- Lillian Holden Lillian Holden 6'3" | MB St. Pius X | 2022 State MO | St. Pius KC/Ottawa
Ottawa University is getting a big athletic middle next year and should provide solid blocking and hitting. The 6’3 middle ended her senior year with the Warriors with 107 blocks and 340 kills. Holden will be the tallest member of the Braves and should immediately impact the team.
- Kennedy Lane Kennedy Lane 5'9" | OH St. Pius X | 2022 State MO | St. Pius Festus/William Woods
I’ve watched her for the last three years, and each year I see something new in her game. Last year she was all power, and rightfully so. Not many teams were able to shut her down with her arsenal. The Owls got a good one coming in, and Lane should be a starter from day 1.
- Kennedy Flanner Kennedy Flanner 5'9" | OH Blair Oaks | 2022 State MO | Blair Oaks/William Woods
Another Owls recruit that should compete for instant playing time is a 5’9 outside hitter from Class 3 state champion Blair Oaks. High energy, hard-hitting, and intelligent hitter on the pin give the Owls two solid incoming outsides.
- Sarah Girard Sarah Girard 6'2" | RS Blair Oaks | 2022 State MO |Blair Oaks/Kansas Wesleyan
Here’s one of my favorite players from the state tournament, and it’s a 6’1 middle. Not a flashy player but does so much for her team. She is an excellent blocking middle, plays excellent defense, and has a killer jump float. Feed her the ball, and she will make the defense pay. Great get for Kansas Wesleyan.
