Indy Ignite News Release


FISHERS, Ind. - Three Indy Ignite players have been named to play in the inaugural Pro Volleyball Federation All-Star Match that Indy serves as the host for on Saturday, February 22 at Fishers Event Center.

Ignite setter Sydney Hilley, outside hitter Leketor Member-Meneh and opposite hitter Azhani Tealer were among those selected to the two 12-player teams in a compilation of voting by PVF fans, coaches and league officials. A pair of top college volleyball coaches - Dave Shondell of Purdue and Michelle Collier of Georgia Tech - will serve as the All-Star team coaches, with Member-Meneh and Tealer playing on Team Shondell and Hilley joining Team Collier.

"We're incredibly proud to have Sydney, Lek and Azhani representing Ignite in the first-ever PVF All-Star Match," Ignite head coach George Padjen said. "Each of them has played a key role in our success this season, and this honor is a reflection of their dedication and impact on the court. It's exciting to celebrate not only their achievements but also the immense talent across the league. Hosting this historic event makes it even more special, and we can't wait for fans to experience such a high-level showcase of volleyball."

Tickets for the star-studded PVF All-Star Match are available at provolleyball.com or the Fishers Event Center box office. The match will be broadcast live on the CBS national television network beginning at 1:30 p.m. ET, shining another nationwide spotlight on the fast-growing sport of women's professional volleyball.

"The rosters for this unprecedented match are flat out outstanding," Pro Volleyball Federation CEO Jen Spicher said. "Putting these two teams together was a massive and difficult task based on how many great players there are in this league. To combine that with more than 10,000 fans voting just shows that if you can't be there in person, it's a must-watch event on CBS!"

The Ignite trio is highly deserving of All-Star honors based on their performances thus far in the 2025 PVF season. Hilley leads the league in assists (11.84 per set) and is tied for sixth in service aces (six). Member-Meneh tops PVF in points per set (5.32) and kills per set (4.87), while also ranking sixth in digs per set (3.74). Tealer ranks third in the league in blocks (0.80 per set) and fourth in kill percentage (44.7%).

The Atlanta Vibe, Orlando Valkyries and Vegas Thrill led the PVF All-Star selections with four players chosen from each team.
