Lambo announces his 2016 recruiting class which somewhat surprisingly to me includes 8 players.
The Shockers have 24 players on this year's roster. 3 of those players are graduating: Katie Reilly, MaryAshton Floyd and Jaclyn Roddy. Katie is a key component of this year's team but Masher has not played much down the stretch and Jaclyn played very sparingly during her career.
Unless we have more departures from this year's roster we are looking at a roster of 29 players next year. I seriously doubt that will be the case however and I am anticipating that we will have quite a few voluntary departures as some young ladies look for situations that would give them more playing time.
Lambo signed 3 defensive specialists including the youngest of the Mostrom sisters. Lambo said that Jacqui Mostrom comes in as the most skilled and prepared of the 3 sisters as a freshman and 1 local girl, Aspen Kridner of Conway Springs, who he compares to Kelly Broussard (can't get much better praise than that) and another, Kara Brown, out of Lincoln, NE that he compares to our current Valley Libero of the Year Dani Mostrom.
Lambo is adding 4 bigs at 6-1, 6-2, 6-3 and 6-3 and he is also adding a small-town Kansas girl, 5-11 Regan Stiawalt out of Ness City, KS, who may be a bit of a project because she has not been exposed to high level club volleyball but who is athletic and exhibits skills that might make her a 6-rotation player which Lambo values very highly.
Looks like a very solid recruiting class but man the Inn (and the team bus) are getting very crowded.
