Continue ReadingThe final set of our March Prospect Roulette feature goes to the 2027 prospects.
Here’s how it works: I’ll pop up a random number generator that includes the 20 players in the 2027 rankings. I’ll generate four numbers and the four that come up will be the ranking of the player. I’ll then spotlight those players in the article to help give them some more attention. I will then take five random numbers from the nearly 70 Watch List prospects. Their number is where they are alphabetically in the Watch List.
Let’s see who has the lucky numbers for this month’s edition:
17. Makayla Naves Makayla Naves 5'7" | DS/L Grand Blanc | 2027 State MI , DS/L Grand Blanc/Legacy
Naves hasn’t always been sporting the libero jersey this club season, but she gives Legacy 15-1 ADIDAS multiple libero-quality players in the back row. Naves is always in good position to come through with a tough dig. She stays light on her feet and always on the go. Her form is technically solid and she also brings a great serve to the floor.
6. Calli LeFevre Calli LeFevre 5'11" | OH Marian | 2027 State MI , OH Marian/Legacy
LeFevre has been having a big club season for one of the nation’s top squads in Legacy 15-1 ADIDAS. She’s become a dominant finishing on the left pin with a lot of consistent power in her swing. LeFevre has also been putting down her fair share of back-row attacks. She’s worked hard to improve defensively and turning into a very well-rounded outside.
8. Mallory Wandel Mallory Wandel 6'0" | OH Rockford | 2027 State MI , OH Rockford/MVA
Wandel took on a big workload for Rockford in the fall and she’s building on that successful season with a lot of good play for Rise Academy 51. Wandel is a very active player on the net, creating a lot of havoc defensively. Offensively, Wandel puts balls away from either pin with a lot of authority. The ball really explodes off her violent swing.
20. Jordyn Jones Jordyn Jones 5'8" | OH Richmond | 2027 State MI , OH Richmond/Michigan Elite
Jones has been putting balls away from all over the floor for Michigan Elite 15 Mizuno. She’s got a lot of lift off the floor and combines that was a fast and smooth swing. She’s able to mix up her speeds well and has good court awareness. Jones has been quick to recognize where the ball needs to go and throws off the defense with her varied placements.
WL Piper Cebulski Piper Cebulski 6'2" | RS Grand Rapids Christian | 2027 MI , S/RS GR Christian/FaR Out
Cebulski is a setter over 6-foot tall and that brings a lot of potential. She uses her length well to play an up-tempo offense and make quick connections with her hitters. Cebulski naturally has some hitting skills as well, as she can play well above the net. As she continues to gain confidence in her play and show more instincts, she’s sure to be a top-level prospect.
WL Bridget Boughton Bridget Boughton 5'8" | S Lakeland | 2027 MI , S Lakeland/L2
Boughton has been showing improvement with her placement and ability to mix up her sets this club season with L2 152. She’s got the athleticism to make some difficult plays, so as her accuracy and consistency continues to improve, it opens the door for a lot of options for her. Boughton also does a good job of staying committed to her defensive game.
WL Addison Stepp Addison Stepp 5'8" | DS/L South Lyon East | 2027 MI , DS/L South Lyon East/Legacy
Another of Legacy 15-1 ADIDAS’ top defender, Stepp has been sporting the libero jersey a fair amount for the squad while it competes against the top teams in the nation. Stepp displays a lot of court IQ and has dug up some of the best hitters in the country. She’s got the skillset and experience to command the back row and be a vocal leader.
WL Zoe Ryan Zoe Ryan 5'7" | DS/L Divine Child | 2027 MI , DS/L Divine Child/Michigan Elite
Ryan has been a nice asset for Michigan Elite 15 National this club season. She does a good job of recognizing the hot hitters on the team and getting them the ball. Ryan keeps a simplified approach to her sets, but gives her hitters a ball they can put down. She’s also a scrappy defender and has been piling up solid aces this winter.
WL Aydia Bartz Aydia Bartz 5'6" | DS/L Clarkston | 2027 MI , DS/L Clarkston/Unified
Bartz is getting a lot of good reps this club season to try and improve on her play. She’s picking up a lot of digs throughout the club season for Unified 15-1. Bartz is able to adjust to the ball well at the last second to still keep a rally going. Sometimes she is overcommitted to a spot and has to adjust, but still has the quick reaction time to make the dig. As her footwork and court-reading keep improving, Bartz should be a very reliable libero.
