has emerged as one of the most dependable defensive players in the state, consistently anchoring the backcourt with composure and discipline. Her ability to read attackers and anticipate swing angles allows her to position early and control difficult digs that many defenders struggle to handle.
Wolff’s serve-receive is one of the most polished elements of her game. She maintains a strong platform, absorbs pace effectively, and delivers passes that allow setters to run the full offense. Her consistency in that phase of the game is a major asset, particularly for teams that rely on strong serve-receive systems.
In live play, Wolff’s range and pursuit stand out. She tracks tips, adjusts to off-speed shots, and consistently extends rallies through hustle and defensive awareness. Her communication and reliability give her team confidence defensively, making her the type of backcourt player that college programs value for stabilizing serve receive and defensive systems. ~Theresa @prepdigdakotas

is the standout libero in South Dakota’s Class of 2027 and one of the most reliable back-row players in the state. Known for her quickness and anticipation, she has a knack for turning tough swings into clean passes, giving her team the chance to run offense efficiently. Alaina reads the court like a strategist, often positioning herself perfectly to disrupt attacks and keep rallies alive.
During the 2024–25 varsity season, she racked up 275 digs, 26 assists, and 19 service aces, proving she’s more than just a defensive presence—she can swing momentum with her serving and help spark scoring runs. Her speed, awareness, and consistency make her a floor commander, the type of player who lifts everyone around her.
Uncommitted but already a highly sought-after talent, Alaina combines defensive mastery with volleyball intelligence and leadership. Any college program looking for a libero who can anchor the back row while controlling the pace of the game will want to track her closely this season.
