MH, Mariyah Noel Mariyah Noel 5'10" | MB Bonner Springs | 2023 State KS , 5’10”, Bonner Springs – Noel is a middle hitter to follow in the coming years. She finished with 186 kills, but the eye-popping numbers from her 2020 stats were her 80 blocks. She is a strong player with excellent blocking technique.
OH, Addie Hedrick, 5’9”, Spring Hill – Hedrick is tall and has a big reach. She finished her sophomore season with 143 kills. She is a well-rounded player who could grow into a six-rotation star. The Broncos will be a talented squad in 2021 and Hedrick will be a big part of that team.
MH, Rebecca Snyder, 5’10”, Emporia – Snyder is an impressive athlete who will have two more seasons to impress scouts and coaches. Snyder finished her sophomore season with 122 kills. She also had 38 blocks and will look to help the Spartans improve in 2021.
S, Betsey Goodenow, 5’11”, St. Thomas Aquinas – Goodenow finished her 2020 high school campaign with 111 kills. She can set and hit. St. Thomas Aquinas was packed with talent in 2020 and Goodenow’s playing time should increase in 2021.
MH, Maddie Amekporfor , 6’0”, Andover Central – Amekporfor had a sophomore season that concluded with 103 kills and 29 blocks. She has long arms and great reach. The Jaguar middle hitter will be a player to watch in 2021 and beyond.
