[player_tooltip player_id='445123' first='Ava' last='Buddelmeyer'] Buddelmeyer makes a big leap in the rankings following a club season in which she showed dominance at times as an left side attacker. At 6'0, she has length with range and physicality in her arm that suited well for the next level and the work load that outside hitters typically see. The Bowling Green State commit has one more season with Findlay where has been a consistent threat each of her first three varsity seasons with a 3.2 k/s average.   [player_tooltip player_id='176090' first='Melina' last='Schrader'] Schrader has consistently been one of the most productive and successful setters in this class over her prep career. For both her high school team at New Bremen and with her club team at Munciana, she has shown great command of her team's offense and a lot of savvy in her competitiveness and ability to win on the biggest stage. She returns to New Bremen for her senior season as a Dayton commit and just shy of 2,400 total assists for her career.   [player_tooltip player_id='445119' first='Viola' last='Syverson'] Syverson has been one of the most fun athletes in this class to follow given the steady progress she has shown in her development over recent seasons. At 6'4 and touching well over 10', she has continued to find more and more success in using her length and athleticism to be a point scoring threat, including upgrading the quality of her arm swing and contact point. Her jump in the rankings is due to her big gains and the high ceiling she still has as she continues at Upper Arlington this fall high school season.   [player_tooltip player_id='152062' first='Kaylie' last='McIntosh'] The 6'1 McIntosh is committed to Northern Michigan and is certain to continue upgrading her skill set as she moves through her final high school season for Monroe. She had a career best 273 total kills in 2023 to finish in the top-10 in the Southwestern Buckeye League offensively. With a long frame, her ability to both receive and attack has improved with her length and contact point being her biggest asset at the net that helps her contribute on both sides of the ball.   [player_tooltip player_id='289184' first='Lucy' last='Schlotterer'] (*pictured) Committed to Ashland University, the 5'10 Schlotterer was impressive this past club season with [program_tooltip program_id='431829' first='Athlete' last='HQ']. As an outside hitter she is aggressive and uses her athleticism and arm speed to score with good authority. She also has good first-contact tools to contribute well with her passing and defense. She had a career best 455 total kills for Norwalk in 2023, averaging 5.6 k/s. Look for her to do much more of the same in her final varsity season.
