Prep Volleyball Names Magical Pair to the The Soph 79 - The Top High School Sophomores of 2004. This duo of setter-hitter, blocker-digger, lefty-righty are just getting warmed up together on Magic, but PrepVolleyball.com recognizes them as two of the best in there class. The only 2 players on the list of 79 (or 160 with Other Mentions) from New York. Enough from me, here is what they say about them (notice, Steph is still in there stealing the spotlight from Linds):

Alyssa Derrico, 5-9 OH, Byron-Bergen (Bergen, New York) – Considered one of the two best sophomores in the state, Derrico is an all-around talent who has the ability to hit from anywhere and to anywhere on the court. She also is a very strong server, great defender and passer.

Lindsey Schlegel, 5-9 S/RS, Lancaster Central (Lancaster, New York) – Part of a setting/hitting tandem with All-American Stephanie Jansma, it’s no wonder Lancaster won a state title this year. The athletic lefty did it all and was an All Western New York all star for the second consecutive year as well as an all state selection.
