So many really highly respected athletes all in one place…it was impressive. I have missed the sounds of a full gym this year during our times we were not allowed to play and I am thankful we all had an opportunity to evaluate and enjoy our time in the gym today. Let’s talk about the hitters I saw on court two this morning.
98 – Elizabeth Rowe (2022, OH, Columbus Lakeview High School)
Lilly is a 5’9″ OH from Columbus Lakeview High School who had 3.6 KPS, 43 aces with a 93.4% serve efficiency, 35 total blocks, 4.1 DPS, and 40 assists. That is quite a year for any player. My notes, paraphrased, say that she is a good hitter with straight down, good angles. I also noted that she has a great platform in the back row and is really accurate when she hits. Great player!
90 – Kobie Patten Kobie Patten 5'8" | OH Omaha Duchesne | 2022 State NE (2022, OH, Duchesne)
Kobie is a 5’9″ OH from Duchesne who had 2.7 KPS, 33 aces with an 84.5% serve efficiency, 25 total blocks, 2.2 DPS, and 16 assists. Aside from those really nice stats, Kobie was super consistent at the Prep Dig Top 250. Great on serve/receive, nice sets, and powerful and really effective in the outside position. She is a threat anywhere on the court, very athletic, and smart. A very good combination player.
107 – Mariah Sliva Mariah Sliva 5'9" | MB BDS | 2022 State NE (2022, OH, Bruning-Davenport/Shickley)
This is the second event that I have seen Mariah play in for Prep Dig. She was also at the Prep Dig Summer Bash last July. She was great then and is even better now. Love seeing new skills and development from Mariah. Mariah is a 5’9″ OH from Bruning-Davenport/Shickley who also plays on their basketball team. Last winter they had a runner-up finish in the state championship for Class D2. Love the multisport athletes! She has a great platform in the back and great form when hitting in the front. She is a really smart, athletic player and will get the ball to hit the floor a majority of the time. She is an excellent OH and would be great at the next level!
49 – Cordelia Harbison Cordelia Harbison 5'10" | OH Lexington | 2022 State NE (2022, OH, Lexington High School)
Cordelia is a 5’10” OH from Lexington who had 5.4 KPS, 51 aces, 9 total blocks, and 4.5 DPS. Wow, really unbelievable numbers. My notes say that at the Prep Dig Top 250 she was all over the place, very athletic, a really good all-around player. She is definitely one for the next level, had powerful swings, and an outstandingly high volleyball IQ.
