WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Head coach Dave Shondell announced the 2025 signing class, featuring four newcomers: Isabelle Bardin, Addy Tindall, Aniya Warren and Morgan Williams.
"The momentum continues to build in the Boilermaker program with our incoming class of talented volleyball athletes," Shondell said. "Success breeds success and the positive results of the past several years and the remarkable fan support have attracted several of the nation's best recruits.
"Competing in the best and most physical conference in America, it is essential to add size and athleticism to our roster and these four high school standouts provide exactly what our staff has been searching for," Shondell said. "This group includes an outside hitter, a setter, a middle-blocker, and a libero. The physical talent of this group is only surpassed by their unique character. I look forward to their arrival."
The class, which will be a part of next year's 2025 Purdue squad, adds depth for the Boilermakers at every position, comprised of a defensive specialist (Aniya Warren), setter (Isabelle Bardin), outside hitter (Addy Tindall) and middle blocker (Morgan Willliams). Meanwhile, Purdue's presence at the net wil grow, with three commits checking in at 6'3".
