Often times a sign that you’re seeing a special player in any sport is them leading you to say “wow” when watching execution of their craft. That happens when seeing Blommer compete in volleyball. I’ve witnessed it a lot during the last few years and am noticing an uptick in the amount of times I’ve been amazed in 2026. She was lights out during her team’s run to the USAV National Tournament in the Open Division this past summer in Indianapolis. Blommer has had me shaking my head some more during a few in-person scouts this prep campaign. Her vertical leap is prodigious, allowing her to sky up and get on top of the ball. Blommer seems to add power each time I see her. She’s one of those players consistently defeating defenses that are well-positioned, a sign of a special player.

The No. 1 prospect in Prep Dig Iowa’s 2029 recruiting class, Blommer is a big problem for opponents at the pin. Scouting her through the years, the Iowa City West sophomore continually improves her overall game and is on the trajectory of being a Power 4 recruit. She’d taken a step forward in her development when watching her compete during the club campaign. That was the case again at an in-person scouting opportunity last week. Her outside game is explosive from bounce to hang time to an anvil swing. Blommer also is becoming more efficient through improved read and reaction. The block and back-row play are trending up, too. Blommer will be very busy fielding messages in June 15.

This sophomore has been an outstanding player to watch so far this season. Blommer has been turning heads with her insane vertical and whip-like swing that helps her bury the ball. She also manages to contribute in more ways than one, putting up big blocks and working hard in the back row. It can be stressful at times to play such a big role only as a sophomore, by Blommer has stepped into that role and flourished.
