Congratulations to three Tennessee recruits who were named to PrepVolleyball’s annual Senior Aces list of the “best USA-based recruits” in the high school class of 2017. A total of 250 players make the cut every year, with the top 100 ranked. UT’s highest ranked recruit on the list is Keyton Kinley, a libero from Lexington KY, who came in at #100. Also making the list in the un-numbered portion were Olivia Schwamberger, a middle blocker from Cincinnati OH, and Callie Williams, a setter from Waco TX.

The Vols currently have 6 players who were named to the Senior Aces list during their final year of high school on the roster (Raina Hembry, Sedona Hansen, Bridgette Villano, Kelsey Bawcombe, Mackenzie Cooler, and Erica Treiber), only two of whom we’ll lose to graduation by the time these newcomers join the squad.
