We are proud to announce some news from the recruiting front. There are three more players who have just committed to college volleyball programs recently and we would like to share the news. These young ladies have been hard at work during the high school volleyball season and have been also hard at work on the recruiting scene getting offers from schools and have made their decisions. Help us in congratulating them on the amazing news.
Samantha Wunsch Samantha Wunsch 6'1" | RS Vandergrift | 2022 State TX [2022] 6-1 Right Side (HS: Vandergrift/Club: Roots/Verbal: Texas State)
Samantha has moved up the rankings from the 49th to now the 32nd best prospect in our State Rankings for the 2022 class. We wrote a highlight article on her last May and here is a little from the article, “She is part of the famed ten foot club as a sophomore and that is something in itself. This means that her approach touch is at or over ten feet in height. This tall left handed setter/attacker is a prototypical opposite side player. She is a very active blocker who stays with her hitter very well in her zone. She is always watching the other side and tries to anticipate where the set will go. I really like her transition footwork as she is pretty fast for her size and is always ready to attack. She is able to hit both line and angle very well and scores at a high rate. She is definitely someone to take note of if you need a lengthy right side player. Her blocking at the net is superb as she really uses her core to make sure that her upper body seals the net well.” We are extremely proud to announce that she has just committed to play volleyball at the next level. She won’t have to travel very far as she has chosen to stay close to home and play at Texas State University. They are getting a great one in Sam. This past year on Varsity at Vandergrift she helped them to a 14-6 overall record and an 11-3 district record. Last season, the lengthy right side had 201 kills with a hitting percentage of .279 and added 54 blocks and 14 digs. We are very happy for her and will be watching her senior season as she looks to build on last season’s success to get ready to play college ball in a few years. Please congratulate her on achieving her dream of playing at the next level.
Dailyn Mann [2021] 5-9 Outside (HS: Steele/Club: SA Magic/ Verbal: Our Lady of the Lake University)
Miss Mann is currently unranked in the 2021 class according to our State Rankings. She plays for Steele High School and club for San Antonio Magic. We are pleased to announce that she recently committed to playing volleyball at Our Lady of the Lake University in San Antonio. She is a very skilled and powerful hitter who has all of the tools to hit at any position. Before she played at Steele HS, she played for two years at Cornerstone Christian where she was able to accumulate 196 kills with a hitting percentage of .389. She was also able to have 73 blocks, and 13 aces in those two season at CCS HS. Dailyn shows great footwork as she patrols the net in blocking and also in transition to offense. She drives very hard toward the ball and unleashes tons of power on every attack. We love how active she is on every play as she has a motor that doesn’t stop. She is a wonderful grab for OLLU as she will ramp up their offensive firepower the moment she steps on campus next season. Please congratulate her on achieving her dream of playing at the next level.
Avery Smith [2021] 5-8 Libero (HS: Summer Creek/Club: Houston Stellar/Verbal: Concordia University)
Miss Smith is currently unranked in the 2021 class according to our State Rankings. She plays for Summer Creek High School and club for Houston Stellar. We are pleased to announce that she recently committed to playing volleyball at Concordia University. She is a wonderful defensive specialist/libero from the South Houston area. She has exceptional ball control skills with a solid platform that she keeps well outside of her body during serve receive. This helps her when it comes to creating great angles to deliver in-system passes to her setter. We love her defensive tenacity in regards to sprawling out for errant deflections and picking up tips from her opponents. We think she will definitely add to Concordia’s passing scheme when she arrives on campus this coming fall season. Please help us congratulate her on achieving her dreams of playing sports at the next level.
