Irlbeck is one of my favorites to watch in Wisconsin’s Class of 2028. Playing up an age level, she is dynamic and brings speed, versatility, and energy to the court. One of her biggest assets is that she moves efficiently, showcasing not only fluid movements but also excellent court awareness and instincts.

Offensively and defensively, Irlbeck is highly impressive. She delivered lethal attacks repeatedly and also closed numerous blocks to help her team make it to the finals. And, when you think there isn’t anything more she can do to help her team, I even watched her throw in a perfectly timed and well placed setter dump this weekend.

Irlbeck is straight up a stud. I can’t wait to see where she ends up come recruitment time, as she is clearly going places.

I have been following Irlbeck for a while now and each and every time I see her, my jaw drops at some point. Irlbeck is one of those attackers that just “get it”. She transitions quickly, EXPLODES to the pin, and will hammer down big kills. Irlbeck also contributes to her team in other ways. She was solid in serving, provided numerous balls to target on serve receive, and played great middle back defense. She seems to be in her element on the court and it’s crazy fun to watch.

There were a few exceptional hitters at the tournament today and Irlbeck was one of them. Irlbeck is hard to miss as she swings from the pins. She is a lethal combination of speed, power, and a huge vertical that generates numerous points for her team. I have the feeling tho that she is just getting started and we are going to hear her name for a while in the volleyball circuit.
