Class of 2020 outside hitter and defensive specialist Staley Humphries has verbally committed to the East Tennessee State University women’s volleyball program.

Humphries is a junior at Dobyns-Bennett High School in Kingsport, Tennessee where she plays outside hitter and defensive specialist. The school is off to a 29-3 start to 2018 and went 10-0 in the Big 6 Conference after going 24-5 in 2017.

Standing at 5’8″, Humphries plays both left and right side for Kingsport Volleyball Club and the KVC 16-1 Carl team most recently. She owns a 7’2″ standing reach, an 8’8″ approach jump and an 8’10” block touch.

East Tennessee State is off to a 13-4 start to the 2018 season and 2-1 as a member of the Southern Conference (SoCon). Last season they went 19-12 and 12-4 in the league before winning the conference tournament and appearing in the NCAA Tournament.

Additionally, the Buccaneers two defensive specialist/liberos on their 2018 roster to go with five athletes who can fill the left side. Of that group, two are seniors and one is a junior. That means they’d all be set to depart the program prior to Humphries arrival when she looks to contend for early playing time in the fall of 2020.
