Ochelli and her Houston Skyline 17 Black team will get on the court in the 17 USA division. Originally a middle, she moved to the right a couple of years ago and has continued to develop her game since then. Ochelli always had the size and the physical tools to thrive on both sides of the ball playing the position, but has been able to develop technically and mentally. Her offense is very powerful and much more consistent now while her blocking translated extremely well to the right, making of her a big obstacle to pin hitters trying to score on her team.

Playing just the three net rotations, Ochelli has quietly put on a solid performance against Lutheran South, contributing on both sides of the ball at right side for Fort Bend Christian. She was set just 12 times (the least among the five starting hitters), but put seven of those attempts down, some of which were out of system, to end long rallies, reaching a solid 58.3% efficiency rate. Ochelli also got a couple of blocks and put a lot of pressure on opposing outside hitters, who tried to avoid her at the net. She also made an impressive dig at the start of set three and did well with her ball control in general.

Fort Bend Kempner’s main scorer last season, Ochelli has decided to head to TAPPS powerhouse Fort Bend Christian Academy and will add a lot of firepower to an already strong side, which last season came up just one victory short of securing the state title. Ochelli came up as a middle, but played outside hitter in the last high school season and right side at club, meaning she will be ready to contribute wherever her new team needs her. A very physical player, Ochelli has tallied 437 kills in two seasons with Kempner. She’s also a solid blocker, having produced 27 stuffs as a sophomore.

A strong offensive player, Ochelli will certainly score a lot of points for Houston Skyline 16 Black in the 16 USA division this weekend. Very physical and athletic, she first came up as a middle in the last club season with great promise. Because of her incredible offensive potential, Ochelli was moved to outside hitter during the high school season with Fort Bend Kempner. The move helper her develop other areas of her game and opened the door to her transition to the right. Ochelli can hit from anywhere at the net and is really hard to stop because of her length and power.

Another talented middle from the Houston area, Ochelli will be playing with Houston Skyline 16 Black in the 16 USA division. She’s very athletic and consistent and really difficult to stop offensively because of her high contact point. Ochelli is also a very good blocker, who moves well, goes high up at the net and is great at placing her hands in the right spots. She played as an outside hitter for Kempner in the last high school season and developed other areas of her game and is now versatile enough to hit from anywhere on the court.

After playing outside hitter and carrying the offense of her team Kempner during the last high school season, Ochelli had a seamless transition back to her original middle blocker position. Extremely athletic, she’s a force on both sides of the ball in the middle, combining tremendous offensive firepower with a big and technical block. The experience in a different position has clearly made her develop her all-around game as she was clearly more confident with her first touch and more effective when hitting from the right.

An extremely athletic player, Ochelli has been moved from her original middle blocker spot to the pin this season in an attempt to make of her a more central piece in the Cougars’ offense. That has been the case, as Ochelli is fully adapted to the new role on offense, where she can use her reach and firepower to score points. Although she’s the team’s go-to offensive player and is set out-of-system fairly often, Ochelli doesn’t make a lot of mistakes. Also a very good blocker, she has some room for improvement in her ball control.

Playing as an outside hitter, the physical Ochelli was Kempner’s best scoring option throughout the match. It took her a little while to get into a rhythm, but after she did it, she was nearly unstoppable, hitting the ball hard from the left, right and the backcourt. She had two really good shots from the left (one hitting sharp angle hard and the one sending the ball towards the corner) going on during the match, which kept Ball’s defenders guessing all night. Ochelli had some trouble with her ball control at times, but was the best player in her team because of her massive offensive contributions.
