Lyla truly came into her own during the latter half of last season, recording an impressive streak of 15 consecutive matches with double-digit kills. A versatile pin hitter, she excels on both sides of the court and has been a reliable asset for Rockwood Thunder. With a remarkable total of 325 kills, she stands out as one of the top returning hitters in the 2028 Class 5.

Just outside the Top 100, Steber is one of the most intriguing near-miss additions. A physical outside with developing shot selection, she has the tools to break into the main group soon. Expect her to rise quickly as she gains more reps against club competition.
