Addy Tindall Addy Tindall 6'3" | OH Homestead | 2025 State #20 Nation IN , 6-3 OH, Homestead, Team Pineapple , Purdue commit
At this time last year, Addy was a big arm with a solid work ethic that was getting an opportunity to train on the NTDP. Fast-forward to now, and she’s a big, strong, Big-Ten-level outside that single-handedly carried her club team to massive success in her open-level schedule. Addy can do anything you ask her to, but she does it at the RPI Top 20 level. I am massively impressed with our new #1 prospect for the state of Indiana, as she’s come a long way in such a short amount of time.
Lexi Gin Lexi Gin 5'6" | DS/L Brebeuf | 2025 State #71 Nation IN , 5-6 DS/L, Brebeuf, Munciana, Penn State commit
You don’t just “commit” to Penn State. There are kids from coast to coast that want to play for the Nittany Lions. But few—VERY few—have the ability to be offered by them. Add to this fact that DS’s are usually the last to receive offers, and you can then deduce how special Lexi is to receive such an offer. In two years, she’s gone from cute kid who can pass and is a gym rat to Penn State commit. Imagine how much the NEXT two years bring to Miss Gin, and Penn State.
Lindsey Mangelson Lindsey Mangelson 6'2" | OH Hamilton Southeastern | 2025 State IN , 6-2 OH, Hamilton Southeastern, Munciana Indy
The first on this list to not receive an offer yet, it shouldn’t be long now before Lindsey receives one. Not long ago, I didn’t think Miss Mangelson was capable of putting in the work to be better than just a big kid with a big arm. I am so very thankful that I am wrong. For example, in the state title match last fall, she had more kills than teammate Lauren Harden Lauren Harden 6'3" | OH Hamilton Southeastern | 2024 State #36 Nation IN , who is Florida bound. How’s that for someone who’s ready for the big stage?
Lillyanna Joseph Lillyanna Joseph 5'2" | DS/L Franklin Central | 2025 State IN , 5-2 DS/L, Franklin Central, Team Indiana
I don’t normally talk about defensive specialists until club season of their junior years, so hear me out. To be able to go to school at a middling high school and get exceptional club training enough in one year to catch my attention as a passer, you’re doing something right. Miss Joseph is a left-back queen who stays on her feet longer than most and makes the most of her small stature. I have no idea if she’s received offers as of yet, but with a little more exposure, those offers should be coming in, and soon.
Haiden Means Haiden Means 5'9" | S Scottsburg | 2025 State IN , 5-9 S, Scottsburg, Union
A highly defensive and accurate setter, Haiden is a southern Indiana prospect that is fully capable of running her own offense. She has a high volleyball IQ, so she fits right in with Union’s philosophy. She also plays an open-level schedule every year, improving on what is already a college-level skill set. I don’t like admitting it, but I like being wrong—Miss Means was SORELY underrated by yours truly. Here’s to hoping that I can be even MORE wrong in the coming two years of her career.
