2025 Rankings Update: Stock Risers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Like with every ranking update, we see some athletes making big moves after a stellar season or big performances. The <a href="https://prepdig.com/minnesota/rankings/2025-rankings/">Class of 2025</a> rankings are no different as we see some players reaching new heights as their hard work pays off. Here's a look at some prospects that have improved their position over the past club season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["229827"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66c18173022d3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Holthaus has always been solid but when I saw her playing at the Gauntlet in June she was just lights out. She does not shy away from pressure and while her movement was only one spot since the last update it's a big move when you are already in the top 5. Holthaus has a great all-around game and shows it in every play. She is a consistent first contact and can finish a play from the front row or back row. The Summit League had better brace themselves for Holthaus coming in 2025.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["283773"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66c1817302333"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Slusser has made really big moves over the past 2 years and she has worked her way up the rankings. This 6'2 middle stepped up in a big way for Northern Lights this past club season and she could make in impact at Butler early on. Slusser has a nose for the ball as a blocker and gets a natural read on attackers. Offensively her court vision and play execution have improved to make her a weapon on both sides of the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["229965"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66c2c0e300592"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nobody has had quite the breakout year like Tufto. This 6'0 pin hitter has creeped her way up the rankings with one big performance after another. Tufto is an explosive athlete with multiple shots and an internal tracking device as a blocker. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["177426"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66c2c0e300784"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Weaver has been a pretty steady riser in the 2025 rankings. She has really come into her own this past club season with a bigger role and an opportunity to build confidence on the floor. She is battle-tested and ready for her senior season as she prepares to take on the Summit League in 2025. Weaver was able to showcase her hitting ability at the Gauntlet and her passing and defense improved as well. She will likely find a way to be an impact player for the Roos.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["261244"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-66c2c0e3007f9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Adler has the ability to be an effective swing from the right side pin or the middle. Her blocking can provide ample intimidation as she presses into the opposing attackers air space. This Jacksonville commit's footwork and ability to finish plays has improved over the past year and given her a number of opportunities at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">More Stock Risers:</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='226835' first='Kailani' last='Schroeder'] - 5'8 - Setter - Committed to Upper Iowa</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='497479' first='Annika' last='Swenson'] - 6'0 - Middle Blocker - Committed to Concordia-St. Paul</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='177425' first='Olivia' last='Wagner'] - 6'0 - Setter - Committed to Valapraiso</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='197164' first='Olivia' last='Moore'] - 5'10 - Outside Hitter - Committed to Angelo State</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='218718' first='Addison' last='Ertz'] - 6'1 - Pin Hitter - Committed to Jamestown</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='117630' first='Jaelyn' last='LaPlante'] - 5'9 - Outside Hitter - Committed to Minnesota State - Mankato</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='229970' first='Isabel' last='Purrington'] - 6'0 - Outside Hitter - Committed to Metropolitan State - Denver</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='229966' first='Greta' last='Tompkins'] - 6'1 - Middle Blocker - Committed to Gustavus Adolphus</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='170022' first='Bailey' last='Gohlke'] - 5'11 - Setter - East Tennessee State</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='541573' first='Marin' last='Harvey'] - 6'1 - Pin Hitter - Committed to Army</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
