Smith has developed as a prospect at a consistent rate during the last few years. Most of that development has manifested itself in her being more consistent. The Cedar Falls junior long has brought explosion and power in her attack. Harnessing them into greater efficiency has made her and her teams better. Smith showed that during the prep year, when she registered 180 kills (.204) and 19.0 blocks in 85 sets for one of the state’s better programs. It showed up again during the 2026 ASICS Show Me National Qualifier in mid-April in Kansas City. While it’s easy to get overshadowed by a Power 4 teammate at the pin, Smith’s play provided opponents with little relief. It’s one of the reasons the Six Pack 17s won the Liberty Division at the event, securing a bid to this summer’s USAV National Tournament in Indianapolis. Smith is capable of helping plenty of college programs if he chooses that path. And there’s plenty of upside here that can be developed for even greater results.
