Recruiting Student Athletes

🎉 COMMITTED! 🎉

RSA is proud to celebrate CHANNING TIERNEY on her verbal commitment to continue her academic and athletic career at Belmont Abbey College in North Carolina! ⚽️

A technical, possession-focused, two-footed player, Channing brings creativity, leadership, athleticism, and a true team-first mentality to everything she does. Off the field, she’s just as impressive—serving as a Student Leadership Wish Week Co-Chair, mentoring younger athletes through her work at 2-4-1 camp, and giving back through a service trip to Tanzania where she helped build an all-girls school.

We couldn’t be more excited to see Channing take this next step, and we’re proud to have been part of her recruiting journey—congratulations, Channing! 🏰🎓

🚨Please join us in welcoming our newest team member, Coach Ditt!🚨

We’re thrilled to welcome Diane “Coach Ditt” Thompson to RSA as our newest Recruiting Advisor! With an incredible career as a 3x All-American basketball player at Cal State Bakersfield, college head coach, recruiter, and now parent of a Division I volleyball commit, Coach Ditt has experienced the recruiting process from nearly every angle. 🏆

Having coached at the college level for more than a decade, including as the Head Coach at Colorado Christian University and Regis University, she understands exactly what college coaches look for when evaluating student-athletes—and what it takes to build a successful program and find the right fit.

Her approach is simple: honest guidance, real evaluation, and personalized support, not telling athletes what they want to hear or chasing the biggest name on the list. Her passion for evaluating talent and helping young athletes find the college environment where they can truly thrive makes her an incredible addition to the RSA family.

Welcome to RSA, Coach Ditt—we’re beyond thrilled to have you on the RSA team and excited for the impact you’ll make! 🧡💙

Congratulations to Addison Douglass on an unforgettable high school career and her commitment to continue both her academic and athletic journey at Appalachian State University! ⛳️🎓

Addy leaves Kansas as one of the most accomplished golfers in state history, winning an incredible 31 of the 36 high school tournaments she competed in and becoming just the fourth girl in Kansas high school girls golf history to capture 4 state championships—a remarkable achievement that reflects years of dedication, discipline, and competitive excellence.

Additionally, she has earned a spot in the prestigious U.S. Girls’ Junior Championship in Durham next week (July 13-18th) after shooting 5-under 67. This result earned her a first place finish by five strokes at the qualifier held at Elks CC in Columbus, Neb.

Beyond the trophies and accolades, Addy has earned every opportunity through her relentless work ethic, humble attitude, and passion for improving her game.

We’re incredibly proud to have been part of your recruiting journey and can’t wait to watch you represent the Mountaineers both on the course and in the classroom. 💛🖤⛰️

Congratulations to Lila Twork on taking the next step in her soccer journey! Lila graduated high school this summer and will be attending Ferris State University starting in the fall! 🎓📚

A hardworking forward who embraces every challenge, Lila’s relentless drive to improve and her commitment to pushing both herself and her teammates have made her a standout on and off the field. Her determination, toughness, and passion for growth— along with the unwavering support of her family— have helped pave the way to this exciting opportunity.

We can’t wait to see all you’ll accomplish at the next level, Lila! Go Bulldogs! ⚽️

Today marks the 54th anniversary of Title IX— the landmark law that prohibits gender discrimination in education and athletics. This legislation transformed opportunities for generations of female student-athletes, opening doors to compete, lead, earn scholarships, and pursue their dreams at the collegiate level. ⚽🏀🏐🎾⛳️

At RSA, we are proud to support the next generation of female athletes as they navigate the recruiting process and pursue opportunities made possible by those who fought for greater equality in sports. Here’s to celebrating progress, honoring the trailblazers who came before us, and continuing to create opportunities for future generations.
