Katie Dalton is a 6-foot-1 setter from Parker, Colo., who earned Second Team All-Big 12 accolades in the recently-completed 2025 campaign with Kansas. She led a Jayhawk squad that reached the Sweet 16 with 780 assists (8.76 aps.), in addition to 2.27 digs per set, 0.52 kills per set and 0.39 blocks per set. She had nine double-doubles in Big 12 play, including six in a row from Sept. 26-Oct. 10.
Dalton played in 131 sets over 43 matches her first two seasons with the Jayhawks, amassing 276 digs, 117 assists and 19 aces while playing defensive specialist and backing up 2023 Big 12 Setter of the Year Camryn Turner. She redshirted the 2024 season.
A First Team AVCA High School All-America choice in 2021, Dalton won a state title at Chaparral High School in 2018 and won four league titles. Her sister Nicole was a setter at Texas from 2012-16, while another sister Julianna was an outside hitter at Washington State in 2020.
Dalton will complete her undergraduate degree at Kansas this spring and arrive at Creighton in the summer of 2026. She has one year of eligibility remaining.
"Katie brings in four years of experience at one of the top programs in the country," said Rosen. "Running the show at Kansas this past season, she led her team to a Sweet 16 appearance. She's a complete setter who not only runs a great offense, but can also defend, block, and serve at a very high level. For her last season, Katie has the opportunity to be a leader on-and-off the court, mentor our incredible incoming freshman, and is determined to help us achieve our Final Four goals. She has such a fun personality and is also fiercely competitive."
