Please welcome Reese Moriarty Reese Moriarty 6'1" | OH/RS Episcopal | 2028 State TX to the Prep Dig Texas State Rankings. Reese enters the rankings as the No. 49 overall player in the 2028 class according to the Prep Dig Texas State Ranking List. The 6’1” pin from Episcopal High School who competes for Houston Juniors Volleyball Club adds another dynamic athlete to an already loaded 2028 group. Moriarty is a true high flyer who can elevate well above ten feet during her attack approach. That type of vertical explosion immediately grabs the attention of college evaluators. Elevation alone is impressive, but when paired with speed and aggressive intent, it becomes a game changing weapon. What separates Reese even further is her versatility. She is capable of attacking effectively from both pins, which makes her incredibly difficult to scheme against. When utilized on the right side in split or one on one situations, especially during out of system plays, she can overwhelm defenders with pace and angle. Her arm swing is violent in the best way, producing heavy contact that leaves little chance for recovery on the other side of the net. There are moments when her kills feel demoralizing to opponents because of the authority behind them. The energy swing after one of her thunderous attacks is noticeable, as teammates and spectators respond immediately. She has the type of athletic profile that can shift momentum in a matter of seconds. With her size, vertical ability, positional flexibility, and raw power, Reese projects as a lethal offensive option for any system that maximizes her speed and explosiveness. The 2028 rankings continue to deepen, and she is a major reason why.
