Breit Nelson | Prep Dig Scout
Adler has played a lot both in the middle and on the right side. She has such a high reach and contact point that she will make a lot of game changing plays. I really love how Adler has developed throughout her prep career.

I really love the versatility of Adler. She is a lefty but she’s had to play a lot of middle over the past few years with teammates

and Rease Axness taking up most of the time on the right pin. What she has done is really make the middle her own and found her strengths there. I love that it has resulted in her being such a force from anywhere on the net. And she can bring the heat from the endline and play some solid defense. Adler has lightning-quick reactions at the net and saves her team points.

Adler has the ability to be an effective swing from the right side pin or the middle. Her blocking can provide ample intimidation as she presses into the opposing attackers air space. This Jacksonville commit’s footwork and ability to finish plays has improved over the past year and given her a number of opportunities at the next level.

Adler has the experience as a middle blocker but her south paw status has moved her to the right side and she is killing it! I am so excited to see this move for her because while she is effective in the middle this gives her a whole new set of opportunities.

Adler is a force in the middle with a strong spike, and she can make plays at the net when needed. She gets excellent speed on her hits, but she also places the ball in tough spots for opponents to return.
Overall, Adler has 125 kills and 25 blocks this season.

Adler is a lefty with size and a great reach on the ball. She tools the block with ease and finds a way to place the ball in the corners. She runs quite a bit out of the middle and sometimes creates some unique angles for opposing defenders to try to figure out. Adler can run a quick tempo ball but she can also hang, and wait for the opposing block to fade before taking her swing.

Adler is a lefty and normally you would expect to see her on the right side which she does play sometimes but she just seems a little more comfortable in the middle. She can speed up her armswing to expose a block that is late or she can slice to either angle. Adler has a long wingspan and can reach just about anything!

Adler is a unique middle being that she is left handed. She has the footwork and adaptability to play as a middle or on the right pin. No matter where Adler is, she is a shut-down blocker.

After watching Adler at the Prep Dig MN Top 250 in December I immediately knew she had to break high into the rankings. She has such a high contact point and an electric lefty swing. Adler is definitely an up-and-comer that you need to keep your eye on. I can’t wait to see Adler live with her MN Select 16-1’s team at the Northern Lights Qualifier, Asics Show Me Qualifier, and USAV Girls Junior National Championships.

Adler is a lefty with a very high contact point and fast arm swing. You will find her swining over most blockers. Adler showed off her athleticism as she made some tough plays against some really strong opposing blockers and attackers. I think this particular event may have been a key stepping stone and confidence boost for Adler going into the club season.
