Below are our 20 finalists for 2019 PrepVolleyball.com National HIGH SCHOOL Freshman of the Year.
Before we reveal the finalists, here’s a little bit about the process: Beginning in mid-November and continuing through this morning, I asked coaches across the country to nominate worthy candidates and to supply statistics and a narrative in support.
The requirements were steep: to be considered, a top freshman had to make a “massive” impact on her varsity high school team in 2019. “Massive” is a subjective term, but at a minimum required that she be a varsity starter and have stats that were among the team’s best. Playing on a team that won a state title, advanced far in the state tournament and/or was nationally ranked was also helpful.
To date, I have received many nominations, from which the 20 VERY talented finalists were selected. Look for those names and others when the Frosh 59 is released, probably sometime in January.
NOTE: there are still dozens of freshmen deserving of recognition that I have yet to hear about. Coaches only should immediately tell us about them at this link, https://prepvolleyball.wufoo.com/forms/pjtr0jw0bt43dm/ for inclusion in our Frosh 59 list.
