Top 5 Players in the 2028 Rankings

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2028 Rankings are here and we have over 100 players ranked. We are going to take a look at the top 5 and what makes them so special. The top 10 specifically was extremely tough to rank.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A few things to keep in mind: There are roughly 700 kids just in this class. We can not physically see every single player. We do our best to watch and evaluate as many as we possibly can. We also use info from your coach, AES, and such to attempt to be as accurate as possible. If something like school, or position is listed incorrectly, please just let us know and we will happily correct it.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ways that rankings and articles can be leveraged to help the players in your program or you as a player individually. Screenshot the article, rankings, or evaluation that you are included in. Then use that on your personal social media to show potential colleges. This can be valuable as we are an unbiased scout in your recruiting journey.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='534842' first='Sloane' last='Rattay']- Outside Hitter for Peak 15-1 and Stillwater. Sloane is such a solid all around player. She understands the game very well with 3 more years still to go. She has a grown woman approach that helps give her a huge hitting range and plenty of power in her swing. At regionals I got to personally watch her get back on the service line and put on a clinic. She was serving great deep floats, disguise it well and drop in a handful of short serves. The offensive system she is in and players around her really allow her to showcase her talents.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='748675' first='Olivia' last='Carter']- Right Side Hitter for Charge 16UA and Norman. I unfortunately got to watch Olivia smash ball after ball against my school team this past season. She tallied 9 kills and hit a .533 that match alone. She has a ton of power to help spread the offense pin to pin. She possesses an elite level cut back shot as a right handed right side. She also is an elite blocker with her high vertical and disciplined eye progression. She is going to help get Norman up and over the hump this upcoming season!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='740328' first='Blaire' last='Barber']- Outside Hitter for Charge Tulsa 16UA and Jenks. I didn't get to watch Jenks at all last season but kept hearing talk about this [player_tooltip player_id='740328' first='Blaire' last='Barber'] kid. Well the talk was all correct. She is a baller! She can play on either pin and be just as lethal. Her back row digging is also a solid portion of what she brings to the table. She is going to likely shoulder more this upcoming school season but Blaire can do it all and will embrace it!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='752540' first='Nayeli' last='Dragoo-Crawford']- Outside Hitter for Peak 15-1 and Edmond Santa Fe. She is a force in the front row. Nayeli may have the highest ceiling of the group. She has the frame of a big time D1 player. Solid blocker that penetrates the net well with her hands. Has a great touch point, which allows her to swing over the top of smaller blockers. I am very interested in what the next 365 holds in store for this young lady.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='739808' first='Marley' last='Robbins']- Middle Blocker for Charge 15UA and OCS. Again...Unfortunately I got to witness just how good this player is too. She hit a whopping .625 on 8 swings in the state quarterfinals against us. The crazy thing is, she has only gotten better this club season and will be an even more dominating force for OCS this season. I went back and watched the film, she had kills out of both serve receive and in transition. She had kills going both left of the block and right of the block. Marley is a very versatile player that is going to start getting plenty of college attention in the next year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
