2027 Prospect Roulette for May

<p>We wrap up this month's Prospect Roulette with the Class of 2027.</p>   <p>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 six random numbers from the over 100 Watch List prospects. Their number is where they are alphabetically in the Watch List.</p>   <p>Let's see who has the lucky numbers for this month's edition:</p>   <p><em>The </em><a href="https://events.prepdig.com/e/1124/register/michigan-freshman-showcase"><em>Michigan Freshman Showcase</em></a><em> and </em><a href="https://events.prepdig.com/e/1136/register/michigan-stock-up-showcase"><em>Michigan Stock Up Showcase</em></a><em> are coming to Pontiac on Aug. 4.

[player_tooltip player_id='442982' first='Grace' last='Goodyke'], OH GR Christian/FaR Out</strong></h2>   <p>Goodyke has proven to play like an upperclassman despite being a freshman. The 6'1” outside plays with swagger and has great instincts at the net. She knows how to bring energy to the floor and is working hard to become a complete player and make defensive improvements. She's definitely going to be on the radar of many colleges.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>16. [player_tooltip player_id='454358' first='Lily' last='Tripi'], S Eisenhower/Michigan Elite</strong></h2>   <p>A 6'1” setter, Tripi has an elite skillset and still has a high ceiling she can hit. Her footwork and instincts are at a high level, as she can run a fast offense and put a smooth touch on the ball. Defensively, she's a fierce blocker and shows a lot of awareness to back up her hitters. As she continues to add elements of her game, Tripi is going to be a major force in the state.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>15. [player_tooltip player_id='467951' first='Rylee' last='Paddock'], DS/L Jenison/FaR Out</strong></h2>   <p>Paddock came through with some big digs in high-pressure situations this past fall in a crowded Grand Rapids area. She met the biggest and most powerful hitters, but still came through with impressive digs and played with a lot of maturity. She looks as consistent as any player on the floor and that ability to maintain her form is why she will continue to shine.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>19. [player_tooltip player_id='442971' first='Brenna' last='Mirovsky'], S Oxford/Michigan Elite</strong></h2>   <p>Mirovsky has the ability to adapt very well and can make a smooth attack when the time calls for it. As a setter, she brings good energy to the court and communicates well with her hitters. She makes adjustments each point to get the best out of her hitters, but she's also an energetic defender that can turn a game around with a key dig or block.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>WL [player_tooltip player_id='442996' first='Melayna' last='Minyard'], OH Chelsea/Haifive</strong></h2>   <p>Minyard is a well-round prospect that can also set and can be a standout defender. No matter where she plays, she seems to be comfortable in her role and finds ways to make plays. Minyard does a good job of staying within herself and not trying to force a play that isn't there and she's showing progression in her shot selection.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>WL [player_tooltip player_id='454365' first='Meaghan' last='Sullivan'], MH Saline/L2</strong></h2>   <p>Sullivan is making good strides in her play and finding a home for her attacks. Sullivan is able to consistently put power behind her swings and is able to challenge the defense. She's got room to improve on her quickness and instincts, but she's still finding another level for her play.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>WL [player_tooltip player_id='523844' first='Irelynn' last='Sedore'], OH Pennfield/FaR Out</strong></h2>   <p>Sedore is a well-rounded player that is making solid improvements. She's got a steady attack with consistent power, a strong serve, and a good defensive base. As she's able to raise the speed of her play, you should see more explosive attacks coming from her. She looks comfortable on the floor, which is a big key to her growth.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>WL [player_tooltip player_id='454364' first='Maiya' last='Heinemann'], OH Saline/L2</strong></h2>   <p>Heinemann has shown the ability to produce good power on her attacks while putting the ball all over the defense's side of the floor. She's willing to take some risks and challenge the boundaries. Her attacks are getting stronger and showing more velocity as the club season has been moved on. Heinemann also has a solid back-row swing.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>WL [player_tooltip player_id='490376' first='Margaret' last='Alderink'], MH Zeeland West/MVA</strong></h2>   <p>The 6-footer is showing a lot of good thinks for Rise Academy this club season. She's got the speed, power and quickness to take over a match from the middle. She's putting down attacks without giving the defense much opportunity to respond. Alderink also brings a lot of competitive fire to the floor, which boosts the energy of the team.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>WL [player_tooltip player_id='454359' first='Elise' last='Biermann'], OH Eisenhower/Michigan Elite</strong></h2>   <p>Biermann should find her way into the rankings portion of this class soon. She's already showcasing she can hang with some top-level talent at higher grades. When it comes to finishing ability, Biermann has been able to put away points from anywhere on the floor. She's got a great mix of power and offspeed attacks, and has a serve that's among the best in the class.</p>
