The featured standouts of the 2026–27 Tomball Cougars volleyball team.
THE SETUP: No. 2 Tomball | VYPE Houston Volleyball 2026 Preseason Rankings
Coming off what can easily be described as the program’s most productive showing to date, Tomball enters 2026 carrying clear momentum and a new standard of expectations.
Led by head coach Jordan Williams, the Cougars now look to capitalize on a breakthrough 41-7 campaign that saw them advance five rounds deep into the playoffs and make the program's first appearance in the UIL State Tournament.
Arkansas commit Gemma Hopkins anchors the backline after capturing District 15-6A MVP honors last fall. While liberos rarely claim that distinction, Hopkins left little room for debate, piling up more than 600 digs, 539 receptions, and 161 assists during an exemplary junior season.
First-team all-district setter Greysen Ortmeier, now a sophomore, enjoyed a monumental varsity debut for the Coogs, compiling more than 1,100 assists and 300 digs. As her chemistry with a seasoned core of teammates continues to grow, those numbers could climb even higher.
Defensively, senior Maddux Doty provides another steady presence alongside Hopkins in the back row. Tomball’s attack will feature no shortage of weapons, headlined by seniors Georgia Hornes (UT Tyler commit), Taylor Choate (Wharton County JC), and Kennedy Spencer, alongside junior standout Kinsley Moretti. Each earned all-district recognition a year ago, giving the Cougars a versatile group of offensive threats.
