<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Class of 2027 is starting to take some shape in terms of the top prospects.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>But, with still plenty of matches in their future, there are players that have the potential to really improve their stock.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In the middle, there are definitely some talents that are set to erupt and make a big name for themselves. Here's seven that are flying under the radar right now.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='442999' first='Olivia' last='Berishaj'], Eisenhower/Legacy</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Berishaj is definitely someone people have an awareness for, but I don't know if they realize just how good she can be. Berishaj fills in a complimentary role on some great teams in prep and club play, but makes an impact with the touches she gets. As time moves on, and more opportunities come her way, she will be able to take over matches. She's got the footwork and power to be dominant.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='523833' first='Tessa' last='Boomhour'], Dexter/L2</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 6'1” Boomhour has a lot of potential and is getting a better feel for just how good she can be. While still relying too much on thinking things through, when she does let her play speak for itself, there's a lot of positives there. She doesn't need to use much energy to tower over opponents at the net, and she's consistent with her swing. Being able to pick up her speed and court vision will be key in the next year, but something that can take her game to another level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='586777' first='Nemiah' last='Carper'], Roscommon</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A real hidden gem in Northern Michigan, Carper is one of the fiercest hitters in Division 3. The dual-sport standout can hit from anywhere at the net and makes it look relatively easy. She's got length and a good vertical to play over blockers, but also can see the court well to know where to place the ball. As a basketball player, Carper also has great footwork to rely on. She's going to be an athlete college coaches will need to take a closer look at.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='523863' first='Willow' last='Mason'], Heritage/Michigan Elite</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>You won't find many prospects in this class that can outjump Mason. She springs off the floor and can hang in the air, for what seems like minutes. That kind of explosiveness off the floor is something you can't teach. But, what can be taught are things that Mason keeps adding to her game, which makes her a dangerous player to be up against. As she continues to develop her technique and her tempo, she could become an unstoppable force at the net.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='523848' first='Nicole' last='McDowell'], Notre Dame Prep/Legacy</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>McDowell is a versatile hitter that can play the outside or the middle. At 6'1” she brings a lot of length to the net, but her athleticism allows her to make plays that not everyone at the position can. She's grown a lot in confidence over the last year and has proven that she can go toe-to-toe with great hitters and blockers on the other side of the net. Her pacing and speed should only get better in the next few years, making her a great prospect in this class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='523875' first='Kate' last='Sulkowski'], South Lyon/High Performance</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 6'1” Sulkowski has a high ceiling for growth in her game. Already with a long wingspan to be disruptive defensively, Sulkowski is getting more and more comfortable on offense when it comes to being instinctive. She's playing within the flow of the offense and making a lot of good reactionary plays. With that, her footwork and timing keep getting better. The next year should see Sulkowski establish herself as one of the stronger middles in this class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='699957' first='Brynn' last='Swetz'], Vicksburg/Dead Frog</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Swetz is a 6-foot power arm in the middle that is putting in the work to add new dimensions to her play this club season. She's been developing her slide attacks and showing improvement there. Swetz already has a powerful attack without having to generate a big arm swing, so as she's able to display variety at the net, she can become a real force.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

The Class of 2027 is starting to take some shape in terms of the top prospects.
