About Gabi

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I like to try and spread the ball to everyone but with confidence hoping they are able to stay consistent and me as a setter needing to stay consistent is also another thing always needed. If someone on the courts head is down, and the score is 24-23 best option is to always keep them going and stay positive also being energetic since everyone can easily feed off of someone’s energy.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

Don’t give up on the ball. No matter how tired you are keep going. It can be hard to get over mistakes sometimes but it’s best to let it go and keep it in the past. Always keep your head up never give up on your team, the game, nor the ball.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Bakersfield volleyball club, I’ve received 2x most likely to be internet famous. (This one might be sports related) got a small medal for being a good line judge.

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

I’ve definitely developed a lot more of mental skill as well as learning how to play with new teammates very fast, another development I’ve made is leadership on the court and yeah I can get mad at a mistake but I learned to get over it at some point since my teammates will always be counting on me to be there

Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.

Going to nationals my first time not knowing what to really expect then learning each day more and more how different teams play or finding my way around as in using smart plays to trick them

What type of college are you looking for?

A collage close to the beach possibly but mainly known for good coaching, a collage that is looking at everything and every move

Gabi Papion Gabi Papion Gabi Papion 5'7" | S Bakersfield Christian | 2028 CA | 2028 Setter

Papion controlled the flow of the floor with a poised presence that went beyond her years. What stood out most was her relentless pursuit of every second ball — sprinting from the sideline to square her shoulders and still deliver a hittable tempo. She showcased clean hand positioning, a quick release, and the ability to disguise direction, especially when running quick tempo to the pins. Her hustle was constant — never walking, always reloading — and it fueled her offense. Gabi showed the instincts of a setter who understands that rhythm starts with effort and leadership. ~Theresa @prepdigdakotas
