Expert Analysis
Austin Kingsley | Prep Dig Scout
Dynasty 16 Black’s resume speaks for itself. This top-tier team earned a top-ten finish at Triple Crown NIT and nearly reached the Open podium at Florida’s Sunshine Classic. These high-profile accomplishments require some steady hands at the ball control positions, and Kinsella has provided that for 16 Black. However, her positional background extends far beyond her setting prowess. Kinsella has also racked up some impressive serve-receive reps this year and has dropped dimes as a defensive specialist. This evolving repertoire will be fascinating to follow as Dynasty continues its qualifier tour.

The above argument for George being ranked too low also applies to Olathe North’s Kinsella. She is ranked No. 42 overall and is the ninth-ranked setter in the Kansas Class of 2028. She registered 762 assists during her sophomore campaign. This class is filled with talented setters, and until they start receiving college offers, it’s a flip of the coin on where they land in the rankings. Six of the setters ranked ahead of her played on state tournament teams and are athletes I saw play during the last prep season.

Kinsella is a smooth setter ranked No. 46 overall. She is the No. 9-ranked setter in the Kansas Class of 2028. She distributed 780 assists as a freshman for the Eagles in 88 sets played. She is a stat monster who also added 271 digs, 62 kills, 55 aces, and 20 blocks to her freshman season stat line. With the possibility of starting at setter for four seasons, she could make a run at Olathe North’s school record for assists. The bottom line is she will have a ton of experience running an offense by the time she is ready to play college ball.
