Catelijne Van Ham Catelijne Van Ham 6'2" | MB McKinney Boyd | 2028 TX , a Class of 2028 middle blocker from McKinney Boyd High School and Arete Athletics , has already earned recognition from quite a few of our Prep Dig Texas scouts and brings one of the more physically imposing profiles at the position available in her class in the entire state. At 6’2″ she creates a blocking and attacking presence at the net that immediately changes how opposing offenses approach their game plan, and she has the frame and the athleticism to project into a Power Five-caliber college roster without needing to grow into the physical profile. What stands out beyond the height is the footwork and lateral movement she brings to the middle of the system, staying connected and active across multiple blocking opportunities rather than setting up in one spot and waiting for the ball to come to her. Her attacking efficiency reflects a player who has put in technical work on her timing and approach mechanics rather than simply trusting her reach to bail her out on imperfect sets. Catelijne is a 6’2″ ranked prospect in a loaded 2028 class in Texas and programs at every level should already be building a relationship with her. Please help us congratulate her on earning a spot on our Official Watch List.

The Frisco middle stood out for her consistent and strong transitions off the net. She does the little things that make a big impact—closing blocks every time, working hard in transition, and putting herself in position to score. Her effort is often rewarded with kills in transition, where she finds success attacking deep corners with confidence and control.
