With commitments left and right being announced from across the country, the studs out of Michigan have been becoming more and more prevalent in these recent announcements.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's been awhile since we've covered our last commitment radar report, it's time to update you all on the most recent commitments. Take a look below!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='224604' first='Katerina' last='Stout'] to Wayne State</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>6'2 MB - Dakota/Michigan Elite</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This athletes rise to prominence is quite fascinating to look back on in hindsight. After playing on a local, regional level club team her freshman year, [player_tooltip player_id='224604' first='Katerina' last='Stout'] has evolved into playing in the middle for one of the BEST 17s teams in the country. Playing on the illustrious 17 Mizuno team at Michigan Elite, Stout has saw her stock go through the roof this season. Particularly at the latter parts of the season, at both AAU &amp; USAV Nationals, Stout showcased some amazing play leading into her announcement of committing to Wayne State.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='226904' first='Emma' last='Keeping'] to Wake Forest</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>5'10 S - Imlay City/Michigan Elite</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='226904' first='Emma' last='Keeping'] is one of the top overall prospects in Michigan and one of the top setting prospects nationally, all for good reason! Whether she is setting the ball, attacking the ball or defending it, Keeping plays the entire game at such a disciplined and high level. This past year for 16 Mizuno at Mi Elite, Keeping was the catalyst for the team on all fronts. From leading them offensively, and then running the offense, she does so many things so well. Keeping has kickstarted what has been an unveiling of a HUGE class for the Wake Forest Deacs that include a few other highly touted national prospects.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='226888' first='Aubree' last='Deshetsky'] to Wofford</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>5'10 OH - North Branch/Michigan Elite</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>You can never go wrong with a state champion from Michigan. Wofford has already learned this after their 2023 recruit, Ella Schomer, managed to lead the dogs to their very first NCAA tournament. Expect for a player like [player_tooltip player_id='226888' first='Aubree' last='Deshetsky'] to continue the dominance and rise of the Wofford Terriers. Going into her junior year, Deshetsky has already won two state titles and been apart of 2 of the best 15 and 16s teams in the country. She can play a real strong all around game that has come up huge when it mattered most.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='226894' first='Gina' last='Fedrigo'] to Florida International</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>6'0 OPP - Eisenhower/Legacy</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This commit comes as a bit of surprise, as I figured this would be an announcement to have had later down the road. However, I am a big fan of this news. Gina Federico has been a consistent mainstay for both Legacy and Eisenhower volleyball the last two years on the pins. For Legacy, Fedrigo brings a huge blocking presence to the right side of the court and has continued to grow in her space as an attacker. For Eisenhower, she will be due for a huge fall campaign. Florida International has got a big time prospect on their hands with an incredibly high ceiling.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='200397' first='Dylann' last='Kelly'] to Ferris State</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>6'1 OH - Jenison/FaR Out</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This is some news that I have been WAITING for for quite some time. [player_tooltip player_id='200397' first='Dylann' last='Kelly'] has been slowly, but surely rising up in stock the last year or so. She is this big, physical arm on either pin that can bring the hammer down. Between hammering away at the net though, Kelly has been developing a great touch in her ball control as well which makes her even more dangerous. With a pick up like this, Ferris State will remain to hold a dominance in the Division II space. I'd keep a close eye on Kelly throughout her final fall with Jenison before she departs for Ferris. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
