Here’s how it works: I’ll pop up a random number generator that includes the 2024 rankings. I’ll generate 10 numbers and the 10 that come up will be the ranking of the player. I’ll then spotlight those players in the article to help give them some more attention.
There’s 130 players ranked in our Class of 2024. Let’s see who has the lucky numbers this month:
41. Aubrey Johnson Aubrey Johnson 6'1" | OH Jenison | 2024 State MI , OH Jenison/FaR Out
The Cornerstone commit is coming off a strong showing last weekend in the Presidents’ Day Challenge, where she helped FaR Out 18 Gold to the 18 Open/Premier title. The 6’1” outside has been a proven asset with her blocking and was somewhat of a go-to arm down the stretch of close sets.
13. Kiley Gallagher Kiley Gallagher 5'5" | DS/L Clarkston | 2024 State MI , DS/L Clarkston/Legacy
An Oakland commit, Gallagher helped lead Clarkston to the Division 1 state semifinals this fall and is building off her outstanding prep play in club season. Gallagher is a great on-court leader, both with her play and her communication. She’s very aware of where the ball is going and can stay a step ahead of opposing hitters.
68. Jasmine Reemsnyder Jasmine Reemsnyder 5'8" | DS/L Mason | 2024 State MI , OH Mason/Attack
Reemsnyder was one of the strongest finishers in the Lansing area this past fall, leading Mason to a regional finals appearance. Reemsnyder played some of her best matches down the stretch, showing she could finish at a high rate from the front and back row. She has consistent pop and shows a lot of awareness to avoid blockers.
128. Delaney Stryjecki Delaney Stryjecki 5'5" | DS/L Dakota | 2024 State MI , DS/L Dakota/Michigan Elite
Stryjecki has a solid serve that she has been able to display at our recent showcases. She hits her targets well and can place the ball in tough locations. She’s also a determined player in the back row, putting in a lot of effort and energy to try and make every dig that comes her way.
104. Braxcynn Baker Braxcynn Baker 5'11" | OH Lowell | 2024 State MI , OH Lowell
Baker was a go-to outside for Lowell in recent years and the multi-sport star was a needed asset. She has a lot of explosiveness off the floor and has a technically smooth swing that allows her to generate a lot of power. Baker also uses her athleticism to make a lot of challenging defensive plays.
18. Avery Weslow Avery Weslow 5'11" | OH Forest Hills Central | 2024 State MI , OH FH Central/FaR Out
Weslow was a player that certainly gave her all for Forest Hills Central. She was the lead hitter over the last two seasons and put up over 1,000 kills between her junior and senior year. She also added over 700 digs. Weslow is a passionate player that desires to be great and is able to take that drive and turn it into a lot of success on the court.
29. Izzy Whittaker Izzy Whittaker 6'1" | OH Grand Haven | 2024 State MI , OH Grand Haven/MVA
A Jacksonville State commit, Whittaker helped lead Grand Haven to a Division 1 quarterfinal appearance in 2023. She really took her game to another level down the stretch of the season, finding another gear for her swing. Whittaker was racking up big kill numbers with her long, athletic swing. Her defense also improved as she polished up her all-around game before jumping into club season.
2. Carley Piercefield Carley Piercefield 5'4" | DS/L Lakewood | 2024 State #90 Nation MI , DS/L Lakewood/FaR Out
One of the top defenders in the state, Piercefield will be heading to Western Michigan next fall. Piercefield has continued to be a dig machine for FaR Out 18 Black this club season. She’s got all the athleticism and instincts you need in a successful libero. Her accuracy with her passing just gets better and better.
49. Abby Mainka Abby Mainka 5'11" | OH Brighton | 2024 State MI , OH Brighton/L2
Mainka was another go-to hitter on this list as she led the way in an explosive Brighton offense. She was able to finish from either pin this past fall and can play at a very fast speed. Mainka makes her attacks look effortless despite the power she produces. Her competitive nature also leads her to making a lot of strong defensive plays and being a strong server.
75. Kate Creighton Kate Creighton 5'5" | DS/L Plymouth Christian | 2024 State MI , DS/L Plymouth Christian
Creighton was the defensive leader of a tough Plymouth Christian team that was among the best in Division 3 this past fall. Creighton showcases great first contact and knows just when to sprawl or dive to get to a ball. She looks laser-focused on the floor and doesn’t get rattled when she can’t dig up a ball. She’s likely to get to it the next time.
