She’s already showing signs of being a strong blocker and has a huge upside because of it.

Coco Lewis OH Virginia Jrs 14 Elite (2027): Lewis is a high-IQ outside who was solid all around. She has a bright future and was one of the top outsides. Molly Drake OH Royal Legends 15-1 National Orange (2027): Drake was another outside who stood out with her attacking and scoring. She’s another young player to track and keep tabs on as she continues to develop.

17s Mid-Season All-Stars

Welcome to vballrecruiter.com’s Mid-Season All-Stars! We start with the 17s division. We’ve selected five Mid-Season All-Stars per position. The picks are subjective and based on our observations up until this point in the season. To us, these players are not only standout players and have performed at a high level, their respective teams have also enjoyed a certain level of success with it. It can be challenging at times to choose between such skilled and talented players and unfortunately many more were left off than selected. At the conclusion of the season we’ll be releasing our Club All-Americans along with Honorable Mentions. However, for the Mid-Season All-Star selections there are no honorable mentions, just our picks for All-Stars. Congrats to those named! 17s MID-SEASON ALL-STARS OUTSIDES Skyler Pierce Dynasty 17 Black Cari Spears TAV 17 Black Kirrah Horne Triangle 17 Black Hannah Benjamin A5 17 Jing Emerson Sellman Metro 17 Travel MIDDLES Favor Anyanwu TAV 17 Black Julia Hunt NKYVC 17-1 Tsunami Ayden Ames Drive Nation 17 Red Jaela Auguste Hou Skyline 17 Royal Zoey Burgess Club V 17 Ren Reed RIGHT SIDES Abigail Mullen Dynasty 17 Black Jadyn Livings TAV 17 Black Ryan Hunter Triangle 17 Black Grace Carroll Drive Nation 17 Red Izzy Starck Co Jrs 17 Kevin (S/RS) SETTERS Reese Messer Dynasty 17 Black Kirra Musgrove Hou Skyline 17 Royal (S/RS) Taylor Parks OT 17 Aaron Taylor Yu SG Elite 17 Rosh Charlie Fuerbringer Mizuno Long Beach 17 Rockstar (S/RS) LIBEROS/DSs Alice Volpe HJV 17 Elite Ava Falduto 1st Alliance 17 Gold Gillian Pitts TAV 17 Black McKenna Brand Skyline 17 Royal Ryan McAleer Dynasty 17 Black
