Class 5 – Top Returning 2025 Pins

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='168035' first='Reagan' last='Nelson'] – 6'0" - Pattonville</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Nelson will leave Pattonville with her name all over the record books. She has a strong approach and tons of power. Reagan plays defense like a libero and is a relentless attacker with an array of shots. She currently has 1409 career kills and 1110 digs and is one of the top passers in the Metro area. SEMO has a big-time recruit coming in next season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='153933' first='Jordan' last='Smith'] – 6'4" - Howell Central</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I remember watching Jordan and the Borgia Tournament as a freshman, and I knew she was a D1 player. She was big, strong, with a massive wingspan, and could do everything on the court. Jordan has 1115 career kills, 168 blocks, and 446 digs. Whether she plays on the left or right, she is a scary good hitter. NC State has an opposite coming in that should be able to make an immediate impact.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='153929' first='Maya' last='Witherspoon'] – 6'0" - Lafayette</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It seems like Maya has been at Lafayette forever, or at least that's what her opponents are thinking. Walking on the court as a freshman at powerhouse Lafayette and starting and being one of the best says a lot about her talent. She can play anywhere on the court. With 1026 career kills, 101 blocks, and 651 digs, Vanderbilt has a promising star coming to play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='153930' first='Abigail' last='Mullen'] – 6'3" - Liberty</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Liberty is one of the top teams in the state each season and has been for decades. Abigail will go out as one of the top volleyball players from Liberty's volleyball hotbed. She will take her all-around skills to the University of Southern California. Liberty has her 1198 career kills back for one more year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='170047' first='Danielle' last='Moore'] – 6'3" - Howell</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The lefty opposite was a significant reason the Vikings played in the Class 5 title match last year. Keep an eye out for as Moore returns with unfinished business. A state title! The big bomber on the right pin puts up a massive block and has a deadly arm. Danielle was on fire in the state semis last year with 17 kills on .316% hitting.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
