PHILLIPS ON WHITLOCK: Riley is a versatile attacker that can play at either pin. She has continued to improve her all-around game and will bring not just a net presence but also ball control to the gym. Her fast arm and ability to hit all the shots makes her very effective in the front row. She has played in a lot of big pressure matches and has been a go-to attacker on many of those occasions. She's not afraid of big moments and will be a big addition to our program.

HIGH SCHOOL: A four-year letterwinner at William Henry Harrison High School for coach Jacklyn Lehe … helped guide the Raiders to an 87-43 record over her career, including a 27-7 mark and sectional championship her senior season … smashed 1,276 kills over her high school career, including 478 this past season … both totals rank as the second-highest in program history … also registered 575 career digs and 90 career aces … team captain in each of the past three seasons … also earned three letters in basketball so far for the Raiders, earning all-conference honors in each of the past three seasons, along with Third Team All-State accolades as a junior.

WHY BALL STATE: I chose Ball State because of its location and the great program they offer. I love the coaches and the team. The location is ideal because my parents and siblings will still be able to attend my games. The campus is gorgeous!
