Morgan Manthey Morgan Manthey 5'4" | DS/L/OH O’Gorman | 2029 State SD is one of the most exciting defensive players in the state, and while she rounds out our Top 5 overall in South Dakota, she is undisputedly the No. 1 DS/L in the Class of 2029—and the reason is clear. Morgan controls the back row like few players her age, reading the game with precision and reacting with split-second timing. Her anticipation allows her to cover massive court space, dig hard-driven attacks, and keep her team in system when others would falter.

What separates Morgan is her combination of athleticism and volleyball IQ. She positions herself perfectly, angles her platform for maximum efficiency, and transitions quickly to offensive opportunities when the pass allows. Beyond technique, her energy and intensity elevate everyone around her—she communicates constantly, rallies teammates, and plays with the confidence of someone far beyond her years. College coaches should be watching closely: Morgan Manthey Morgan Manthey 5'4" | DS/L/OH O’Gorman | 2029 State SD isn’t just a defensive specialist—she’s a game-changer at the DS/L position and a foundational piece any program would want on their floor. ~Theresa @prepdigdakotas
