6 Big Risers in the 2028 Rankings

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The hard work and dedication these athletes have are hard to match. They are getting better each and every week. They are having a great school season, peppered with quality lessons and extra reps on the side. They are doing what a ton of others are not willing to do. Let's take a look at 6 players who have begun climbing the charts of our 2028 rankings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='737518' first='Brianni' last='Kimbro'] She is a 6'2 Middle Blocker from Lawton Mac. She recently made a top club team in Oklahoma for the upcoming season. This is a reflection of the growth she has made and the ceiling she is capable of reaching. Her front row play is stamped with big blocks and very efficient hitting. She is going to start garnishing plenty of college level interest this year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='757040' first='Kaprie' last='Craddock'] Kaprie plays for 5A Altus and has really taken her game to the next level. Her ability to make huge plays has gone through the roof. She also has far more control and attacking range. These things combined have made her a way more efficient player and therefore bring a ton of value. Her blocking has become a real problem for hitters. She is pressing across the net well and taking away more court.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='715182' first='Isabella' last='Robberson']- Isabella is a DS for Community Christian. Community has one of, if not, the best back rows in the state. Isabella is a big part of that. Her and [player_tooltip player_id='752752' first='Emma' last='Rogers'] cover a ton of ground in serve receive. Her biggest jump came in the form of her in transition digging, mainly from reading better and quicker reactions to the ball. Another big club season is on the horizon for her.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='774413' first='Adrian' last='Hawley'] Adrian is a DS for Sapulpa. Her ability to cover more area in SR and be a calm, consistent leader for her team is the biggest jump I have seen in her game. She also has the ability at times to do a great job with spot serving and cause issues there as well for opponents.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='739951' first='Kaylin' last='Cook'] Kaylin is a setter for OCS and is having an amazing season. Her height and athleticism is obvious from the jump but its her consistent setting and leadership that really bring some value to her team. They have a real shot to win the state title this season and Kaylin will have to play big for them.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Marleigh O'Connor- Marleigh is a DS for Norman High. She has had a massive growth year. From playing under college coach, Mike Freeman, on Kaizen 16 Black to playing for coach Alexis Brendemihl at Norman. She is really playing at a high level this season. The back row play is a big reason the Tigers have been a top 3 team the entire season. Watch out for them to make some real noise in the next couple weeks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lets finish out this awesome regular season we have had and get ready for playoffs!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
