Sammi led the state in assists last year and had the highest output for assists in a match with Lutheran South to help her Red Knights take a 3-2 win. She would dish out 65 assists, six kills, and two blocks in the win.
Kylie Crowe – 2024 – STL Notre Dame
I’ve not found much information on Kylie, but she had a monster match over Duchesne. She would finish with 63 assists and four kills in the 5-set win. I heard from one coach that she is a hidden gem in Saint Louis. Crowe finished last year with 19 games with 30+ assists.
Kaitlyn Diani-O’Day Kaitlyn Diani-O’Day 5'8" | S Lutheran (St. Peters) | 2025 State MO – 2025 – Lutheran St. Charles
Kaitlyn is a smooth operator. She has excellent hands, a high volleyball IQ, a team leader, and an all-around solid volleyball player. The Cougars will always be in the mix come playoffs, with Kaitlyn running the show. In a 5-set win over Northwest, she would finish with 56 assists and six kills.
Brooke Leesmann – 2024 – Borgia
Here’s a player that I watched play against Pacific, where she had a great outing. Leesman took over this match, running a 6-1, and gave her Knights a 3-2 victory. She is short but quick with soft hands; you can tell she’s a coach’s kid.
Brecklyn Koeller Brecklyn Koeller 5'6" | S Hermann | 2024 State MO – 2024 – Hermann
Koeller comes from Class 2 powerhouse Hermann, and I watched her at the final four. I’ve stated before she’s not a flashy player but one that does her job and does it well. In a 3-1 win over Hickman, Koeller would finish with 55 assists and two kills. Brecklyn will be part of a Hermann team looking for another trip to the final four.
