Okay, this is an easy one. Maka’s combination of 322 digs and 388 kills is the most entertaining combination since the Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner! If you get it, you get it! Maka is ranked No. 21 overall by Prep Dig Kansas.

Maka has consistently been ranked in the Top 20 by Prep Dig Kansas. She claimed her Prep Dig Profile early in the process and has registered a ton of playing time the past two seasons for the Roadrunners. She has had back-to-back seasons with both 300-plus kills and digs. She should reach the 1,000-career benchmark in both of those categories during her junior season. She is also a talented basketball player, averaging eight-plus points and seven-plus rebounds for the Chaparral through five games.

We had to include Maka in this discussion of high-volume scorers. Her show-stopping athleticism left a lasting impression at our 2024 KS/MO showcase, but that was just the beginning of Maka’s rise among her 2028 peers. She put up just over 300 kills as a freshman, but has already greatly exceeded that bar in 2025. Her 4.5 kills per set lead the Chaparral tally by a large margin, and Maka’s incredibly high ceiling has us excited for the program’s future.

One team I am going to make an effort to watch is the Chaparral Roadrunners. Maka is ranked No. 3 overall in the Kansas Class of 2028. She posted eye-popping numbers last season, so I want to take advantage of seeing he play in person in Topeka. Chaparral will compete in Pool B and begin its tournament with a 10:30 match against the Hays No. 1 team on Court 2.

Maka is ranked No. 2 overall in the Kansas Class of 2028. She posted impressive numbers for the Roadrunners. During her freshman season, she registered 305 kills and 392 digs. She has a dangerous serve which accounted for 50 aces last fall. I need to check out Chaparral’s schedule next year and see if I can find a match for them to scout. I will need to be a Roadwarrior if I want to see the Roadrunners play.
