Continue ReadingWe are venturing all around the state to explore a few players we haven’t written about yet on our State Rankings List. These Oklahoma athletes have waited long enough to enjoy some recognition for being such great volleyball players. These young ladies are ready to take the court by storm now that high school volleyball is back on for a full season. They just finished their club seasons and we have some updates on how it went. We couldn’t be happier to give them kudos for their hard work as we announce their placement on the Prep Dig State Rankings List.
Ella Drake Ella Drake 5'11" | OH Regent | 2023 State OK [2023] 5-11 Outside (HS: Regent/Club: Club ONE/Verbal: Uncommitted)
Ella is currently ranked as our 22nd best overall prospect in the 2023 class according to our Prep Dig State Rankings. She is a stud for Regent High School and plays for an awesome club program in Club ONE. She is a great player who has stepped up into a leadership role for her teams and is perfect for it. She is a student of the game and has been putting a lot of work into becoming a better volleyball player with tons of training outside of normal practice. It is because of this, we know that she will become even better than she is currently is now. She has a huge cannon for a right arm and is getting better each time we see her play. We really think she has tons of potential and we believe she can move up the rankings soon. Stay tuned to see where she lands in our next rankings update in a few months. We are excited to have her in the Oklahoma Prep Dig State Rankings. Please congratulate her on achieving the recognition of her hard work.
Jessica Shildt Jessica Shildt 5'3" | DS/L Bishop Kelley | 2023 State OK [2023] 5-2 Libero (HS: Bishop Kelley/Club: Club ONE/Verbal: Uncommitted)
Jessica is currently ranked as our 23rd best overall prospect in the 2023 class according to our Prep Dig State Rankings. She plays for Bishop Kelley High School and also club volleyball for the Club ONE program. Miss Shildt shows great range as she routinely is able to keep a ball in play that is hit well beyond her reach. She is able to push off her outside foot and extend her entire body out to dig the seam attack. Being a smaller player, she does not play like it as she has such a great soft touch on hard driven balls from her opponents. She has been extremely solid for Bishop Kelley in the back row as she has tallied 598 digs, 839 service receptions, and 37 aces in a year and a half on varsity. We are proud to have her in the Rankings and look forward to covering her. Please help us congratulate her on being one of the top players in the State of Oklahoma.
Hailee Alexander Hailee Alexander 5'6" | S Broken Arrow | 2023 State OK [2023] 5-6 Setter/Defensive Specialist (HS: Broken Arrow/Club: Ultimate Performance Volleyball/Verbal: Uncommitted)
Hailee is currently ranked as our 24th best overall prospect in the 2023 class according to our Prep Dig State Rankings. She plays for Broken Arrow High School and also club for UPVBC. Hailee is a versatile player who is able to dig hard driven attacks and also set every location with ease. She is one of the 6-2 setters for a very special UPVBC team that we watched this summer in Vegas for the Girls Junior Nationals Championships. She played extremely well and is getting better each time that she steps on the court. Hailee is very athletic and super fast all around the court in both positions. We are excited to have her in our Prep Dig Family and look forward to watching her junior season. Please help us congratulate her on being named one of the best players in her age group.
