Harper Whitworth Harper Whitworth S Mascoutah | 2028 State IL was one who really soared on the radar when I saw her at MEQ. The left handed setter was a game changer where she caused so much stress for the other side of the net.  Blue Steel is not your typical open team coming from a small market/club, but their game in 2026 has spoken volumes.  They have a bid to 16 USA and will be looking to beef up their competition while also getting to play some high level volleyball in front of college coaches.

What a privilege it was to watch Blue Steel out of O’Fallon in the 16 Open Division at MEQ.  This is a small club with a big game, their group of 16s has a lot of 2028s who are ones to watch.  Harper Whitworth Harper Whitworth S Mascoutah | 2028 State IL is a setter with a huge upside to her game.  She is athletic and physical with a big left handed swing.  The other side of the net has to be ready for her to attack whenever she jumps.  She preps for Mascoutah where she teams up with another exciting Class of 2028 prospect in Kinze Reese Kinze Reese OH Mascoutah | 2028 State IL , a lethal outside hitter.  Whitworth will be one to keep tabs on as well as the rest of Blue Steel 16 Black.
