Bridget Marotz Bridget Marotz 5'9" | OH/MB Winside | 2028 State NE brings acceleration and edge to the pin. Her tempo is quick, and she arrives balanced at takeoff, allowing her to swing aggressively without losing control. Her contact point is high, and her arm speed is explosive through the seam.

Marotz is elevating because she’s adding shot manipulation to her power. She’s wiping hands, using the block, and finishing rallies instead of extending them. That combination of pace and awareness is dangerous. ~Theresa @prepdigdakotas

College Watch: A fast-tempo attacker whose arm speed and competitive edge translate well to higher levels.

Marotz put up colossal numbers in her freshman season with Winside High School, and her influence hasn’t wavered with a new squad this fall. The all-around attacker joined Stanton for the 2025 campaign and has helped catalyze an 18-6 mark for the Mustangs. Like many of the young terminators on this feature, Marotz can operate in several different spots along the net in first-ball situations. Her unique approach on the right side is impossible for opposing blockers to track. However, Marotz also thrives on slow ‘2’ tempo balls in front of the setter. Her diverse route tree has transformed Stanton’s frontcourt this year as the Mustangs gain ground in the Class C2 race.

Winside High School is no stranger to high-volume scorers–even if they’re underclassmen. Marotz carried on this school tradition last fall by putting up four kills per set to lead the Wildcats. Her positional flexibility as an outside hitter and a middle blocker allows Winside to set Marotz from almost anywhere. This hard-hitting freshman has also developed her backcourt skills through ample six-rotation reps, so Marotz is an impact player in any rotation.
