Kathryn Mendoza Kathryn Mendoza 6'0" | S/RS Allen Academy | 2028 TX is a 6’0″ setter in the class of 2028 who brings size, skill, and leadership to the court. She runs a smooth and balanced offense, moving the ball efficiently to keep blockers guessing. Her consistent hand placement allows her to be deceptive with her sets and create scoring opportunities for her hitters. Kathryn is also active in defense and can contribute points from the service line with well-placed aces. Her decision-making makes her a key playmaker in any rotation.

Miss Mendoza is currently an unranked prospect in the 2028 class according to our Texas State Rankings.  She attends Allen Academy and also plays volleyball for the Houston Skyline BCS volleyball club.  College coaches love taller setters who can dish the rock and battle at the net.  Kathryn has the frame, power and finesse to play at the next level if she continues down the path that she has set forth.  Throughout the showcase, she solidified herself as a prospect to watch with how she placed her pinpoint accurate sets to all locations.  The ball seems to float out of her hands so smoothly and that is due to her awesome hand contact.  I love how she holds her form well after the release of the ball.  This tells me that she focuses on form and has an attention to detail, which will take her far as a technical setter.  She has definitely done enough to be placed on our official Watch list when I update the rankings soon.  Stay tuned for more from this young lady as she enters her sophomore season ready to make a name for herself.  Please help us congratulate her on earning a Top Performer award at our showcase.
