Although we mostly have our class, if not fully, wrapped up. I thought I'd still compile a thread to showcase our 2026 commits! Volleyball is a funny sport where most girls commit the summer before their junior year. So we already have 5 fantastic commits. We could use tolhis to discuss their current club seasons and upcoming senior years. I'll introduce them below!

Sara Bowcutt

Beautiful to see that within 3 years Jamie was able to put together a star studded veteran team with 10 seniors, but still put together a talented young group of underclassmen! That's how you manage a roster!

And we'll have room to add 4-5 star transfer players!

You said it perfectly!! Roster management!!

Is there such a thing as a rating system for volleyball players using a star rating? Would help me understand how we are doing in recruiting comparatively.

There is on a site called Prep Dig, but you have to pay for it

I was curious about volleyball rankings so I checked the Google machine.

For 2025 for grins (wrong year I know) according to a poster on Volleytalk A&M finished 3rd nationally with VBA.

Oh my!! I wonder if that's taking into account the Serbian player we just signed as well!

Appreciate that! Best of luck to your daughter and her recruitment process! Enjoy it!

Can you track down the 2026 rankings?

Also have Prepdig due to my daughter playing. Prepdig is not a bad place to start, but the rankings seem to be partially dependent on which girls have been to the Prepdig camps. Also, they do not update the commitments very often.

VB Adrenaline seems to be more recruiting focused, but is also a subscription. I think that you can see more of the rankings without paying. No idea how their rankings are.

Here's the top 100. There's 76 more on the list on prep dig.

Wow thanks for the list!! I'm sure we'll see Gabi Rodriguez skyrocket up these rankings after this club season and her time with the USA youth team! Let's hope our other girls make a jump as well

Gabi is currently ranked 33rd overall in Texas and 5th among Texas bros.
