Continue ReadingPrepDigCa’s Instagram shines a spotlight on our ‘Prospects to Watch,’ providing invaluable social exposure to athletes aspiring to play at the collegiate level. Our featured prospects attract attention and ‘likes’ from a diverse array of colleges, ranging from D1, D2, D3, NAIA, and JUCO. While highlight clips are informative, they can miss the essence of a player’s personality and character. At PrepDig, we take a proactive approach, encouraging our athletes to actively participate in their recruitment exposure within our articles.
When a player earns the title of ‘Prospect to Watch,’ we reach out, extending an invitation to share their unique voice and perspective. We firmly believe that this transcends mere highlights, offering colleges a deeper understanding of the athlete as a whole. This article also offers players, parents, and coaches a window into the character of our prospects. It’s with great pleasure that I present to you the voices of some of our standout Prospects to Watch.
I am a passionate and dedicated individual with a love for competitive volleyball.
I live by the quote, “The moment you give up is the moment you let someone else win,” by Kobe Bryant. This quote serves as a constant reminder for me to persevere and never back down from challenges.
I am currently in the 8th grade, I stand at 5’11” and maintain a GPA of 4.0. As a hitter and six-rotation player, I possess a unique skill set that sets me apart on the court. My top spin serve is a force to be reckoned with and often leads to success for my team.
I am proud of my performance in the first three tournaments of the season. With 29 aces, 160 kills, 84 digs, and 8 blocks, I consistently contribute to my team’s success. These statistics showcase my versatility and ability to excel in multiple aspects of the game.
I have been playing for Forza1 North for six years, starting in 3rd grade. During the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, I took up beach volleyball and have found success helping with my indoor game.
My faith also plays a significant role in my life. My favorite Bible verse, Joshua 1:9, encourages me to be strong and courageous, knowing that the Lord is always with me. This verse gives me the confidence to face any obstacles that come my way.
Looking ahead, I have ambitious goals for my future. I plan to attend Ontario Christian for high school and aim to graduate with honors. My ultimate dream is to play volleyball at a Division 1 school and earn a degree in interior design. While I currently reside in California, my aspiration is to attend the University of Florida and proudly represent the Gators.
My schedule is filled with games and tournaments that will further show my skill and determination. Take a look below at my upcoming events.
Far Western Qualifier Reno April 26th to 28th Open division
Regional bid tournament May 4th and 5th
SCVA championship May 25th and 26th

My name is Marli Richardson. I was born on February 21, 2010 and I am a 14 year old freshman in high school. I was raised in Playa del Rey, California and currently live in Tarzana, California. I first started playing volleyball competitively at the beginning of my eighth grade year.
My goal is to play collegiate volleyball at a Division 1 or Division 2 University. I currently play for Actyve Volleyball Club and for Campbell Hall High School in Los Angeles. I am currently on both the indoor and beach volleyball teams.
In college, I plan to be a pin hitter and currently play the opposite position. Before playing volleyball, I played AAU basketball. I love having played basketball first. It made me more athletic, aggressive, and quick on my feet.
Other than my schoolwork, I spend the majority of my time playing volleyball. I truly enjoy playing with my teammates and learning new skills to improve my game.
April 14, I will be playing in the SCVA Girls 15U Event #4

Hey! I’m Jaslene (Jas) Massey I started playing in 8th grade after finishing up my figure skating career and fell in love with volleyball ever since. My mom played at UCI, made it into the hall of fame, as an outside and ran track so she’s my main inspiration for playing volleyball and doing track. I seek to play in college continuing my volleyball career as an outside/opposite hitter, although as of now I am a middle, and possibly run track in college as well. I’m a part of the 2026 graduating class at Aliso Niguel High school in California & I’m enrolled in rigorous courses to challenge myself and to get the best education possible. I can’t wait to see where volleyball takes me in life but I know for a fact it’ll take me to Salt Lake City Showdown in April & SCVA Championships in June, come watch!! I can’t wait to grow and compete with 16-Katie at Tstreet volleyball club and beyond!

My name is Madison “Madi” Mullins, I am a dynamic 5’3” 2026 libero that dominates on the court. I am currently a sophomore at Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory in San Francisco, CA. During my high school season, I played libero where I played a major role in helping my team to a 19-6 record. My commitment to volleyball started at a young age and continues today. I am also showing my skills on my club team, the SF Tremors 16-1s “Palkons”, where we are currently ranked #8 in NCVA. I play with the “go” mentality; I will chase any ball down and I am able to get a playable touch. I excel at tracking the ball, by reading where the hitter and server is aiming. I play with a mindset to push myself, and with determination to win. In addition, in the role as a libero to successfully run my backrow and guide my hitters to find open seams, it is key for me, both on and off of the court, to motivate my team mates and communicate during every second. As we enter the middle of club season, I want to continue to improve as a player and teammate, to bounce back after hard fought games. I display my commitment as a player by practicing and working out 6 days per week. On the court I am a leader, team player, coachable, confident and a determined player. I am very excited for the rest of the club season, as it is important to me to continue to improve my skills! Looking forward, I hope to play at the collegiate level, and to excel in the next level at a college with much school spirit. I attended the DIII Collegiate Camp at Encore Volleyball Club and had a very thrilling experience meeting all the coaches. I plan on attending more collegiate camps in the future. In addition, social media has given me more exposure than I could have ever imagined. The positive response has helped me realize that it’s possible to play at the next level. I look forward to the future ahead and will continue to play with a determined mindset.
