St. James Academy
We will start with a team in our On Fire highlight. They collected a couple of wins in the state last week. They then traveled to Texas to compete in a high school showcase featured on ESPN. They were able to collect a win in four sets over Cornerstone. St. James is the winner of sixteen straight. They are On Fire!
Cy Rae Campbell Cy Rae Campbell 5'11" | MB Heritage Christian | 2024 State #45 Nation KS – Heritage Christian
HCA over the last couple of seasons has been one of our favorite stories. Yes, they are a small class school but feature many club players who play at a high level. They should again run through the postseason, but you still have to perform at the end of the day. And Campbell has performed as she earned her 1,000th kill last week.
Sara Allmon Sara Allmon 6'0" | OH Olathe South | 2024 KS – Olathe South
South is 12-12 this season and they don’t update their stats on MaxPreps. We know Allmon is a baller from following her in the club season. Today, we are shouting her out for something away from the court. She was recently named the 2023 Olathe South homecoming queen! That’s Fire!
Kendal Brueggen Kendal Brueggen 5'10" | OH Hesston | 2025 State KS – Hesston
We talked about Brueggen earlier this season with a big start to the season. I’ll always remember her from the Prep 250 Showcase as the player who was killing it but didn’t have a bib number to identify her. She’s easy to identify now as she stayed on fire but got her 1,000 career kill at the Council Grove tournament.
Reagan Howe Reagan Howe 5'11" | MB Oak Ridge | 2025 State MO – Oak Ridge
Oak Ridge had a solid performance from the junior Howe last week with a string of matches that saw her have 12, 16, and 16 kills. The final match saw a stat line of 16 of 20 for an eye-popping .750 hitting percentage. She was in a zone.
Rylee Adams Rylee Adams 5'8" | OH Odessa | 2025 State MO – Odessa
We have a new career-kills record holder in Odessa. Rylee Adams Rylee Adams 5'8" | OH Odessa | 2025 State MO captured her 542nd kill to make history.
Jordan Smith Jordan Smith 6'4" | OH Francis Howell Central | 2025 State #59 Nation MO – Francis Howell Central
The 19-year-old record went down as Jordan Smith Jordan Smith 6'4" | OH Francis Howell Central | 2025 State #59 Nation MO became the new kills queen at Francis Howell Central. She will chase 1,0000 in the coming weeks but the new record now sits at 950.
Sammi Bergjans Sammi Bergjans 5'9" | S Incarnate Word Academy | 2024 State MO – IWA
Bergjans broke a record of her own recently that will be discussed in our milestones feature. Today, I’m highlighting her 35 assists performance in a three-set win last week. The tally is close to a 12-assists per set average.
