Ava Johnson Ava Johnson 5'7" | OH State MN might not have the height of some of her peers, but she makes up for it with fast footwork, timing, and pure tenacity. She’s a ball-control outside who can extend rallies and create offense from tough spots. Her defensive reads stand out — she anticipates tips, covers her hitters, and never stops moving.

Johnson’s arm swing is efficient and repeatable, which helps her score against bigger blocks. She’s not afraid to mix shots — high hands, sharp angles, or deep-corner placements — making her unpredictable and difficult to scout. Her transition speed allows her to be ready for the next ball faster than most players on the court.

What makes her special is her hustle and coachability. She’s visibly engaged with feedback and implements adjustments right away. Johnson competes with grit and focus — the type of player who raises the level of those around her. ~Theresa @prepdigdakotas

College coaches, if you’re searching for a dominant six-rotation player, Ava needs to be on your radar. She remains uncommitted for now, but that won’t last long. Her exceptional vertical and explosive arm swing made her one of the top standouts of the morning wave. She’s a must-see in person—don’t miss the opportunity to recruit this game-changer!~Theresa @prepdigdakotas

Ava is a powerful outside hitter who consistently impressed with her aggressive approach and intensity. Her line hits were forceful and accurate, making it tough for defenders to keep up. Ava’s relentless energy and strength at the net make her a standout player and a major threat to any team.~Theresa @prepdigdakotas

Johnson is a player that can change the course of a match. She makes really athletic play on the ball and I really wasn’t sure of her position at first because she was doing it all. She has a smaller stature but she packs a huge punch and she showed off several ways of scoring with a wide range of tools.

Johnson is a force to be reckoned with on the outside. She has a heavy arm swing and takes a lot of big rips at the ball. She knows how to find the open court and her patience to wait behind the ball allows for her to explode on top of the ball and take some big swings! It felt like every time I looked over at her court she was contributing to her team in some way. I hope to get the chance to see her play again this upcoming club season,
