Please welcome Bailey Shelvin Bailey Shelvin 6'1" | MB/OH Frisco Lone Star | 2029 State TX to the Prep Dig Texas State Ranking List. She is currently listed as the 11th best overall player in the 2029 grad class. Bailey Shelvin Bailey Shelvin 6'1" | MB/OH Frisco Lone Star | 2029 State TX plays at Lone Star High School and competes for Texas Advantage Volleyball. Her signature route is the slide, and she runs it with a level of precision and speed that is extremely rare for her age group. Defenses are constantly forced to chase her, which opens up opportunities across the entire offense. She has absolutely earned this ranking through her consistent and dominant play out of the middle position. We first evaluated her at a Prep Dig Dallas showcase this past summer and immediately knew she was someone to watch closely. Since then, she has continued to elevate her game every time we have seen her compete. She can easily be described as a shutdown blocker due to her timing, strength, and ability to press over the net and take away space from attackers. Her lateral movement along the net is exceptional and will definitely catch the attention of college coaches. Bailey is a difference maker in every sense of the word, and we are excited to see how far she can go. Please help us congratulate her on earning a spot in our State Ranking List. 

Bailey Shelvin Bailey Shelvin 6'1" | MB/OH Frisco Lone Star | 2029 State TX , a 2029 middle, plays with heavy, powerful hands that make her a force at the net. She closes the block every time, taking away lanes and creating tough reads for hitters. In transition she moves well, getting off the net quickly and making herself available as a consistent option. Shelvin brings a positive presence on the court and does the little things—covering, playing defense, and staying engaged in every rally. She’s a middle who impacts the game on both sides of the ball.

Miss Shelvin is currently an unranked prospect in the 2029 Class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings, but that is only because we have not released them yet.  There is no doubt in my mind that she will be ranked pretty high once I publish them in a few months.  She plays for Lonestar High School and also plays for the Texas Advantage Volleyball club.  We were introduced to this stellar athlete this summer at our freshman showcase and I was super excited to see her registered for this event.  Not only was she placed with the older players on court 1, but she showed that she belongs in the conversation for top middle in the state with her production.  She wowed all of our court coaches, scouts and spectators in attendance.  Time after time, she rose up quickly off of the ground during quick attacks with perfect timing and spacing in order to score for her team.  This young lady has a tremendously dangerous arm and should be taken very seriously by opposing middles every time she is in the front row as she can score at a high clip from every route.  We are proud to have her in our publication and think everyone should give her a follow.  Please help us congratulate her on earning another Top Performer award for this showcase. 

Miss Shelvin is currently an unranked prospect in the 2029 class according to our Texas State Rankings but that is only because we have not released them yet.  If there is one thing I love on a volleyball team, it is a middle who moves with a purpose.  Bailey has great footwork both laterally and during defensive transition to her touch point.  The fact that she is on time to run a quick attack during her third rotation serve receive formation tells me all I need to know about her speed and ability to understand her role in the offense.  At the net, her blocking and overpass skills are elite.  She can definitely score tons of points without getting the set.  When middles can affect the game in more ways than just swinging, this makes them invaluable for any roster.  I am sure that she will showcase these top tier skills against some of the best freshmen in the state at the event.
