McNicholas | 2027
OH
– NKYVC
A GCL all-league honorable mention selection following the 2023 high school season, Tierney helped McNicholas to the state tournament as a first-year varsity athlete. At 5’11, she uses her physical tools well to contribute on both sides of the ball. She is back for this NKYVC team as a primary threat offensively in the middle as her recent high school experience should benefit her scoring ability and their overall team success over the coming months.

The 5’11 pin was a 1st team all-GCL selection following her offensive effort for Bishop Fenwick over the high school season. She has great ability to score in high volume as she has good arm control and court vision to move the ball around. With the power and pace she can generate, look for her to take the biggest swings for this team when needed.

Hubbard is a one setter prospect we are excited to watch as athletes return to the club scene. She gained great experience helping guide the MND offense through the juggernaut of the GGCL high school season schedule. She has great athleticism and physical tools that benefit her distribution skills as well as her impact at the net as a defender or when her arm is needed. This team has high potential led by Hubbard’s floor leadership.
Addison Knapke – Mintonette
A 2nd team all-league selection in the OCC as a first-year athlete, Knapke earned nearly eight digs per match for Oletangy Berlin. She has the tools to be another Mintonette floor leader from the DS/L position over the course of her club career. Knapke has good read and reaction to the ball coming off the opponent’s arm and can develop good angles that create opportunities for her team’s offense in serve receive and transition.

Padua Franciscan | 2027

– AVC
As a 6’1 middle Acton has the ability to contribute on both sides of the ball that should be a core factor for this team over their club schedule. She has good length and an aggressive arm that combined can beat defenses at the net when she is up on time and with good spacing. Look for her to have a breakout season as the 2027 class begins to grow on the college recruiting radar.
