Audrey Flanagan, Henley Anderson, Lynney Tarnow among players looking for spot to compete in Indonesia in August.

Seven MaxPreps All-Americans will be among 19 players competing for a spot on the USA Volleyball U19 team with a chance to participate at the 2025 FIVB Women's U21 World Championships this summer.

The U19s are being pressed into service from Aug. 5-18 in Surabaya, Indonesia, for the U21 team as the tournament conflicts with the NCAA season. It's the second time the younger squad has stepped in as the U19s placed sixth in the 2023 World Championships.


Ayanna Watson of Bishop Gorman (Las Vegas, Nev.) was named to the MaxPreps Junior All-America Team and Isabel Incinelli of Winter Park (Fla.) earned MaxPreps Sophomore All-America honors.

The 19 players will train from July 27-Aug. 4 in Colorado and the group will be cut to a 12-person roster for the competition. The United States squad will compete in Pool B at the World Championships, where it will face China, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Korea and Croatia.

Read on for a look at the complete training camp roster.
