2023 Rankings Update: Stock Risers

Photo: Athena VB Isabel PattersonIsabelPatterson5'9" | OHJesuit | 2023StateOR, 5’9", OH, Jesuit High School, Athena Volleyball Academy 11→ 3 Patterson, one of two freshmen to make the Jesuit High School Crusaders varsity squad, helped them secure a first-place finish in the 6A State championship. Patterson flies off the court when attacking and uses her insanely fast arm swing to rack up kills. Though not in the starting line-up this season, with Dowdall (#18 2021 recruit) and Henry (#17 2021 recruit) fulfilling the outside positions for the Crusaders, she has made significant strides in her game during the offseason and has become a force to be reckoned with. Last club season she played for Athena Volleyball Academy’s 15-1 Gold team.   Photo: OSAA Kayleigh CarpenterKayleighCarpenter5'9" | OHSouth Salem | 2023StateOR, 5’9", OH, South Salem High School, North Pacific Juniors 21→ 12 Carpenter had a dominant freshman season for the South Salem High School Saxons, helping them finish fifth in the Mountain Valley Conference. Although only a freshman, that did not stop her from making a huge impact for the Saxons. She saw significant playing primarily playing on the outside but sometimes would play on the right side. She racked up 137 kills and 88 digs on the season. During club season she was a six rotation standout on the outside. She is an athletic and dynamic hitter who does a good job mixing up her attacking location. Last club season she played for North Pacific Juniors on their 15-1 National team.  Photo: Athena VB Ceanna O’LoughlinCeannaO’Loughlin5'10" | RSJesuit | 2023StateOR, 5’10", RS, Jesuit High School, Athena Volleyball Academy  42→ 18 O’Loughlin had a stellar freshman season as one of two freshmen to make the Jesuit High School Crusaders varsity team. At the beginning of the season, she saw a substantial amount of playing time with their starting setter Peyton GriffinPeytonGriffin6'0" | SJesuit | 2021StateOR (#11 2021 recruit) out with an ankle injury. When Griffin made her way back into the starting lineup, O’Loughlin was still able to see some court time but helped her teammates bring energy to the court when on the bench with her enthusiasm. She helped the Crusaders secure a first-place finish in the 6A State tournament. Incredibly athletic and coachable, she has made significant strides to her game in a short amount of time. With a fast arm swing and explosive approach, she is lethal on the right side, but can also play on the left side when needed. This past club season she played for Athena 16-1 National, one of two freshmen to make the team.

As the lone freshman to make the Varsity squad, that did not stop her from seeing court time. With sisters Jackie Phillips, a Cal State San Marcos freshman, and Josie PhillipsJosiePhillips5'8" | STualatin | 2022StateOR (2022) setting, she saw some time setting and hitting on the right side given her height. She has a ton of strength in her hands. A harder skill to learn, she has it naturally, so pushing the ball comes easier to her. A young setter, she is raw and has lots of potential. This past season she was getting into the rhythm of a much faster pace of game and learning to become more vocal as a leader of the court. Last club season she played for Athena Volleyball Academy 16-1 National team.
