Class of 2027 State Ranking Stock Risers Vol 1

The State Rankings update is here!!! While it was tough, we have made some serious moves with players bettering their stock. The 2027 class is working very hard at their craft and we have noticed it. This series of articles is geared toward those players who were rewarded for their hard work. The following players showed us all that they deserved to be moved up in the rankings due to their individual performances.    Piper has moved into the top two of the State Rankings. She is currently ranked as the 2nd best overall player and best setter according to our Prep Dig California State Rankings. She plays at Mayfield Senior High School and for the City volleyball club program. Ranking the top players in the state is very tough because there are tons of factors that go into it, but each time I grouped players into each category, she kept coming up at the top of each list. Yes she is six foor three! Yes she is that coordinated and powerful! And yes she is the top setter in her grad class because of her soft hands and delivery of the rock! When I saw her at the beginning of her freshman year, I knew that she had tons of potential. It is extremely refreshing to see her progress into what she is becoming. When you watch her compete, she commands the court like a true leader, doesn't take any play off, and communicates extremely well to run her offense. This young lady truly has it all and will be a high level recruit for the next few years. If she keeps up her progress correctly, there is no reason why she can't be competing in the Olympics in the near future. We are very proud of her and all that she will continue to accomplish. Please help us congratulate her on her achievement of moving up the State Ranking List.     Miss McIntosh has risen in the State Rankings. She is now currently ranked as the 4th best overall player according to our Prep Dig California State Rankings. She plays for St. Mary's High School and also for the Vision volleyball club program. Miss McIntosh continues to impress everyone who watches her compete. In her second year on Varsity, she has taken command of the spotlight and still shines bright. During this club season, there have been times where she has been unstoppable at the net. Routinely getting her had over the net when she is blocking, this young lady is now a shut down blocker and coaches she instruct their setters to not go her way too many times if they want an opportunity to score. Her work ethic is phenomenal and we have noticed her focusing on small technical adjustments. This is catapulting her to the top of many conversations on who is the best attacker in the country. Not only is she an elite scorer, but she is a true six-rotation left side who can be the cornerstone of any squad. But the best part about her game is that she keeps working to get better and is not satisfied. That spells doom for whichever teams have to go up against her in the future. We see the hard work and have rewarded her for it with this placement. Please help us congratulate her on moving up in our prestigious State Rankings.     Miss Barnes has shot up the State Rankings in this update. She is now currently ranked as the 13th best overall player according to our Prep Dig California State Rankings. She plays volleyball for Marymount High School and also plays for the Mizuno Long Beach volleyball club. If you want a powerful attacker, look no further than Makenna. This young lady can obliterate the ball with the best of them from any location on the court. She has always had that power, but this season I have noticed that she is getting off of the ground a lot faster and up in the air a lot higher than years past. If you are watching her attack, do not blink, because if you do, you will likely not even see the ball come off of her hand. Her arm swing is that lightning quick. What gives her even more power is how she crunches her abs at the point of attack. She is also a very formidable scorer from the pins with how she can tool the block at the last second with a strong swipe if she notices that she has the advantage at the net. This kind of court vision and awareness is why we have moved her up amongst the state's best players. She is the kind of player that you can put on the left side to be a “go-to” hitter or you can also put her on the right side to be a shut down blocker and solid opposite scorer. Please help us congratulate her on moving up in our prestigious State Rankings.    As always stay tuned for more articles on your favorite athletes.
