The new rankings have four top RS’s that made the top 50. Here’s a closer look at those four.
1. Rebecca Apsey Rebecca Apsey 6'1" | RS Groves | 2023 MI , Groves/Legacy: Apsey has been a real bright spot for Legacy the past few club seasons. She has been the perfect compliment to Harper Murray Harper Murray 6'2" | OH Skyline | 2023 State #2 Nation MI on the outside, and has a really high finishing rate. In the prep season, Apsey is able to fully showcase all her skills while being the go-to hitter for Groves. She definitely plays with a lot of competitive fire and has plenty of explosiveness to back it up.
2. Ella Schomer Ella Schomer 6'0" | RS Marian | 2023 State #142 Nation MI , Marian/Michigan Elite: Schomer was a real unsung hero for Marian this past prep season during the run to the state championship. She continually came through with great swings while hitting a solid percentage. She also has an improving blocking game and very smooth passing. Schomer plays her role well, but also knows when its time to step up and take over in a match. During club season, Schomer is polishing her skills and sure to be a top college prospect in the next few years.
3. Shelby Porter Shelby Porter 6'1" | RS Kenowa Hills | 2023 State MI , Kenowa Hills/MVA: Porter is an absolute blocking machine. She had 100 in just 74 sets for Kenowa Hills this past prep season. She really has a keen eye for the play and uses her 6-foot frame very well to get her hands on a lot of opposing attacks. Porter has a great reach and a great jump and that plays into her offensive attack as well. She’s improving on her finishing ability while adding in some new shots to her arsenal for MVA.
4. Cece Pelak Cece Pelak 5'10" | RS Mattawan | 2023 State MI , Mattawan: Pelak stepped up for Mattawan this past season and was one of the team leaders in kills. Standing 5’10”, Pelak brings a lot of athleticism to the floor. She moves around the court well and can make the difficult plays look easy. She’s got improving passing skills as she plays technically sound defense. When it comes to her hitting, she is able to keep bringing the heat to the net swing after swing.
