Ellie Friedrichs '26 Recruiting Profile

Hello my name is Ellie Friedrichs #12 for Vital Volleyball Club 16-1 Gold! I’m a 2026 5’9” 6-rotation outside hitter and serve receiver and we compete in the open division. I also earned a starting varsity position my freshman/sophomore year and captain's role as a junior for my high school team in Minnesota’s top 4A league. No matter the season, you will see, and hear, me on the court, at a camp or combine, or in the gym to better my game. My goal is to play college for a competitive team that can use my skills as an OH and/or DS. My strengths as a player and leader come from being a well-rounded player with a heavy right hand, a strong passer with good court awareness, a good communicator that's mentally tough, and always dedicated to getting better to help my team!
