Cami May (6-3 MH)

We believe Cami May, a class of 2017 6-3 middle hitter from Cinco Ranch High School (and the Texas Tornados Volleyball club) in Katy, Texas, who signed with Penn State in November 2016 and graduated early from Cinco High School in order to enroll at Penn State (see the video below), has enrolled at Penn State and will be with the team for the Spring Semester. In 2016, Cami was named to Volleyball Magazine’s “25 Underclassmen to Watch” and to PrepVolleyball.com’s Top 50 Juniors. Here’s Cami at her signing:

A Different Approach: May Skips High School Season to Graduate Early

One of the nation’s top volleyball recruits hails from Raines High School in Katy, Texas. Ever heard of it? Not many have.

Cami May is one in a national trend of high-Major DI volleyball recruits who are bypassing the high school game. They are exclusively playing club ball en route to the college game.

The 6-foot-3 middle played three seasons for Cinco Ranch High School, before enrolling at Raines to graduate early and shove off to national-power Penn State after Christmas.

“It’s different,” she said. “I don’t know anyone. I get there and just go on a computer and start working. I eat lunch at my computer and work at my own pace. I still see my friends all of the time from Cinco Ranch, but I just don’t have classes with them.”
