Expert Analysis
Austin Kingsley | Prep Dig Scout
Blankenau is a scoring machine in first-ball situations. She takes slow sets and turns them into floor-denting kills in front of the setter. Quick footwork is another plus of Blankenau’s game, which also helps her close any seams in the block. Nebraska Elite 16-2 is gaining traction after a series of impressive regional outings.

Blankenau’s high-impact 2023 season with Nebraska Elite landed her on the watch list, and she’s back with the club in 2024. She was one of the many Gretna athletes who moved to Gretna East last fall, and the Griffins gave their sophomore middle plenty of starting reps in Year 1. That valuable experience will serve Blankenau well with a Nebraska Elite team that’s looking for major progress at the 16s level.

Nebraska Elite is going to factor heavily in this feature, so let’s get it rolling with Blankenau. This versatile frontcourt attacker can play opposite if needed but has done most of her damage in the middle for 15 Prime. Her length makes her hard to miss in the team’s frontcourt, and 15 Prime knows how to give Blankenau her share of attempts once she rotates in.

Blankenau offers the length and physicality that will keep 15 Prime competitive in the front row. Better yet, this Gretna freshman’s vast experience in track and field translates to some impressive measurables when she plays middle blocker.
