Jordin Heiman to Play for the Roadrunners

Jordin Heiman of Cassopolis Ross Beatty High School and NIVA Volleyball Club has signed with Southwestern Michigan College to play with the Roadrunners starting in Fall 2026.

SMC Head Coach Jenny Nate said, "Jordin Heiman is a fierce attacker and competitor. She can put the ball away, sees the court well, has multiple offensive shots, and is a quick, smart player who prepares to win. Jordin had a great high school season earning First Team All-Conference and helping lead her team to a conference championship.  Jordin also plays for a strong NIVA Volleyball Club where she trains and plays at a high level.  We are excited to welcome Jordin to SMC Volleyball and continue to put our focus on outstanding, local athletes who will help us keep building a championship-caliber winning program on the court, in the classroom, and in our community."

Ross Beatty Varsity Coach Linda Martin added, "Jordin hits a heavy ball.  She has great court sense and intensity.  We struggled to replace her as a passer and hitter upon injury.  She is motivated to improve every day.  SMC is a great place for athletes to play high-level volleyball!"

Heiman joins Maddie Zache of Niles in the 2026 SMC Volleyball recruiting class.
