Your height is great but a little more weight for power would be good. You can weigh 130 for a perfect weight at your height.
Volleyball was my big sport in high school also.
I was 5'7" and about 125 up to 130.

Weight's not really a problem. Height shouldn't matter if you're a good player. I knew a couple of setters from other teams who looked a bit shorter than I (5'4", 5'5") and they still set excellently. If you're either obese or a walking stick, then that's gonna be a problem. Otherwise, you have nothing to worry about.

Hey, I'm 5'9, Im 14, i weight 186lbs, but in shape, not obese.
I'm a volley/basket ball player on the varsity, and for volley ball, height/weight are not a problem.
If you're tall, stay in he front, if youre short, stay in the back.
