Setter has always been a strong position here in the state of Michigan and the Class of 2024’s No. 1 player comes from the very position.
Here’s a look at the top 10 setters from our latest rankings update.
1. Zoey Dood Zoey Dood 6'2" | S Grandville | 2024 State #131 Nation MI , Grandville/MVA
The 6’2” setter is our top-ranked overall player. A Virginia commit, Dood has all the intangibles you look for in the position. Her decision-making and court awareness in at an elite level, and she brings in the size and athleticism to make any play offensively and defensively. The game comes very naturally for Dood, but she continues to push herself to get better.
2. Adrienne Greschaw Adrienne Greschaw 5'9" | S North Branch | 2024 State MI , North Branch/Michigan Elite
Greschaw is part of a stacked North Branch squad where everyone brings the best out of each other. As the setter, she’s done a great job of balancing the Bronco attack and leading it to a Division 2 title this fall. In the 2022 season, she tallied 1,286 assists with 254 digs and 66 aces. She’s already tallied over 3,400 assists in her prep career. If she’s able to match her junior year as a senior, she will be a top-10 all-time assist leader in MHSAA history.
3. Caroline Baker Caroline Baker 5'9" | S Byron Center | 2024 State MI , Byron Center/FaR Out
Baker plays with a lot of composure and calm on the floor. She’s a great floor general that communicates well and doesn’t seem to get rattled. When it comes to execution, she’s got very quick hands that put a light touch on the ball. Baker is able to make all the sets and gets the ball to her hitters quickly with what seems like a light amount of effort.
4. Sophie Crawford Sophie Crawford 6'1" | S Gull Lake | 2024 State MI , Gull Lake/Dead Frog
Crawford is a great all-around athlete that contributes in a lot of ways to her team. Along with being a standout setter, she’s also been a key attacker for Gull Lake. She hit .340 on the season with 232 kills to go along with her 879 assists and 276 digs. Her prep career has her approaching 2,000 assists. Crawford has a very quick first step and just an explosive player at multiple positions.
5. Emery Kuebler Emery Kuebler 5'7" | S Clarkston | 2024 State MI , Clarkston/Legacy
Kuebler has a lot of pep on the court and has been the spark plug for the improved Clarkston offense. This past fall, Kuebler put up 1,104 assists for the Wolves. She also recorded 282 digs while helping bring out the best of her hitters during the postseason. With just under 2,500 assists in her prep career, Kuebler is well on her way to crossing the 3,000 threshold.
6. Taylor Smith Taylor Smith 6'1" | S Pewamo Westphalia | 2024 State MI , Pewamo-Westphalia/Five:1
Smith is another long setter that brings a lot to the position. Standing 6’1”, she was the driving force behind Pewamo-Westphalia’s run to the Division 3 state title. During her two matches at Battle Creek, Smith put up an impressive stat line of 62 assists, 15 kills, 20 digs and two blocks. She had the Pirates hit .300 collectively as a team and made it look somewhat effortless.
7. Hanna Bredeweg Hanna Bredeweg 5'9" | S Grand Rapids Christian | 2024 State MI , GR Christian/MVA
Bredeweg is a player that brings as much to the defensive side of the game as she does the offense. She’s very active on the floor and has great vision of what’s developing on the other side of the court. Her defensive skills also apply well to her setting, as she’s got a light touch on the ball and is able to get into position to make a good feed to her hitters.
8. Grace Spoelma Grace Spoelma 5'8" | S Grand Rapids Christian | 2024 State MI , GR Christian/MVA
Spoelma is a teammate of Bredeweg’s and brings a similar skillset to the floor as well. She’s quick on her feet and does a good job of staying ahead of the play. This past fall was a chance for her to really showcase her skills for the Eagles as a setter. Spoelma brings a strong defensive game to the court as well, while also having a difficult serve to contend with.
9. Lea Gage Lea Gage 5'10" | S Brighton | 2024 State MI , Brighton/L2
Gage is another multi-position talent that can contribute anywhere on the floor. This year for a young Brighton team, Gage had to wear a number of hats. She recorded 513 assists, 214 digs, 174 kills and 67 aces. Gage has a natural feel for the game. She’s instinctive, hard-working and eager to make a play.
10. Avery Woodard Avery Woodard 5'7" | S Marysville | 2024 State MI , Marysville/Michigan Elite
Woodard plays with a lot of body control and her hand/eye coordination is very solid. She doesn’t have the length of some of the other setters, but she makes up for that with her agility and ability to get low and make the tough sets to keep her hitters in-system.
