NextImg:6-foot-8 volleyball star goes viral as she dominates high school competition

A 6-foot-8 high school volleyball sensation out of Iowa is making the rounds on social media.

Ryanne Brubaker, 16, is taking the sport by storm as a dominant middle blocker for the undefeated Grundy Center varsity girls volleyball team.

The junior starter, who came off the bench last year, has 80 kills in 25 sets and counting in the 2025 season.

“Probably taller than you,” her TikTok states.

Brubaker primarily came off of the bench as sophomore.

 Brubaker set a Grundy Center record by touching 10-foot-4 last month.

A regulation women’s high school volleyball net is set at 7-foot-4 and one-eighth inch.

The team praised Brubaker for her confidence about her height, reposting photos of her parents wearing shirts with the message, “Tall Daughter Club.”

“Heck ya! We love how @RyanneB77326 owns her height!” the Spartans official X account posted in July.

Grudy Center face East Marshall on Sept. 23.
