^^^…I think Simpson has a 120” jump reach..which means she touches 10”.
120” vertical would be some kind of world record…LOL
Simpson will be a jr this year so she will have two years to improve her vertical before she gets here. Could touch 10-3 by 2023. Caylen Alexander currently has a 122” jump reach so she has two inches and one year on Destiny.

Been going to Wahine volleyball matches since the SSC opened and last year was kinda rough with no volleyball. Would like nothing better than to see it live. If not, I’m OK with tv but I think the ladies deserve some fans to cheer them on. |

Alright, so you picked one up from my backyard. Excellent work. Seems like a great recruit! I know rankings aren't everything but she was a top 50 recruit (#41) in 2020 per prepvolleyball, has USAV experience, and earned MVP in an Under Armour competition alongside other top recruits. She also has a 120" vertical Correct me if I'm wrong but Papillion La Vista, Papillion La Vista South, Elkhorn South, and Skutt are some of the better teams in Nebraska yes? I found that she got 28 kills vs PLV, 24 kills vs PLVS, 14 kills vs ES, and only 4 kills vs Skutt. Hopefully she gets more exposure to top competition like that 2020 Skutt team. Westside is in Nebraska’s Class A (highest population bracket), so the competition will be good. Someone sent me the schedule for the opening weekend tournament that Westside will be at, and it looks like a great test for this team on day one. |

Hawaii’s Riley Wagoner hopes for return to Ohio with Rainbow Wahine volleyball teamBy Jason Kaneshiro ANDREW LEE / SPECIAL TO THE STAR-ADVERTISER / 2019
Hawaii outside hitter Riley Wagoner played in 23 matches with 14 starts as a freshman in 2019.Thoughts of going home drive Riley Wagoner through the rigors of two-a-day practices with the Hawaii women’s volleyball team. As the Rainbow Wahine continue to prepare for the Aug. 27 season opener, Wagoner hopes to close her sophomore season with a December trip back to Ohio, site of the final rounds of this year’s NCAA Tournament. “That’s definitely a big motivation for me and I know the team wants to help me get back home so my family can see me play in person,” said Wagoner, an outside hitter from Dublin, Ohio. As with men’s volleyball this past spring, Columbus represents the ultimate goal for NCAA women’s programs heading into the fall season as host of the national semifinals and championship set for Dec. 16-18. It’s a setting Wagoner is well familiar with, having grown up about a 20-minute drive from Columbus, where she played most of her club tournaments. The road to Nationwide Arena is long and arduous and the first steps are planted in the practice gym. For Wagoner and the Rainbow Wahine, the opportunity to simply compete for a place in the tournament is not one taken for granted. After Big West teams sat out the fall of 2020, then the spring as most of the other Division I conferences played their delayed schedules, Wagoner said the Wahine returned to team workouts, “definitely a lot more motivated just because we know that it can be taken away from us at any point.” When Wagoner was back home last year, she said, she didn’t have much access to a gym, but looked for ways to continue to prepare for an eventual return to the game. “I really just pushed myself doing all the things that I could do working out and running and being in shape for when I came back,” Wagoner said. “It was kind of frustrating not having that, but it also gave me a different outlook. I found some different things that I like to do outside of volleyball.” Now that she’s back in the gym, “I appreciate it because I know that not everyone gets this chance and I just am grateful that I got it all the time.” Wagoner — whose parents watched the UH men’s team win the national title at Ohio State in May — returned to a crowded competition for the outside hitter spots after earning 14 starts as a freshman in 2019. She averaged 1.31 kills per set in her introduction to college volleyball and is looking to build on and share her experience within a roster with nine players making their on-court debuts. “We’ve got a lot of new faces and a lot of freshmen, (and) COVID freshmen, so my class, the class above me are really just gonna have to lead by example,” Wagoner said.

It’s just a very odd and dumb question to ask considering the fact that verbal commit rules have not changed. It just sounded like you were purposely trying to sew doubt and negativity in her desire to come to UH. Sorry if you feel offended but if she decommits i will blame you and your bad juju |
