Expert Analysis
Austin Kingsley | Prep Dig Scout
This is new territory for Markowski. Her first two seasons at Lincoln Pius X–and her club tenure at VCNebraska –revealed her ability to dominate as an attacker. She racked up over 200 kills last season but has embraced a completely different role in 2024. Markwoski is helping run the offense with eight assists per set and one kill per set. This dramatic change has not slowed the junior’s momentum, and Markowski’s versatility makes her a fascinating 2026 prospect.

The Markowski name bears a lot of weight for Lincoln Pius X, and this latest iteration is pretty good, too. The Thunderbolts got an outstanding season out of their sophomore left-side attacker, who compiled over 200 kills and 300 digs. We saw Markowski’s all-around potential when she competed with VCNebraska this spring, and that six-rotation impact is quickly panning out on the prep side. Best of all, Markowski is in the perfect spot to return to the tournament spotlight with Pius X bringing back much of its 2023 lineup.

The Markowski name will evoke plenty of memories of past stars, but Ava is forging her own path into the spotlight. The sophomore left-side hitter slugged through opposing blocks with some wicked heat. Better yet, Markowski’s ball control skills are allowing her to evolve into a six-rotation mainstay for the Thunderbolts. It wouldn’t be the first time a Markowski made a far-reaching impact at Pius.

We’re not afraid to give outside hitters some recognition for their ball control skills. Markowski leads off this feature even as she puts up big numbers in the frontcourt when she gets the opportunity. But her stint in Orlando was especially notable for her backcourt play and steady leadership in the middle-back area. Six-rotation stars are on the rise in Nebraska’s Class of 2026.

Markowski has a knack for making clutch swings. She’s been doing it all year for VCNebraska 15 Elite, and we’d expect the same with Lincoln Pius X this fall. And, as her last name suggests, Markowski is a multi-sport star who will likely rack up accolades in venues other than volleyball.
