The next step is putting all of those tools together on a consistent basis. Paisley is coming off a tremendous club season with Conway Juniors and capped her summer with a National Championship while playing with Arkansas Select. Now the challenge is carrying that same confidence into the high school season as she competes with talented freshman Emma Booy Emma Booy 5'10" | OH/RS Conway | 2030 AR and others for the second outside hitter spot alongside Swindle.

She generates tremendous power that can overwhelm blockers, but what stood out this summer was the growth in her shot selection. She has become much more than just a power hitter. As she continues to trust her arm and make the right reads, the offense will come naturally. Porter, Addi Connell, and Kate Tallent Kate Tallent 5'9" | MB Conway | 2027 AR return as Conway’s most experienced front row players, and all three will be counted on to elevate their play as the Lady Cats chase another 6A Central title and a fourth straight trip to the state finals.

Porter is a physically imposing pin hitter whose length and athleticism allow her to control space along the net. Her extended reach makes her a strong presence both offensively and at the block, where she effectively takes away angles and challenges hitters. Offensively, Porter delivers a heavy, high-contact swing that allows her to power through opposing blocks and create consistent scoring opportunities. Her volleyball IQ has continued to develop, leading to more intentional shot selection and improved efficiency as an attacker. As her understanding of the game continues to grow, Porter is quickly becoming a reliable, high-impact option and is on track to be a major offensive force for Conway.
