Class 2 2026 Ranked Pin Hitters

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Moving on to the ranked Class 2 players in the 2026 class, this is the first look at 10 ranked pin hitters.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>26. [player_tooltip player_id='232218' first='Rilyn' last='Conard'] – Outside - LeBlond</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>LeBlond has been a final four contender each of the last two years, coming home with a 2nd and 3rd place finish. Rilyn has been a mainstay from day one and finished this season with 409 kills, pushing her career total to 1085. The two-time All-State player will return as the team's leading hitter and one of the top defenders for the Golden Eagles.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>28. [player_tooltip player_id='225325' first='Kate' last='Rubel'] – Outside - St. Vincent</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 6'0 "dual-sport star has been one of the top middles in her first two years at Notre Dame. This year, Kate transferred to St. Vincent and helped guide the team to a Class 2 3rd-place finish. Kate moved to the left pin and finished with 366 kills. Kate will have several options to play at the next level. Whether she picks basketball or volleyball, time will only tell.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>51. [player_tooltip player_id='490128' first='Lizzie' last='Clifton'] – Outside - Adrian</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lizzy has played middle, outside, and some as a setter in her time with the Blackhawks.&nbsp; She has a complete skill set and is move-efficient when hitting the left pin. The All-State player finished the year with 378 kills and 262 digs. Lizzy has all the tools for a next-level player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>53. [player_tooltip player_id='237005' first='Olivia' last='Engeman'] – Outside - Adrian</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Olivia moved from Appleton City to join Adrian this season, and the six-rotation pin is one of the better complete players in Class 2. She finished the season with 376 kills, good for 8th in Class 2 for 2026 players while missing numerous games. Because of her excellent ball control, I can see Olivia playing libero at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>74. [player_tooltip player_id='735242' first='Sofee' last='Garrett'] – Outside - Fair Grove</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A senior dominant team led back-to-back State Titles for Fair Grove, and Sofee was the only underclassman. The 5'10" left pin finished the season with 290 kills and 373 digs. Sofee was instrumental in the team winning back-to-back and will be the only returning starter for next season. Can Sofee led the Eagles to three state titles?</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>77. [player_tooltip player_id='735530' first='Ashlynn' last='Mason'] – Outside - New Covenant</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>She led her team in kills with 421 as an All-Conference and All-District performer. Ashlynn can hit on either pin and play all six rotations. Ashlynn is closing in on the all-time kill leader for New Covenant Academy.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>92. [player_tooltip player_id='735238' first='Sophia' last='Dotson'] – Outside - Cabool</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Sophia had the biggest turnout for a hitter from last season, improving her kill total by 485 kills to finish tops in Class 2 2026 hitters with 529. The All-State attacker plays solid defense, ending the year with 403 kills, good for the&nbsp;top 5 in digs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>147. [player_tooltip player_id='735546' first='Lily' last='Lambeth'] – Outside – Pleasant Hope</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 5'10" All-District player led her team in kills with 353 and 3rd with 344 digs. Lily can hit from either pin and successfully hit out of the middle. She has the height to play at the next level and will refine her skills in the offseason.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>149. [player_tooltip player_id='490137' first='Scarlett' last='Ott'] – Outside – St. Joseph Christian</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A heavy arm on the outside for the Lions, Scarlett possesses some significant power and plays all six rotations. At 5'9", she has the height to hit the next level. The All-District and All-Conference player will be the Lions' top returning attacker next year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>151. [player_tooltip player_id='735534' first='Gloriaha' last='Farmer'] – Outside – Portageville</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gloriaha is becoming one of the top hitters in school history. She has guided her team to two district titles using her power and defensive skills, ending this season with 381 and 343 kills. Gloriaha could follow suit with a former Bulldog, move on to the JUCO ranks, and be effective immediately.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
