Academy 15E Venom
The top 15s team at Academy has a ton of talent. Reese Blanchard Reese Blanchard 5'10" | S Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory | 2026 State IN (’26, 5-9 S, Brebeuf) runs the show quite well, and should be the next in a long line of Brebeuf setters that can play at the next level. Jaycee Jones Jaycee Jones 5'8" | OH Mt Vernon | 2026 State IN (’26, 5-8 OH, Mount Vernon) has the tools and the talent to be a primary passing outside, and looks to do just that this weekend. Lexi Kedvesh Lexi Kedvesh 5'7" | DS/L Carmel | 2026 State IN (’26, 5-7 DS/L, Carmel) is one of multiple floor defenders for the Venom that anticipate well, receive serve at an above-average skill level and is always around the ball.
Boiler Juniors 162E Black
We’ve spent a lot of time talking about the accomplishments of the 1s squad at Boilers, but not as much with the 2s. Ashlyn Minniear Ashlyn Minniear 5'9" | OH Frontier | 2025 State IN (’25, 5-9 OH, Frontier) is the primary passing outside that plays as steady as she looks. Her ability to find the right shot at the right time, coupled with her passing talent, make her a small school talent worth watching. Abbey Swan Abbey Swan 5'3" | S Clinton Prairie | 2025 State IN (’25, 5-8 OH, Clinton Prairie) is a three-sport stud that can attack from either pin and has athleticism for days. Sara Zarse Sara Zarse 5'9" | MB Tri-County | 2025 State IN (’25, 5-9 MB/RS, Tri-County) is an undersized but springy middle that excels off of two feet and regularly powers through unsuspecting blocks.
Circle City 15 Black
One of the better-constructed rosters in central Indiana for the class of ’26 is the 2s team at Circle. They certainly don’t play like a 2s team, what with all of the size and skill they have. Ella Vandermark Ella Vandermark 6'0" | MB Danville | 2026 State IN (’26, 6-1 MB, Danville) could easily be on a 1s team anywhere else, and is a tennis stud as well. Camille Stark Camille Stark 5'8" | S CHCA | 2026 State OH (’26, 5-8 S, Zionsville) has this offense humming right along, and defends her position at an above-average level. Kate Vrabel Kate Vrabel 5'9" | DS/L Brownsburg | 2026 State IN (’26, 5-8 OH, Brownsburg) is the highest jumper on this squad, and is a primary passing spitfire of an outside. Keep an eye on this one—she’s got star written all over her.
