<p>I'm doing a little something different today. Often, much of the attention is focused on top-rated athletes, those new to the rankings, the biggest jumps, and so on. Today I want to focus on some of the athletes found a little deeper in the rankings. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Lamley plays her Club Ball at Mavs and high school at Lee's Summit West. Her Hudl showcases her playmaking ability on the pin, including numerous matches where she fills up the stat sheet with kills. She projects as a defender and does well for herself in the back row. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Pryor had a slight ranking jump after her club season with NW Arkansas. The Cassville native is a competitor on the floor and a leader from the setter position. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The Central Methodist pledge should have moved up in these rankings, and we will correct that after this article. Brinkley had a productive club season. She is a dynamic pin who should have a big fall for Hickman. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Fulton was strong during the 2025 campaign. She is another player who earned a higher ranking but was lost in the shuffle, so our apologies. This will be corrected. She was powerful in the middle and ran an effective slide behind the setter. She increased her stock. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Orr was able to compete in her first high school season last fall with significant contributions and held her own. She should have an increase in numbers this fall for West Plains on the pin. </p>
