Class of 2027 State Ranking New Additions Vol 3

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It is my great pleasure to bring you our first publishing of the Class of 2027 State Ranking List.&nbsp; This series of articles is to introduce them to our readers and every college coach in the country.&nbsp; We have been watching the 2027 class very closely throughout the entire high school and club season. &nbsp;A lot of the analysis has come from watching these players in person and also by watching the amazing footage that has been uploaded to everyone's recruiting profiles.&nbsp; We have been talking to a lot of coaches across the country and this class is littered with college prospects.&nbsp; The following players showed us all that they deserved to be added to the rankings due to their individual performances.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='534306' first='Lyla' last='Crowder']&nbsp;[2027] 6-3 Middle (HS: Frisco Lone Star/Club: [program_tooltip program_id='475085' first='1United' last='']/Verbal: Uncommitted)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":535958,"width":"117px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none","align":"right"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2024/04/Lyla-Crowder-e1714334118333.jpg?w=840" alt="" class="wp-image-535958" style="width:117px;height:auto" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Please officially welcome Miss Crowder to the State Rankings.&nbsp; She is currently ranked as the 7^th best overall prospect in the 2027 Class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings.&nbsp; She plays for Frisco Lone Star High School and also for the [program_tooltip program_id='475085' first='1United' last=''] volleyball club.&nbsp; Lyla wowed me this season as she burst onto the Open level scene.&nbsp; She is a true shut down blocker who gets well over the net during her press.&nbsp; Some of her blocks not only score points but more importantly create so much momentum for her squad.&nbsp; The entire crowd erupts when she denies a would be point scorer with a stuff block.&nbsp; Offensively, she is just as gifted.&nbsp; Her approach to the setter looks like a normal approach and then you see a very electric arm swing that fools most defenders.&nbsp; The speed at which her arm travels downward into the ball is out of this world.&nbsp; In order for a defense to stop her, their blockers must honor her by committing to her approach each time. &nbsp;This can lead to many one on one situations for her pin attackers on her team.&nbsp; In my opinion, she has only begun to develop into a top tier player.&nbsp; We will be watching her continue to grow and you should also.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on earning a spot in our State Ranking List.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='534307' first='Sophee' last='Peterson']&nbsp;[2027] 5-10 Setter (HS: Byron Nelson/Club: [program_tooltip program_id='431308' first='Texas' last='Advantage'] Volleyball/Verbal: Uncommitted)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":535959,"width":"109px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none","align":"right"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2024/04/Sophee-Peterson-e1714334187511.jpg?w=699" alt="" class="wp-image-535959" style="width:109px;height:auto" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Please officially welcome Miss Peterson to the State Rankings.&nbsp; She is currently ranked as the 8^th best overall prospect in the 2027 Class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings. &nbsp;She plays for Byron Nelson High School and also for the [program_tooltip program_id='431308' first='Texas' last='Advantage'] Volleyball club. &nbsp;A true pure setter who has the athleticism and power to push the ball to any zone she wants to from any location is a coach's dream.&nbsp; She is a perfect mesh of power and finesse that leads to some beautiful balls being delivered to her attackers.&nbsp; Just when you thought she was only a setter, she unloads on the ball with some awesome attacks on the right side.&nbsp; There is nothing on the court that she cannot accomplish at a high level.&nbsp; Her volleyball IQ is extremely high and when you match that with her ball control in every aspect, you have one amazing volleyball player that could lead any team to greatness.&nbsp; There is not a doubt in my mind that she will be a top ten player for many years to come.&nbsp; We will enjoy covering her volleyball career and you should take notice now.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on earning a top spot in our State Rankings.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='433665' first='Ryan' last='Spencer'] [2027] 6-0 Outside (HS: Imagine International/Club: Dallas Skyline/Verbal: Uncommitted)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":535960,"width":"111px","height":"auto","sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none","align":"right"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image alignright size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepdig.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2024/04/Ryan-Spencer-e1714334250462.jpg?w=764" alt="" class="wp-image-535960" style="width:111px;height:auto" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Please welcome Miss Spencer officially to the State Rankings.&nbsp; She is currently ranked as the 9^th best overall prospect in the 2027 Class according to our Prep Dig Texas State Rankings.&nbsp; She plays for Imagine International of North Texas High School and also for the Dallas Skyline volleyball club. &nbsp;Ryan is a natural left side attacker who excels in every aspect of the position.&nbsp; She has exceptional ball control both offensively and defensively.&nbsp; Her trademark long and low swooping takeoff approach give everyone notice that she is about to do some damage, so they better watch out.&nbsp; Even with this advanced notice of her attack, they are still not able to stop her as she scores tons of points in a hurry.&nbsp; What I love about her offensive exploits is how she is able to score both from the front row and back row with ease.&nbsp; The opposing defense better have nine players on the court, because with her attacking, they need every spot covered.&nbsp; She has the ball control to be able to change her shot while in mid-air based on what she sees with her court vision.&nbsp; Please help us congratulate her on being named one of the best players in the state of Texas.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As always stay tuned for more articles on your favorite athletes.&nbsp;
