2026 Rankings: Five Top 50 Movers

Grimes (*pictured) is elite. She was added to the top 18U team for [program_tooltip program_id='431827' first='Elevation' last=''] this season and is filling a void at the pins with big impact. As a beach commit to Texas, her all-around tools provide so much for this team as she has exceptional ball control and defensive presence while also able to elevate with ease and then hammer the ball. She can score from either side of the floor and when she finds open space she is highly terminal with big pace. Her effort at the OVR 18s bid event help guide this team to the title. It will be fun to see how she and this group compete this weekend at MEQ as they open play in 18 Open as the second team in Pool A across from the top-seeded team in the event.     The Ball State commit continues to shine through the club season after helping guide her Anthony Wayne team to a state runner-up finish. She finished the high school season as a 1st team all-Ohio selection in DII. Some of the best parts of her action at the net offensively include her vision and awareness that leads to her ability to spray the ball around the court with good purpose and power. She and her TVC 17 Black squad are having solid club season thus far and they have positioned themselves well at the upcoming MEQ event as they open the tournament as the #9 overall seed in 17 Open.     Turner ended the 2024 high school season increasing her offensive production at over 600 kills for her career thus far. Expect her to return to Pickerington North in the fall with so much more point scoring in her future given her physical tools and increased assertiveness in what she can do with her arm. She has elite potential for the next level provided how athletic she is and in that she can get up and crush the ball. She is versatile to be patient on a high ball, swing aggressively through more tempo, and terminate through different attack points. She plays for Mintonette's second 17U team, which is one of the best 17U teams in Ohio. As the #28 seed in 17 Open at the upcoming MEQ, they have potential to make some noise, especially with Turner on the primary pin.     I'm a big fan of Dittmar's game. As a 6'0 setter, she has many tools to contribute throughout a match as she defends well at the net and in the back row, she can be offensive at the right time, and her command of the court continues to evolve in her distribution skills. Her footwork has become more fluid, which allows her to use her natural tools well with her length and strength to both contact the ball at a high touch point and to send the ball with good force and accuracy against the flow. She and her Elite VBTC team are the third team in Pool 3 and the #27 seed overall in 17 Open at this weekend's MEQ.     Miller has been a high volume offensive threat for Bay High School over the past two seasons with her best output this past fall as she terminated an average of 4.7 k/s on a .370 efficiency primarily from the left side of the court. The CWC Player of the Year for 2024, Miller competes for CVC's top 17U team, providing her aggressive arm work in the air. She is fluid in her approach work and able to make adjustments according to the set while building good momentum to use her arm speed and power with good control. Miller and her CVC 17 Black team open this weekend's MEQ event as the #4 overall seed in the 17 USA division with a good opportunity to qualify for the GJNC national tournament.
