<p>One word describes the Seaman Vikings' roster headed into the 2025 season: YOUNG!</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Vikings lost a senior class that represented seven key pieces to last season's varsity roster.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Only three players with at least 90 varsity sets played last season will be on this season's squad.</p>

<p>Here is my second “Team Preview” report.</p>

<p>The Vikings aim to return to the state tournament and look to add more hardware to the school's trophy case next to the 2023 Class 5A State Championship.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='514541' first='Harper' last='Hafenstine']</strong>, 5'6”, S, '26</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Hafenstine is ranked No. 150 overall by Prep Dig Kansas. She has verbally committed to play college ball at Metropolitan Community College. She finished second on last year's squad in assists. She recorded 489 assists in 96 sets played as a junior. She also registered 182 digs and 46 kills. The 1,000-career benchmark in assists is in range.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='809476' first='Addison' last='Sibley']</strong>, 5'11”, MB, '26</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Sibley is ranked No. 226 overall and has also verbally committed to Metropolitan Community College. She returns with the most kills from a season ago. She recorded 58 kills in 93 sets. The Vikings lost over 1,200 kills from four players who graduated. Sibley will look to bite off a big chunk of those kill totals.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='474736' first='Kinsley' last='Smith']</strong>, 5'4”, DS/L, '26</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Smith is the final of the three Vikings with significant varsity playing time last season. She racked up 272 serve receptions and 142 kills during her junior campaign. She will compete for time at the libero position and as a defensive specialist.</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='492581' first='Lauren' last='Glasgow']</strong>, 5'9”, OH, '27 (Pictured Above)</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Glasgow is ranked No. 53 overall in the Kansas Class of 2027. She will be leaned on as a primary attacking option as a junior. I saw her play this summer and was impressed with her physicality at the net. In 17 varsity sets last season, she collected 14 kills and one block.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='603881' first='Acey' last='Thompson']</strong>, 5'6”, DS/L, ‘27</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Thompson is ranked No. 133 overall in the Kansas Class of 2027. She is expected to make a run at the starting libero position and be a key factor in Seaman's defense.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='783416' first='Leah' last='Little']</strong>, 5'9”, OH/DS, '29</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Little is currently unranked, but will have eyes watching her this season, especially if she makes the varsity roster as a freshman.</p>
