New Additions to the 2025 Rankings!

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2025 Rankings update is live, and a tremendous group of players are in the rankings for the first time. It's normal to see a large group of players debut when a class is updated for only the second time, especially when a full club season of exposure has occurred. Players who may not have had a featured role as sophomores in high school have a chance to compete in their own age group, and several of the players featured here caught our early in the 2023 club season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Look for articles covering Stock Risers, positional breakdowns, and more on the class of 2025 this week! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["275202"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"At 6 feet 3 inches tall with a powerful left handed swing, Daniel has the prototype tools to play the right side at a high level.

Barbee will look to have a big season for a West Valley Yakima team that has been consistently in the state tournament.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64d46fa108ae2"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://youtu.be/MQQ3tDmIr08","type":"video","providerNameSlug":"youtube","responsive":true,"className":"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://youtu.be/MQQ3tDmIr08 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["266198"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Williams is another defender who can flat-out go get it, much like Barbee from West Valley and several of the talented 2025 liberos in Washington. This is a strong position group, and Williams earned her spot in the rankings with her athletic brand of defense, and a take-charge attitude when she is playing on the back line.

An outside hitter for Eastlake and Sudden Impact, Johnson can pass tough in serve receive and take a critical swing with the set on the line.
