Breakdown
15 Mizuno is coached by one of the best in the country, Mayssa Cook. Cook comes into the season following her second straight season finishing in the top 3 at AAU Nationals and winning her third straight Division 1 championship with Marian. Needless to say, this team is in good hands.
Returners
From their days at 14 Mizuno, this team returns a good chunk of their offensive production. On the pins, both Madeline Dettling Madeline Dettling 6'0" | OH SMCC | 2026 State MI and Faith Cullen Faith Cullen 5'10" | OH Brighton | 2026 State MI return. Dettling had a great season with SMCC, seeing significant court time. With time on both pins, Dettling comes into 2023 as a very versatile attacker. Cullen is another versatile piece. A player with great ball control, she can also hang and bang with the best of them.
Returning middles are Reagan Lesley Reagan Lesley 5'10" | MB Chippewa Valley | 2026 State MI and Jayla Zayti Jayla Zayti 6'0" | MB Marian | 2026 State MI , Lesley is a player that is showing a lot of promise coming into the 2023 season. A great attacker that can get it done anywhere along the net, I would be curious to see where she ends up by the end of the season. Zayti is a really strong developing blocker. She got to be a part of Cook’s squad in the championship run this fall. A familiar face to Cook’s system and a player that got to develop behind some strong middle blockers.
Rounding out the group of returners include S Allie Davison Allie Davison 5'10" | S Bloomfield Hills Marian | 2026 State MI and DS Charlotte Gramzow Charlotte Gramzow 5'10" | OH Lutheran Northwest | 2026 State MI . Davison is another Marian kid that’s received significant time under Coach Cook this fall. She also had the opportunity to play under one of the best setters in the country, Ava Sarafa Ava Sarafa 6'0" | S Marian | 2023 State #14 Nation MI . Gramzow, a year ago, proved to be a great utility player under Coach Russ Carney at 14 Mizuno and will certainly continue that role for this team.
New Kids on the Block
Loading up with some big time reinforcements, 15 Mizuno calls up OH/MB Riley Pilat Riley Pilat 5'11" | OH Plymouth Christian | 2026 State MI , L Olivia Beaudrie Olivia Beaudrie 5'7" | OH SMCC | 2026 State MI and S/OPP Emma Keeping Emma Keeping 5'11" | S Imlay City | 2026 State MI . Pilat is the younger sister of 17 Mizuno’s Allison Pilat Allison Pilat 6'2" | OH Plymouth Christian | 2024 State MI and brings a much similar game like her older sis. Pilat has a nice, high contact on the ball and was a major contributor to Plymouth Christian this fall. Beaudrie is going to be a huge name to put on the radar this spring. Easily a talent with the potential to be a five star libero, nationally. I got to watch Beaudrie at the Top 250 and was thoroughly impressed with her game. A scrappy defender with a very high IQ, she’ll be a difference maker in the tough moments. And to put the cherry on top to this team is Emma Keeping Emma Keeping 5'11" | S Imlay City | 2026 State MI . One of the top freshmen in Michigan from the high school season, Keeping was huge for Imlay City. While a talented setter, the lefty knows how to bring some heat on the right side as well. I wouldn’t be surprised to see her play both roles this club season.
