves early and the showcase will reveal how much of that full-court profile she has already developed.  I am super pumped to watch her in person and will have her matched up against some older competition to see how she handles it.  Stay tuned to the fireworks that will ensue. 

Glasser is a key component of Livewire’s offense. She played right side for part of this weekend, but is also very versatile on the outside as well. Her athleticism and high vertical allow her to adapt well from any position and to any set. When she was hitting, her deep cross swings scored numerous times. She was a leader on the court this weekend and brought great energy for her team.
