In the Class of 2025 they bring in another duo from the same club in Kansas City kids Abigail Mullen and Reese Messer.&nbsp; They have been stars for Dynasty where they have such a great connection with Mullen being a six rotation right side who can score points from anywhere.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Minnesota is building plenty of recruiting momentum with this Class of 2025 and already has a strong start with their Class of 2026.&nbsp; Kelly Kinney will head North from Florida where she has been a key piece to the rise of Tribe volleyball who won the 17 Open division at AAUs. She has also been a standout for the USAV Youth National teams.&nbsp; The Gophers will have [player_tooltip player_id='212727' first='Jordan' last='Taylor'] coming up from Texas where she has such a presence as a 6'5 middle. They also have two of the top players from Minnesota in six rotation lefty right side Carly Gilk and libero McKenna Garr.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Purdue had a solid recruiting class that got a boost in October when the top libero in the Class of 2025, Aniya Warren out of the Chicago area flipped her commit from Indiana to Purdue.&nbsp; Warren was a standout for 1st Alliance and the USA Youth National teams that really raised her stock among all athletes in the Class of 2025.&nbsp; They will also bring in one of the top outsides in the state of Indiana in with Addy Tindall and Isabelle Bardin who is a very dynamic setter from the Washington DC area where she has starred at Metro Volleyball Club.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Texas A&amp;M will bring in four nationally ranked athletes who represent each contact with Addi Applegate at libero, [player_tooltip player_id='179889' first='Kirra' last='Musgrove'] at setter, and attackers [player_tooltip player_id='182110' first='Megan' last='Fitch'] on the outside and [player_tooltip player_id='180163' first='Taryn' last='Morris'] out of the middle.&nbsp; This group brings in a lot of physicality to College Station where they are returning almost their entire roster from this past season.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list {"ordered":true} --> <ol
