Player Matrix – 2021 to 2024
The Player Matrix is our best guess about who will be on Penn State’s roster during the period from 2021 to 2024, including players we are aware of who have either signed letters of intent for 2021, or who have publicly announced their verbal commitment to join the Penn State Women’s Volleyball team in 2021, 2022, 2023 or 2024.
This is a particularly tough job this season (and probably for the next three seasons) because it’s unclear which players (if any) who were on Penn State’s roster for the 2020 season (which was played January to April of 2021) will avail themselves of the opportunity to play a fifth season — the Covid make-up year. We’ve indicated those players who could do that (and we may well have made mistakes on that score — let us know if we did!), with the designation “4/Sr+ ??” in what would be their fifth year of competition. They could come back, but they might not.
Finally, as always, nothing in the Player Matrix is intended to reflect who is, or is not (or who will be, or will not be), on scholarship, or who will be a significant contributor to the Penn State Women’s volleyball team during any of these seasons. Time will tell.
Also, as always, heights and positions are based on published reports and may not reflect the actual heights of the players or the positions they were recruited to play (or will play) at Penn State.
