She had a lot of pop on her attacks and made a lot of athletic plays. Sometimes she was a little rushed, but if she can find consistency with her composure, she's sure to make an impact for Southfield A&amp;T.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='261180' first='Korin' last='Hutton'], S Anchor Bay/Michigan Elite (2025)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hutton was a Gamechanger on the floor with her ability to lead and direct her hitters. She had a lot of competitive spirit and a positive approach throughout the showcase. Those traits just complimented her solid setting ability.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='288958' first='Madelyn' last='Krappmann'], OH Everest Collegiate/Unified (2025)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Krappmann looks set to be one of the top impact players in Division 4 this fall. She's sure to be a Gamechanger for Everest Collegiate, as she was solid at the net with her attacks throughout the showcase. She never tired and always looked impressive with her power and control.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='384508' first='Hanna' last='Pardon'], OH Brandon/High Performance (2025)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Padon was another power arm that can be a Gamechanger during the prep season. She's always able to dial up a fastball and was calling for the ball during high-pressure situations. She wants to be a difference maker, and can be.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='224600' first='Cali' last='Stevons'], S DeWitt/MVA (2025)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:image {"align":"right","id":437776,"width":200,"height":161,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2023/07/720-Cali-Stevons.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-437776" width="200" height="161" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">[player_tooltip player_id='224600' first='Cali' last='Stevons']</figcaption></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stevons was as steady as it gets for the setters in this showcase. She was poised and in the zone throughout the two hours and always took the plays as they were instead of forcing something that wasn't there.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='261135' first='Clare' last='Beazley'], MH Saline/Michigan Elite (2026)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A promising young middle, Beazley plays longer than her 5'11” listing and does a good job of high-pointing the ball at key times. As a mobile and athletic middle, Beazley could be a Gamechanger for an already strong Saline program.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='243338' first='Addison' last='Dunning'], OH Davison/Five:1 (2026)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Everything about Dunning's game was strong. She had one of the more aggressive serves, while being able to consistently produce a technically-sound and powerful swing at the net. She's 5'7” and packs a Gamechanging punch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='226899' first='Cree' last='Hollier'], MH Mercy/Michigan Elite (2026)</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We've said it before about Hollier, but don't underestimate this middle because she's 5'8”. She may not have the arm length of her peers, but she can spring off the floor with the best of them. Hollier plays very above the net and gets a lot of power off that spring. She's capable of powering through any blockers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
