Adison Van Aken Adison Van Aken 5'10" | OH/RS Centennial | 2028 State NV earned MVP at the Nevada StockUp Showcase, August 8, 2026.

Adison swings with power and communicates constantly throughout the match, directing her teammates and keeping the energy up. Her second touches stand out defensively, giving her team clean options even on difficult digs. She reads the defense quickly and places the ball with intention rather than just hitting to open space. She competes hard on every rally and brings good energy that carries through the ups and downs of a match. Her teammates feed off that presence, and she is quick to encourage them when the game gets tight. That mix of skill and leadership makes her a hitter who impacts more than just the box score.
