Most of my scouting time focuses on Iowa student-athletes. I exclusively watch in-state high school ball. In covering clubs programs within the borders, however, there’s opportunity to watch out-of-state performers on those teams. Wilkin reminded how rewarding that can be playing with Select Mizuno 16 Mizuno at the 2026 President’s Day Classic in St. Louis. The athletic Fulton (IL) High stand outs most swinging away from the opposite pin, but her value increases when considering her all-around game, motor and determination. Wilkin can jump out of the gym and generates a ton of power on the attack. A high volleyball IQ combining with explosive athleticism makes Wilkin a prospect of note no matter what state she’s representing.
