Aaria Bruner Aaria Bruner 5'9" | OH/RS Mansfield | 2029 State TX is a dynamic pin with a lively arm and a fearless mindset. She elevates well off the ground and attacks with intensity, especially on the right side where she generates tough angles. Her athleticism pops immediately as she’s fast off the floor, fluid in transition, and aggressive from the service line. As she continues sharpening her ball control and shot selection, Aaria has the potential to develop into a high-impact offensive force. Her competitiveness is evident, and she plays with an edge that sets her apart.

Miss Bruner is currently an unranked prospect in the 2029 Class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings, but that is only because we have not released them yet.  She plays for Mansfield High School and also plays for the Tejas volleyball club.  We were blessed to see this young lady in action this summer during our freshman showcase and were thoroughly impressed with her on court production.  Seeing her in the gym for registration in Dallas for this showcase made me smile because that just shows how hungry she is to prove her worth against the best competition.  I am seeing so much from her mindset that tells me we should all really take her serious as a potential recruit in a few years.  I love athletes like this who have no fear and a desire to compete.  As an athlete, she truly does wow you with both her vertical and aggressive offensive arsenal.  The only think that I walked away from this showcase knowing about her is that we will be putting her against the best players from now on in each subsequent showcase she attends.  Everything about her personality and performance on the court screams, “I am her!” All I know is that I couldn’t agree more.  Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award at this showcase. 

Miss Bruner is currently an unranked prospect in the 2029 class according to our Texas State Rankings but that is only because we have not released them yet.  There are some players who can soar with the birds and Aaria has big wings.  This young lady is blessed to be gifted with an extra levitation gear that others only dream of.  Due to her great vertical and hang time, she has ample time to see holes in the block and defense in order to exploit when attacking.  Her lighting quick arm swing adds some thunderous power to each kill attempt.  If you are not in proper position to play the ball when she makes contact, chances are that you will not make a play on it well.  I am very eager to see how she takes direction from her court coaches and how she competes in person.  I will definitely be reporting on what I see at the showcase.
