The cabinet won’t be bare at Rock Creek, but the team will take a punch to the gut at graduation. Prather and three other key seniors have played their final matches for the Mustangs. Prather played a key role in the Mustangs’ success, registering 147 kills, 223 digs, and 279 serve receptions during her senior campaign. She is ranked No. 46 overall by Prep Dig and is an uncommitted prospect.

Prather and the Mustangs participated in the MOKAN Tournament this month at Washburn University, but I did not get a chance to see them play in person. She has a nice variety of video clips on her HUDL account. She has a smooth swing and can hammer the ball down the line. I like her jumping ability. She tallied 132 kills last season for Rock Creek, and I expect her workload to increase this fall. Prather is ranked No. 37 overall in the Kansas Class of 2026.

Prather and her Rock Creek teammates will compete on Day Two of the event at Washburn. Prather is ranked No. 37 overall in the Kansas Class of 2026. She recorded 132 kills and 28 blocks last season for the Mustangs. Rock Creek will be fielding two teams on Saturday. The Mustangs No. 1 team will compete in Pool A and open the tournament against Hays III at 9:50 a.m. Rock Creek II will compete in Pool B and will face Hays I at 9:50 a.m. on Court 2.

Prather is ranked No. 37 overall and is a solid pin hitter. She finished her junior season with the Mustangs with a total of 132 kills in 95 sets. She has a nice serve, which accounted for 29 aces last fall. She will be a key factor as Rock Creek looks to return to the state tournament after finishing second in Class 4A last season.
