HighSchoolOT is providing a sneak peek of the upcoming volleyball season through its yearly watch list for the six area codes in the state.

The area code 704 encompasses Mecklenburg, Cabarrus, and Union counties in Charlotte, as well as Iredell, Lincoln, Gaston, Stanly, Rowan, and Cleveland. According to our preseason rankings, Myers Park holds the top spot among teams in the 704 area code. They are also ranked number one overall in the state.

This is the essential information about HSOT Watch Lists:

• This year, the number of athletes on each team was not predetermined like in the past.

• The Watch List categorizes athletes by their respective counties and arranges them in alphabetical order.

• Having your name on the HSOT Watch List can impact your chances of receiving future awards, such as HSOT All-State and HSOT Honors.

• The previous year’s all-state team and end-of-season rankings can be found at the end of this article, along with this year’s preseason rankings.

• Occasionally, there are player transfers during the offseason that we may not be aware of. If this applies to any athlete listed below, please inform us at [email protected].
