<p>1. <strong>Fair Grove Eagles 27-1-2</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Eagles finally lost over the weekend to Webb City 20-25, 14-25 which is in no way a bad loss. I still have 2025 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='493046' first='Shea' last='Skouby']</strong> and her Eagles as the top team. </p>

<p>2. <strong>Hermann Bearcats 16-15</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This hasn't been the typical season for Hermann but they do have a recent 2-1 win over Carl Junction. 2026 <strong>Ashlyn Hughes</strong> has been playing strong recently to help the Bearcats offense. Despite the record until someone can knock them off from Class 2 Hermann stays at #2.</p>

<p>3. <strong>Adrian Blackhawks 24-1-2</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Pleasant Hill is the only team at this point to knock off the Blackhawks 0-2. 2026 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='490128' first='Lizzie' last='Clifton']</strong> is a heavy hitter on the outside with 383 kills.</p>

<p>4. <strong>Stover Bulldogs 25-1</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A loss to Class 1 ranked Northwest isn't all that bad of a loss for the Bulldogs 23-25, 21-25 but does move them down. 2025 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='493061' first='Ashlyn' last='Pinzke']</strong> carries the attack with 270 kills.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>5. <strong>Whitfield Warriors 14-9-2</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>With an 8-2-1 start, the Warriors were looking like a top Class 2 team. Then they went on an 8-match losing streak and did so without one of the best players on the team. Now back and healthy they have won their last six. 2024 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='468287' first='Taryn' last='Jones']</strong> is one tough outside.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>6. <strong>Licking Wildcats 26-5-1</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>2024 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='195373' first='Hannah' last='Medlock']</strong> is a tough outside for the Wildcats and carries 372 kills on the season. Licking should finish the season with wins in their last two matches.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>7. <strong>Spokane Owls 30-4</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The first team to 30 wins in Class 2 has two losses to Class 1-ranked Galena and Jasper. <strong>Hannah Evans </strong>keeps the offense going with her team-high 230 digs.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>8. <strong>Bishop LeBlond Eagles 22-4</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Two losses to Glenwood, IA, and then to St. Pius X (KC) 1-3 and Savannah 1-3 are not bad losses for LeBlond. 2024 <strong>[player_tooltip player_id='495340' first='Kyla' last='Conard'] </strong>runs the offense with over 1,600 career assists.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>9. <strong>El Dorado Springs Bulldogs 23-6-1</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Fair Grove is the only Class 2 team to knock off El Dorado Springs. <strong>Gracie Mead</strong> is a tough middle for the Bulldogs and carries the attack.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>10. <strong>Diamond Wildcats 24-4-1</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Class 1 Jasper has knocked off the Wildcats twice, but 2026 <strong>Aubrey Ball</strong> is a big middle who helps her team with 57 blocks and 162 kills.</p>
