About Isla
Expert Analysis
Anthony Jones | Prep Dig Scout
Isla had a great season and that is both for school and club to this point. For school season she played at Basha where she finished top 15 in 6A in digs with 387. The Bears will look for her to continue being that rock for them next season as she heads into her senior year.
When you watch Isla play you see an explosive, athletic libero with excellent range and court coverage. She shows quick-twitch movement and elite first-step acceleration, which allows her to get a ton of touches on the ball. Isla consistently reads hitters well and reacts with confidence (seems like she knows where the ball is going), making difficult defensive plays look routine. She is comfortable defending high-velocity swings and handling tough serves. Anything that is hard driven seems like she gets a clean touch on the ball and puts her team in system.
Isla also is the definition of a ball hog (every coach loves their libero to be this) and will touch a ball almost every single play. She has a very high court IQ and plays with a lot of passion and shows great leadership as a libero. She is someone who is a high-energy competitor who elevated the tempo of the backcourt. She is a clear college-level libero with the tools to impact early when she makes her decision to play at the next level.

Isla is making a name for herself in the 6A conference, currently ranked #10 in digs with 172 on the season. She’s also been a key playmaker, racking up 39 assists and keeping her team in rhythm even when out of system. What truly separates Isla as a libero is her sharp court awareness and strong communication — both vital to her team’s defensive success.
Earlier this month, Isla was instrumental in her team’s 4-set win over Red Mountain, locking down the back row with 17 digs. She’s consistently hit double-digit digs throughout the season, proving she’s not just consistent — she’s clutch.
With performances like these, there’s no doubt Isla will continue to be a defensive force as the season heats up.
