Aggies Sign Mountain West Freshman of the Year Eliza Sharp to 2026 Class
Dec 26, 2025 | Volleyball
BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION – The Texas A&M volleyball team added redshirt sophomore middle blocker Eliza Sharp to the 2026 roster, head coach Jamie Morrison announced Friday.
Sharp joins the Aggies from Boise State, where she had a historic debut campaign for the Broncos being named Mountain West Conference Freshman of the Year. The middle blocker also garnered All-Mountain West Team honors, as she was only one of five freshmen in the conference to be named in the postseason awards.
"It's hard to win conference awards as a middle blocker and Eliza [Sharp] comes to us as the reigning Freshman of the Year in her conference," coach Morrison said. "She is an elite athlete as both a blocker and an attacker who will continue the lineage of great middle blockers at Texas A&M. From our first phone call, I knew she would be a great fit for our culture, not just as a player, but as a person who embodies the values of Texas A&M."
The Burlingame, California, native impresses offensively, as she ranked second on her team in kills after tallying 250 on the year, averaging 2.21 per set and hitting at a .323 percent clip. She eclipsed double-digit kills on nine occasions, setting her career high at 15 and hitting that number twice versus Navy and Utah State.
On the defensive end she also finished the year second in blocks, stuffing 140 swings in her debut campaign. She set her career high of 11 total blocks versus San Diego State and had another 10-block outing versus Montana.
