About Reese
Expert Analysis
Jesse Etter | Prep Dig Scout
Sheppard excels at the libero position for NPJ Forefront, which just finished in the top five at the Triple Crown Invite in Kansas City. Her length and setting skills help her cover the court and deliver the second ball accurately to her attackers from all angles. Her ability to work her platform away from her body and angle a dig to her setter is outstanding; Sheppard deserves a long look from college programs needing a defender who is succeeding against top competition.

From Holley- “Reese has very nice, extremely consistent sets and a nasty serve that has gotten our team out of multiple tough situations. Reese is a new addition to the team this year, and I love playing with her because she is always calm, predictable, and dependable even in tough situations; she is someone you know is always on and ready to play.”

Sheppard was lights out defensively from the setter spot, and incredibly tough from the service line. Operating in a 6-2, the 2025 from Puyallup made terrific decisions and was reading opposing attackers at a high level.

Sheppard is a three year starting setter for a team that wins, wins, wins, a huge measure of a successful setter. The 5’10 junior has great hands and is making the right decisions spreading the ball around to her three excellent seniors, Danielle Brown, Rebecca Wilber and Leilah Lemalu. Puyallup is 14-1 officially per the WIAA, and are on a looong winning streak since a September 5th defeat to Curtis- played without Sheppard. The Vikings are ready to make another big run at the state title this season.

Sheppard continues to develop into a multi-faceted overall player, adding power to her game as an attacker on the right side and deception and decision-making as a setter. She is dumping balls over for kills at the right time, and from off the net to keep the defense guessing. Sheppard is the #10 overall prospect in the class of 2025, her PSVBA 16 Legacy team is a threat to take the top spot this weekend.

Sheppard was at the helm all season for a high-powered Puyallup attack. Her location and repeatable fundamentals stand up to any setter in the class. Excellent defensively, she reads the game well and has the high volleyball IQ needed in a setter. Listed as an S/DS for her club squad, her strong defense may be spotlighted during the upcoming season,
