Just a reminder that we'll see a number of official commitments on Sunday for 2027. Always a fun day.
VB: June 15th Reminder
- Thread starter pittdan77
- Start date
Well, considering that there isn't supposed to be any real contact until midnight on Saturday, there isn't exactly anything really out there. There is the camp contact and maybe contact through a club director. Some schools will send those offers as soon as the clock strikes midnight and expect a pretty immediate answer.
This was a fun thread last year. Honestly thought it was better here than on Volleytalk.
2027's that I've seen proof of camping at Pitt so far are:
Olivia Henry (New York, but playing at IMG)
Taylor Harrington (DMV)
Lila Green (California)
Carson Caraway (Mississippi)
McKenna McIntosh (California)
Mavi Triantafyllos (Connecticut)
Of this group, I feel the most confident about McKenna McIntosh committing, of what I've seen.
Additional campers I can't source anywhere other than VB Adrenaline are: Journee Scott (Pennsylvania/Canon Mac), Laila Chadwick (DMV), and Coco Lewis (DMV).
Prospects I have not seen camp activity with, but would not be surprised to see commit to Pitt based off of non-camp things I've seen are: Pulelehua Laikona (Arizona) and Kyla Williams (Ohio).
One highly regarded recruit I've seen with at least tangential Pitt related contact with is Kate Kalcyznski, but any possibility there likely ended with Shaun Ermi resurfacing at UNC.
Two wild cards to throw in just because they intrigue me - not because I necessarily think there is mutual interest - Caroline Ward (Indiana - from the same HS as Masten, has a USA NTDP background) & Evangeline Jeffries (California - 6'4 hitter from Sierra Canyon, sound familiar?)
They've added so many players between 2025 (the two Euros + Masten reclass + Emch) and 2026 (Smallwood + Ayanna/Trinity/Hoppe/Sageer) that I honestly can't even guess what they're prioritizing for 2027 other than BPA.
Each recruiting service is gonna have a different order of rankings, but to get a sense of where the names I've listed stack up in the class overall, VB Adrenaline has something to give you a general idea where they may fall Nationally.

If we get any combination of these players- that would be an elite recruiting class . Exciting to read !
McIntosh is rated the #21 player in the class per one analyst as posted on VolleyTalk. Harrington is rated #15. Henry is rated #10 and Caraway #26. Caroline Ward, Masten’s teammate, is #12. All are listed as 5-star recruits. All but one are OH.
Thank you. I don't bother with Volleytalk too much. Excellent write-up.
We saw Journee Scott a little at Steel City.
is this good news?
