MLV pro volleyball draft: who’s playing, where, and recognize any names?

Ifenna Cos-Okpalla (Texas A&M), Mimi Colyer (Wisconsin), and Bre Kelly (Pittsburgh) were drafted in November. Find out where they went pro.

The 2025 Major League Volleyball draft featured a number of standout athletes who captivated audiences during the 2025 NCAA Division I women’s volleyball season.

Among those selected was middle blocker Ifenna Cos-Okpalla from Texas A&M, who was drafted in November, with the rest of the list, and then she went on to help lead the Aggies to the program’s first-ever NCAA Division I National Championship title.

Her performance was instrumental in defeating undefeated Nebraska in five sets in the Elite Eight, sweeping Pittsburgh in the Final Four, and then winning the championship against Kentucky 26-24, 25-15, 25-20.

Additionally, the November MLV draft included Pittsburgh’s 2025 All-Americans Bre Kelley and Brooke Mosher, both of whom had impressive college seasons that ended in the Final Four.

The draft also saw the selection of Taylor Landfair and Allie Sczech. Both student-athletes repped Nebraska in 2025 in the Huskers' monumental year at the net.
