2027 Commit Spotlight: Lucky Fasavalu
In this article:
In the world of volleyball recruiting, a commitment post is more than just a social media update. It's a celebration of relentless work, unwavering belief, and a lifelong dream finally within reach. It marks the moment an athlete closes the storybook of childhood aspirations and opens the first chapter of their young adulthood, writing the opening lines of what could become their personal bestseller.
As members of the Class of 2027 begin to make their college decisions public, PrepDig is proud to spotlight these unforgettable milestones.
I will highlight athletes who recently announced their commitment, showcasing their Instagram post and the story behind it. From heartfelt captions to powerful visuals, these moments offer a glimpse into the emotion, gratitude, and pride that come with reaching this stage in the journey.
Whether you're a college coach tracking future talent or a fellow athlete looking for inspiration, this series offers a front-row seat to the stars of 2027 and the personal stories that brought them here.

My parents @jr_fasavalu@luckysmama those that know, KNOW! You two have been the pillars who have shaped and molded me into the player/person I am today. The sacrifices you both have made and continue to make to give me these opportunities, I'll forever be indebted! Thank you!
To my Mizuno Family…
So glad the military moved us back home. I don't think I would've ever discovered the setter in me. Thank you @mattyfuerbs & @joyfuerbringer for believing in me and taking a chance on me. To all my coaches and teammates, i wouldn't be here without you all!!! You already know what is…

Lastly, to my amazing village…
Thank you supporting the little military kid with a dream!! Thank you for your prayers that have carried me through life and this incredible volleyball journey! You all are the backbone that keeps me grounded. You remind me constantly that I am more than enough; that I am loved and supported. You've taught me to stay humble & to enjoy the journey. You've taught me how volleyball will one day end and it's the relationships that matter. You've supported me win or lose. You've celebrated my accomplishments and you've even shared in my tears. Nonetheless, you've loved me through it all. And for that I am grateful! My heart is full. Please understand when they see me in this black and yellow, THEY SEE US! WE DID IT!

's case, greatness has always been within reach. As a member of Mizuno Long Beach 16 Rockstar, Lucky trained and competed alongside some of the most driven, competitive, and talented athletes in the country. Her recent commitment is a testament not just to her presence at 5'8", but to the fierce work ethic, precision, and leadership she developed in an environment where excellence was the standard. In a world that often fixates on measurables, Lucky continues to prove that vision, resilience, and volleyball IQ carry just as much weight, if not more.
This moment doesn't just belong to Lucky. It belongs to every teammate who challenged her, lifted her, and stood beside her on the road to this milestone.
In recognition of the team that surrounded her with greatness, here's a look at the
