Londyn Pope Londyn Pope 6'2" | MB V.R. Eaton | 2027 TX , a Class of 2027 middle blocker from V.R. Eaton High School in Haslet and Dallas Premier Volleyball Club, has committed to the University of Arizona and done so as a player whose physical tools and positional understanding both supported the decision. At 6’2″ she creates a hitting window above the block that opposing defenses have no clean answer for, and she has learned to use that advantage intelligently rather than simply swinging hard and hoping the ball stays in bounds. Her blocking reads are advanced for her class and she challenges hitters with a timing and presence that forces opposing teams to account for her on every play that goes in her direction. The ability to function both as a middle and as an opposite gives her the kind of front row versatility that makes a college staff’s lineup construction significantly easier, and Arizona recruited her understanding that she can fill either role within their system without a drop-off in effectiveness. Please help us congratulate her on earning a spot in our Official Watch List. 

Pope will be in action with Premier 16 Black G in the 16 Open division. She’s a new face with the team this season, coming from Texas Advantage , and has immediately become a centerpiece in their playing system. Pope’s 6’2″ frame makes of her a tough matchup for anyone, but her physicality and explosiveness make it even harder for opposing blockers to get a touch on her swings. She’s also very active with her blocking and is always alert to react to overpasses and tight sets. Pope has moved to Texas about two years ago and continues to see her stock rise in the state.
