Some of the athletes listed may have played multiple positions on the court, but we have chosen them for the positions that we think they excelled at the most. We watched tons of matches this year and covered a lot of athletes in order to determine who was the best of the best. All of the wonderful players made it very difficult to decide both nominees and who eventually won due to their performances. Please help us congratulate these winners of our prestigious All-State Awards.
1st Team All State Selection: Setter
Savannah Skopal Savannah Skopal 6'0" | S Rouse | 2024 State #39 Nation TX [2024] 6-0 Setter (HS: Rouse/Club: Austin Juniors/Verbal: Uncommitted)
Miss Skopal is currently ranked as the 6th best overall player and the top setter in the 2024 Class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings. She plays at Rouse HS and also club for Austin Juniors. We have profiled her numerous times and the last article stated, “She is highly touted by every major publication across the state and country. Every word that is written about her doesn’t even do her justice with how fundamentally sound her technique is. She can thread a needle from any location on the court with speed or height. Her work ethic in the setting position is unmatched and it is paying off dividends greatly. Her hitters know that she will deliver on time and she makes them look great. I love her hands and how easily the ball just comes out of them so smoothly. Volleyball enthusiasts will love to marvel at her technically sound footwork as she is always in the right spot and well balanced at contact. She has had a marvelous junior season and leads all juniors in assists with 1,636. Her numbers don’t stop there as she also has tallied 106 kills, 55 aces, 46 blocks, and 386 digs on the year.” We watched as she danced around the court so beautifully this year. She dazzled every spectator with her brilliance in the setter position. Every young setter should watch Miss Skopal in action in order to see what the end result of their hard work should look like. She is a no brainer to win this award in my opinion. Please help us congratulate her for earning 1st Team All-State for our publication.
1st Team All State Selection: Setter
Sage Thomas [2024] 5-7 Setter (HS: Columbus/Verbal: Uncommitted)
Sage is currently an unranked prospect in the 2024 class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings. She plays at Columbus High School. We profiled her last month and here is a little from the article, “Miss Thomas has the second most assists amongst juniors this year, which sits at 1,455. She also has 339 digs, 41 total blocks, 55 aces and 64 kills. She has an excellent push to the pins when the ball is well on the right side of the court. I love how soft her hands are and how the ball just floats right out of her gifted hands. She always has great posture during the set and this allows her to be a true sniper who always hits her target over and over. Her great ball control has Columbus with an overall record of 45-3 and also 14-0 in district play.” We chose her for the award because of her overall production in the position. She has earned every bit of this honor with hard work and effort on the court. She hardly ever let a ball hit the floor out of the right back zone this year. But what I loved the most was how she moved the ball around to all of her hitters and put them in a perfect position to score. Please help us congratulate her on earning 1st Team All-State for our publication.
