Blanco is replacing half its starting lineup in 2025 as it looks to repeat as district champions.

The Lady Panthers finished 20-19 overall and won the district with an 8-2 mark in 2024. They won their opening round playoff game against Clyde, before dropping the second round playoff match against Holliday.

Returners in 2025 include setter Landry Meyer, outside hitters Carleigh Dotson, Gretschen Grosch and Brighton Atchley, and middle hitter Payton Craft.
