The vballrecruiter.com team hit the road this past weekend to host our Elite ID Clinic at the home of Infinity Volleyball Academy in Jackson, Mississippi. The rainy weather was hardly a deterrent as players filled the beautiful facility from neighboring states such as Tennessee, Arkansas, Louisiana, Kentucky, Ohio and Florida to get on our radar for possible selection for the forthcoming Red Hat Games in December in Dallas.

In this instance, eight players were invited at the conclusion of the event. Those receiving the invites were:

Quinn Morrissey JR S OTVA 17 Robin
Ella Grace Holloway JR OH MVA 17-1
Taylor Ishmael MB/RS West Florida Wave 16U Simonelli
