<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='485568' first='Hiley' last='Brewer'] – 5'9” – Outside – Ellington</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Ellington will turn into a contention team for the playoffs over the next three seasons. With three of the top six players being from the 2027 class. Hiley led the entire 2027 class from Class 1 schools in kills with 282. Already a strong hitter on the left pin Brewer is focusing on volleyball in the offseason and will come back next year a lot better.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='485590' first='Rylie' last='Schreiner'] – 5'8” – Outside – Leopold</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>With three 2027s playing in the rotation at Leopold the future is bright for the Wildcats. Rylie finished the season with 215 kills for third on her team and will have her club team [program_tooltip program_id='428797' first='Pursuit' last=''] 14 Elite strong on the pins. She would finish the season 3<sup>rd</sup> in kills for the 2027 class for small-town Leopold.</p>

<p><strong>Bryleigh Brawley – 5'7”- Outside – Eminence</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Brawley is another Redwing that had a big first season. The six-rotation outside put down 155 kills, and 161 digs, and was the primary passer for the small school power. She has all the makings of a tough Class 1 outside.</p>

<p><strong>Kenna Thele – 5'9” – Opposite – Meadow Heights</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Thele finished with 116 kills on the season placing her 4<sup>th</sup> on her team and finished 2<sup>nd</sup> in blocks with 35. The opposite led her team in hitting percentage with .318. This will definitely change as she moves into a more offensive weapon next couple of seasons.</p>

<p><strong> [player_tooltip player_id='485642' first='Ryleigh' last='Maxwell'] – 5'6” – Outside – Valley Caledonia</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Ryleigh was a stat stuffer for the Vikings in the first season. She was 2<sup>nd</sup> on her team in kills with 136, 3<sup>rd</sup> in digs with 327, 1<sup>st</sup> in assists with 280, and was one of the top passers on the team. Not a strong program at Valley but with three 2027s being the main contributors that could very well change in the next few seasons.</p>
