Penn State women’s volleyball has added another member to its 2025 recruiting class.

Florida transfer Kennedy Martin, a 2024 AVCA First-Team All-American, announced her commitment to the Nittany Lions via Instagram Wednesday morning.

As a sophomore last season, the 6’6″ outside hitter led the nation in points per set with 6.28 behind 5.57 kills per set on a .362 hitting percentage.

Martin was a two-time All-SEC and All-American selection with the Gators and was a 2024 AVCA National Player of the Year Semifinalist.

After entering the portal six days ago, Martin became the third player to transfer to Penn State ahead of next season, joining Ohio State’s Emmi Sellman and Saint Louis’ Addie Lyon. A group of five freshmen will also join the team.

Martin will join Penn State with two years of eligibility remaining.
