ROANOKE, Va. – She’s just a rising junior but Caleigh Ponn’s impact has been like that of a seasoned veteran. It’s her leadership skills and stellar talent on the volleyball court that has drawn interest from Division I programs. Sunday, the Hidden Valley High School standout verbally committed to play for Kansas State University.
I am so blessed & excited to announce my verbal commitment to play D1 volleyball and further my academic career at K-State.
