Volleyball adds freshman outside hitter Christa Wilburn to 2025 roster

DALLAS (SMU) – Outside hitter Christa Wilburn has been added to the 2025 SMU volleyball roster, head coach Sam Erger announced on Friday. Wilburn initially committed to the Mustangs as part of the 2026 freshman class but has reclassified to join the team this fall.

The 6-foot-2 outside hitter was a standout at Dripping Springs High School and Regents School of Austin. As a freshman and sophomore at Regents, she tallied over 500 kills per season, helping her collect First Team All-State and All-District honors in both seasons.

Wilburn transferred to Dripping Springs to finish out her high school career, and in her senior season finished the year with 344 kills and 346 digs, racking up several accolades including, AVCA Girls High School All-Region, Texas Girls Coaches Association (TGCA) 6A All-State Team, TGCA 6A District Newcomer of the Year, while also being selected to the TGCA 6A All-Star Team as an alternate.

In her club career, Wilburn was a three-time team MVP and a four-time captain for Austin Skyline Juniors.

Wilburn and the Mustangs will begin the 2025 regular season Aug. 29 in Baton Rouge against LSU.
