Willtrace Ngoh completes her incredible recruiting rise and the Trojans add huge piece to '27 class

It's been one great year of volleyball for Willtrace Ngoh of the Houston Area.  She is obviously an athlete, going from gymnastics, basketball, cheer, and just recently volleyball, and she has excelled at all of them.  The personable "Wiggles," as she prefers to go by, makes connections very easily, and when she joined the Houston Juniors family, she was instantly taken in by their families.  The film I watched on her told me how talented she was, the parents and athletes at Houston Juniors I talked to told me how much they all "loved Wiggles".   "Man, that girl we have all just taken her in, and the girls love her so much.  They just love her and she is the one that makes everyone laugh she is so comfortable with everyone, we just want her to go so far."  said a parent of a 15s national parent when I talked to at pre-nationals after I interviewed Wiggles for the first time.   Then another father grabbed me in Dallas after the horrible fire took her family's apartment the night before the team left for the tournament "We heard what you did to help Wiggles and we all really appreciate it, but we want to let you know there is no way her Houston Jrs family is going to let that girl down either we all love her too much.  You have our word."  Pretty strong impact she's made in a short time, and speaks volumes on the character and person that she is.

Well, how about the volleyball player?  RAW and that should be EXCITING to Trojan Nation because he is already athletic and talented with what we love to say is a huge ceiling in college, and she has an incredible drive to improve and perfect.  She wants to be the best at a skill or task.  That has been what has driven her to the top of several other sports already; volleyball just happened to be the next one she picked up.  Her vertical is a thing of beauty and could reach those #s that seem almost made up, same with her block touch.  She is simply athletic, so reaction time is in the top tier, and as she adds reps, all of the mechanics will come.  Simply put, with good coaching, she will only get better.

This is a big W for Coach Keller and his USC staff because trust me, there was competition for Wiggles and from some respected national programs for sure.  Nearly 2/3 of the SEC was offering her.  She took her time.  In the end, it was whatever USC had that she wanted.  Combining her with McKenna McIntosh for the 2027 class gives the Trojans to potential starters that are slightly overlooked by national media outlets.  I do believe that Ngoh will end much higher by the time she is a Senior than she is currently, since she is finally in the USA Volleyball system, etc.  Recruiting-wise I think this is a great sign for USC to go head-to-head with a couple of the schools they went against and come out with this W, and not to mention come out with Wiggles.  The best prize they could ask for.
