Expert Analysis
Jesse Etter | Prep Dig Scout
Volkman is a competitor with a heavy arm swing and terrific range as an attacker. The 2028 prospect from Puyallup was racking up kills from both pins for Dakine at the Matt Hartner; she made life difficult on defenders with her hard-angle swings in particular. She works hard as a defender in the middle back and is an accurate passer, helping Dakine stay in system offensively. Volkman is the #3 outside in the updated rankings.

At 5’10, Volkman made things happen through the competitive aspects of the session as she showed good fundamentals in her approach pattern to get to the ball through good momentum build, big lift, and good control in the air to find space and swing with some big pace. She certainly displayed why she is currently ranked as one of the top pins in this 2028 WA class as she was aggressive and terminal throughout the morning.

Volkman has excellent lift and a strong frame; she is already a physical player, both as a blocker and attacker, from the pins or the middle. Her NPJ Seattle 15 National team is 5-0 in Orlando after two undefeated days in the 15 Elite Division. Volkman is delivering momentum-changing monster blocks and swings for kills that find the deep corners and the back line.
