We are extremely excited to welcome these ladies to such a prestigious group. We have written about these athletes before, however we are going to now re-introduce them but now with their much deserved overall State Ranking attached to their name as they were all previously unranked in our system. Congratulate them on social media or in person the next time you see them. Welcome to the 2022 Prep Dig State Ranking list ladies…
Janet deMarrais Janet deMarrais 6'2" | OH Grapevine | 2022 State #82 Nation TX [2022] 6-2 Outside (HS: Grapevine/Club: Texas Advantage/Verbal: Missouri)
Please welcome Janet deMarrais Janet deMarrais 6'2" | OH Grapevine | 2022 State #82 Nation TX to the 2022 Prep Dig State Rankings. We have her listed as the 24th best prospect in the state. She is a big physical outside power hitter who is able to pound the ball hard cross through a seam in the block or go around the block and paint the line with authority. When this young lady gets a kill everyone in the gym hears it. She is a six rotation outside who excels both offensively and also solidifies a great block to shut down opponents. Her long extremities will keep her attacking and blocking at a very high level once she steps foot at Missouri two years from now. Until then we will love covering her and her great TAV teammates as they compete against the best competition across the country. Please congratulate Miss deMarrais on her achievement of being one of the top players in the state of Texas.
Brynn Williams Brynn Williams 5'10" | OH Mansfield | 2022 State #95 Nation TX (2022) 5-11 Outside (HS: Mansfield/Club: Drive Nation/Verbal: Texas Tech)
Please welcome Brynn Williams Brynn Williams 5'10" | OH Mansfield | 2022 State #95 Nation TX to the 2022 Prep Dig State Rankings. We have her listed as the 30th best prospect in the state. We showcased her high school earlier this fall and we wrote the following about her, “Miss Williams can flat out fly on the left pin. She is gifted with natural athleticism that allows her to easily adjust to any set and still hit for power. Her long legs and arms allow her to sky over would-be blockers with ease. She hits at the peak of her jump to get maximum height on contact. I know the coaches at Tech and having sent players to their program myself, I know they are going to love Brynn’s playing ability. She is the type of player that should make an immediate impact on their program. When Mansfield is in trouble out of system, Brynn is their “go-to” on the left pin and she almost always delivers. That is a very good weapon to have on an already explosive team. We will be watching Brynn very closely for the next few years.” We are very happy to have her on such a prestigious list now and she has every tool to continue to move up the rankings. She along with a few of her Mansfield teammates will be back and ready to make a deep run in the playoffs next year as they still have tons of firepower. Grab your popcorn and get ready to watch her fly during the club season.
Kenna Miller Kenna Miller 6'0" | OH Northwest | 2022 State #122 Nation TX [2022] 6-0 Outside (HS: Northwest/Club: Fieldhouse Volleyball/ Verbal: Uncommitted)
Please welcome Kenna Miller Kenna Miller 6'0" | OH Northwest | 2022 State #122 Nation TX to the 2022 Prep Dig State Rankings. We have her listed as the 43rd best prospect in the state. We showcased her as a player of the week during the high school season and we said the following, “This North Texas outside is a true six rotation outside who has the size and power to play at the next level. Her offensive skill-set is already next level as she is able to score from every position on the court both front row and back row with power and finesse. A true six rotation outside hitter should be one who has excellent ball control in serving, serve receive passing, and in digging while in the back row. Miss Miller is blessed to have it all. She is a fantastic player for both her high school and club teams. There is nothing this young lady can’t do on a court. Her jump serve keeps teams off-balance and she provides so much leadership for her school team also. Nothing seems to phase her while she is on the court. Her defensive skills are something that truly stands out. Most six footers have a hard time getting low or are not fast enough to dig hard driven balls. Not Miss Miller. She is the real deal and will be moving up our rankings very quickly as we watch her more closely. Keep your eye on this young lady as she continues to grow as a player. College coaches please take her name down as she can help a lot of programs in a few years. Kenna broke a school record with 34 kills and 23 digs in a five set win this season and that is something we have come to expect with her play. She is a phenom and we are going to follow her career very closely. We also believe that she has every tool to keep climbing up the rankings.
