America's Top 200: #155-141

America’s Top 200 List

#155-141

​

#155 Cynthia Ockerman - Class of 2027 Middle - Club: Legacy - Commit: Clemson

Ockerman defines a TEAM player and an overachiever. She has overcome quite a bit already in her life to get to where she has and won’t be outworked by anyone. She has to be a student of the game, and her reaction time is among the best, which helps her on the block. She sees the court exceptionally well and has a variety of shots to score with. She does all of the little things well and will be a plus in the locker room and team culture-wise. She will need to continue to work on foot speed and her vertical game as she goes to the next level, and she will be the first to tell you that. Ockerman is an EXCELLENT commit for Clemson and what they are building there.

​

#155 Hannah McGinnest - Class of 2027 Outside - Club Long Beach - Commit: UC

Hannah is still uncommitted heading towards the end of her Junior season, and our guess would be that she is waiting for just the right offer, as she has offers out there for her. She is a six-rotation outside that has attended NTDP and plays on two of the more recognizable programs in the country (Mizuno Long Beach and Sierra Canyon). She is an undersized outside, but has the explosion to play at a high level and can terminate the ball with efficiency. The question will simply be how high a program she wants to play at and what kind of offers she will end up receiving in the end.

​

#154 Riley Riggs - Class of 2027 Outside - Club: Dynasty - Commit: South Carolina

Riggs had a dominant club season with Dynasty last Summer and became a big riser in the Class of 2027. Riggs has the arm to make an impact in the SEC.

​

#153 Lucky Fasavalu - Class of 2027 Setter - Club: Long Beach - Commit: Mizzou

Fasavalu is a well-rounded setter with some high-level skills. She has run offenses with some big weapons. Her accuracy is high, and she can pass the ball well. She has also played in many big-time matches in her career.

​

#152 Morgan Williams - Class of 2026 Outside - Club: Metro - Commit: Tennessee

For a long time, Williams was the top prospect on the Metro squad. Still a talented OH with power and efficiency, Morgan will give the Vols a weapon on the outside who can help them from the service line, on the block, and of course on the attack.

​

#151 Olivia Greenwood - Class of 2027 Opposite - Club: WAVE - Commit: Rice

Long and lean Greenwood can hit a line and go cross-court with ease. Her efficiency attacking is her strength, and her block continues to improve. She is one of the most offensive Opps in the class. She will need to work on her explosive game and strength as she heads to Rice, but if that improves ,look for Greenwood’s overall PPV level to take a significant jump again before she hits the Big XII.

​

#150 Leilani Lawrence - Class of 2027 Outside - Club: OTVA - Commit: Old Dominion

Old Dominion is getting a steal in Lawrence. Already touching 126 inches and a block touch of 119 inches the OTVA baller can flat fly. Watch for her to push for year one playing time at ODU because she can do damage immediately on the defensive end. This is the type of athlete that could light up NCAA stat lines in year one.

​

#149 Grace Hengler - Class of 2029 Libero - Club: Madfrog - Commit: UC

Hengler is simply a volleyball player and was born in the gym. Growing up watching her mom coach volleyball, she learned to play everything “the old-fashioned way”, but Libero is her ticket to playing in college, and she is very good at the defense stopper spot. She was recently named to the U17 National Team and will head to training camp in November. She will compete with anyone, as was evident this Summer at Dream Team Camp in Lincoln, where she went blow-for-blow with some of the best attackers in America and definitely opened eyes. Hengler will for sure be one to watch the next few years in the recruiting world.

​

#148 Lexi Martin - Class of 2027 Outside - Club: TAV - Commit: TCU

Martin was a name on everyone’s radar with the ’27 class and ended up staying in state and making the TCU staff very happy. She has all of the tools to end up being right up there with the top names in the class. Height and a well-rounded game that mixes up shots, but can definitely play the power game when given the opportunity. Her excellent passing allows her to play all the way around as well.

​

#147 Halima Watkins - Class of 2028 Outside - Club: NYC Juniors - Commit: UC

Watkins started to make a name for herself this past summer at some of the Big Gym events. She was impressive in her first NTDP invite. Though she didn’t attend any major select camps this past summer, she has impressive TOP Test scores, and her physical skills are all in the mid-9s; she is a true lefty who plays a very physical game.

​

#146 Harper Broyles - Class of 2028 Libero - Club: Alliance - Commit: UC

Broyles has positioned herself as one of the top liberos in the Class of 2028 and probably the best in the Southland. She attended several elite select camps last Summer and has attended NTDP sessions so she is getting noticed and performing very well in those “Big Gym” situations.  

​

#145 Bryah Breaux - Class of 2026 Opposite - Club: Metro - Commit: Kentucky

Breux continues to climb and will continue to do so. She is our poster child for the term “high ceiling” and will be in her stride after she gets to Kentucky. Her height, wing span, and strength all lead to her ending up with a final # much higher than 145 when this class finishes their college careers, so continue to watch Breaux get better and better.

​

#`144 Madi Andrews - Class of 2026 Outside - Club: Athena - Commit: Michigan State

One of the most decorated prep recruits in the country and especially the Western US, Andrews is an all-around outside that can do it all.  

​

#143 Presley Thompson - Class of 2026 Libero - Club: WAVE - Commit: UCLA

One of the best liberos on the West Coast, Thompson has anchored the WAVE defense for years. She is legit, steady, and consistent, and best in the big matches. She has a very good chance to be a year-one player for the Bruins.

​

#142 Jessica Smallwood - Class of 2026 Middle/Opp - Club: KIVA - Commit: Pitt

Smallwood has the chance to be a good one for Pitt, but some questions remain for the Kentucky prospect. Will she be a middle or an opposite? Also, can she finally get healthy and play for a full season, something that has plagued her for the last couple of years and prevented her from being at full strength? If so, she can show the glimpses that made her a very hot prospect during her Soph season for so many schools and a great pick up for Pitt.

​

#141 Rilynn Wingenbach - Class of 2028 Middle - Club: HPSTL - Commit: UC

Wingenbach is part of the 2028 talented middle blocker class. She had a very busy summer with select camps and NTDP. She also earned All-American honors at Nationals this Summer. Her length is a definite strength right now; she will need to work on her 3-step and her block touch to truly move up to elite status before June.
