Piper Feller Piper Feller 5'6" | OH/DS/L Des Lac | 2028 State ND rounds out the Top 10 as the No. 10 overall prospect and the No. 5 outside hitter in North Dakota’s Class of 2028, and she may be one of the most exciting athletes in this group. First identified at a tournament setting, Piper never left the radar—she made noise all season long and continued to elevate her game with every evaluation. If there’s a definition of a hidden gem, this is it.

Listed at 5’6”, Piper immediately challenges expectations. Her vertical is explosive, allowing her to play well above her size, and her explosion off the floor creates real terminal ability from the pin. What truly stops you mid-rally is her arm speed—it’s fast, compact, and powerful. The ball comes off her hand with pace, and she has the ability to score cleanly even against a formed block. It’s the kind of swing that doesn’t match the measurables on paper.

Beyond the offense, Piper is a true six-rotation outside. She stays involved in serve receive, defends with urgency, and transitions quickly from defense to attack. Her motor never drops, and she competes with confidence every time she steps on the court. College coaches looking for a dynamic outside with bounce, speed, and fearless competitiveness need to get eyes on Piper this season—she’s a matchup problem you don’t want to miss. ~Theresa @prepdigdakotas
