Continue ReadingWatch lists, traditionally, are not “ranked” by PD. We put out a list of kids that we’ve either seen or have made enough noise that we’ve noticed. That being said, here are five outsides that have made enough noise during their high school and club seasons that they cannot be ignored.
Kylie Wilson Kylie Wilson 5'10" | OH Fishers | 2026 State IN , 5-9, Fishers, Munciana
Kylie is an up-and-coming six-rotation passer that has Munciana training and a whip for an arm. She should see more varsity time next fall for Coach Peek, but for now will get the best ball-control training in the state from the folks in Yorktown, Indiana. Agile and athletic, Kylie is a full-time volleyball dork who could play multiple positions at the next level.
Rose Mahin Rose Mahin 5'9" | OH Franklin Community | 2026 State IN , 5-10, Franklin Community, Rev
As a starting outside for an Uber-young Grizzly Cubs squad, Rose has the ability to be a hammer at the next level, since she is already one right now. Long and lean with great jumping ability, Rose can pound away at opposing defenders at any level.
Lily Jones Lily Jones 6'2" | OH Roncalli | 2026 State IN , 6-1, Center Grove, Circle City
If it’s size you want, you can get it from this pin attacker. Lily can make blocks look irrelevant with her jumping ability and reach, while also having the ability to hit any shot in the book from either pin. She could project to being a right side at the next level, but we can keep her options open for now.
MaryKate Scheumann MaryKate Scheumann 5'10" | OH Bellmont | 2026 State IN , 5-9, Bellmont, Team Pineapple
Yet another primary-passing outside, Miss Scheumann is part of a winning tradition for the Braves. Bellmont regularly competes for state championships year-in and year-out, and MaryKate is just one more of a long line of six-rotation outsides that can get the job done both defensively and offensively.
Elle Schara Elle Schara 5'11" | OH Crown Point | 2026 State IN , 5-9, Crown Point, Epic United
As the primary attacker for this 4A squad, Elle is used to seeing high-level volleyball. Her older sister, Kendall, is already making her own impact at Green Bay, appearing in 23 of the team’s 34 matches this past fall. Younger sister Elle averaged nearly four kills per set while being a primary passing outside for the Bulldogs. She’s part of a youth movement at CP that should really make an impact for the next few falls to come.
