I know it was previously discussed but can’t remember; what positions will be recruited for with this class? How many open scholarships? Three? We should have 2 more open scholarships for this class. With Elena's commit, I think we should try to get another MB, another OH, and possibly a DS/L in that order of priority.

Congrats on keeping Hoecke home, Gophers. She'll be good for you.

The last time we got a MB commit like this was many years ago. The fans and staff should be really happy about this!
The Kinney/Hoecke commits are huge for the future of this program. Can’t wait to see who else we get.

Can’t wait to see who else we get. Yes the Kinney/Hoecke duo will be great. No doubt! I think we haven’t talked enough about our ‘25 MB recruit Jordan Taylor. She may surprise a lot of us when she is on campus.

If anything I can foresee Keegan trying to get a junior transfer setter in ‘25 season to bridge the gap until ‘27 to recruit another setter.

Not sure where to post this... but some interesting news from Orlando.
In 15 Open, MN Select and Northern Lights have made it to the Championship Bracket and have to play each other in the morning. Kairos Alpha (out of Sioux Falls) is also in the same bracket. Pretty awesome that three of the teams in the top 12 are from the North Country region.
Also in 15 Club, SWMNVB (Southwest Minnesota) beat the top seed in the challenge round and is now apparently the top seed. Also Kandi Elite (KEVC) made it through the challenge round.
Seems like there's a lot of good volleyball happening in Minnesota.

Definitely hope NL 15-1’s can repeat their championship from last year their a talented group for sure

Any inklings of who our next possible commit could be?

So, this was posted over on the 2026 Commits thread. It certainly makes me feel better as to where MN stands. As commits were coming in and people were posting, it was easy to get the perception that these other teams had more commits than they actually had. Go Gophers!
Teams with 4 commits: Baylor
Teams with 3 commits: Indiana, Georgia, Texas, UCLA, Wisconsin, LSU
Teams with 2 commits: Penn State, Iowa State, Marquette, Creighton, Ole Miss, Purdue, USC, Louisville

Agreed. However, it would seem that some of these have both.
