Expert Analysis
Jeremy Strain | Prep Dig Scout
Sophia has had a run of bad luck here. First, she’s at a club that added a bunch of very tall, talented middles, then here, she was on my list to get some top performer attention but got squeezed by the total number we could pick. Sophia had the 2nd most power of any player I saw here, and I joked with her is an OH in Middle clothing. She’s shorter than other middles, not clearing 6 feet, while the girls ahead of her at Paramount are all over 6’2, but she does have a very solid vertical which negates that disadvantage. There are a couple flavors of middles you run into out there on the courts, the big, powerful ones that don’t move a lot and can just raise their hands over the net, and the very agile, athletic middles like Sophia, who uses her vertical to surprise hitters and get up to make big solo blocks. Hitting wise, she’s explosive, and when paired with a setter who can put the ball where she likes it, she’s a dangerous weapon. She’s a big part of Paramount ‘s 2nd team, but there are a lot of other clubs not as lucky to be stacked up the middle where she would be a star top team player if she chose to go that route.
