<p><br>We're on the cusp of the new high school season. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>With the new season, we say good bye to former stars and say hello to the newbies in the spotlight. With so much talent going on around the state, these players are poised to have huge seasons for their last go in their respective HS jerseys!</p>

<p>Let's take a look at some of the top emerging talent in Michigan's senior class! </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='261176' first='Kendall' last='Williams'] - Grand Blanc</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This player's junior club season saw [player_tooltip player_id='261176' first='Kendall' last='Williams'] take a huge leap in play. Starting to play with a little bit more swagger, Williams seemingly has an extra pop in her hop and a strict control at the net with her block. She'll have to show up huge for Grand Blanc this fall in a similar way.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='156300' first='Sadie' last='Haase'] - Fruitport</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='156300' first='Sadie' last='Haase'] has her eye on the prize and will not go down without a fight. An electric force of nature at the net, Haase is another one of those do-it-all dandies in the middle that can slot into a six rotation role with ease. She has a nasty slide attack and can pass at a real efficient level.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='288961' first='Mallory' last='McFarlane'] - Saline</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>When Saline needed a spark in the line up, we got a real sight of what [player_tooltip player_id='288961' first='Mallory' last='McFarlane'] was made of and it was extremely good! Wasting no time cementing herself in the mix with some of the top ‘bros in the state, McFarlane could easily go toe to toe with best. Going into senior season, that libero jersey seemingly has no one else's name on it but hers.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='156302' first='Finley' last='Helm'] - Mt. Pleasant</h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>This player has been creating quite the buzz for herself towards the end of club season and throughout the summer. A spark plug on the court, [player_tooltip player_id='156302' first='Finley' last='Helm'] brings a little bit of everything. She can attack from just about anywhere and her first contact can vie with some of the best. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='446690' first='Anneliese' last='De Jong'] - Kalamazoo Christian </h2>
<!-- /wp:heading -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Coming off of a championship winning fall in her junior season, [player_tooltip player_id='446690' first='Anneliese' last='De Jong'] surely wouldn't mind ringing out her prep career with another ring. Kalamazoo Christian will have to do a lot of heavy leaning on this opposite given how much production they lost in the off season. De Jong could really do some damage as a main focus of the Comet offense.</p>
