<p><strong>1. [player_tooltip player_id='436889' first='Sophia' last='Smith'], Marian/Legacy: </strong>Smith has been one of the most improved players in this class over recent years. She's grown incredibly confident in all areas and has added a lot of intangibles to her attack while improving a lot defensively. She's committed to Boston College.</p>

<p><strong>2. [player_tooltip player_id='486269' first='Brooke' last='Johnson'], FH Northern/FaR Out: </strong>Johnson has shown she can put the ball away as well as anyone. This fall she hit over .400 and was also very explosive with her blocking and serving. She knows how to put a big pop on the ball.</p>

<p><strong>3. [player_tooltip player_id='442978' first='Eleanor' last='Williams'], Romeo/Michigan Elite: </strong>A hitter/setter combo player, Williams has shown she's got a great all-around game and her versatility is something that many colleges could use. She sees the court very well, able to score consistently while also running a smooth offense.</p>

<p><strong>4. [player_tooltip player_id='442985' first='Josie' last='Seets'], Clarkston/Legacy: </strong>Another player that has shown good growth as a player, Seets made big jumps this fall nearly doubling her kill total while expanding her defensive impact as well. As Seets gains more confidence, she is showing she can play at the next level.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>5. [player_tooltip player_id='845232' first='Avery' last='Bailey'], Midland Dow/Mid-Michigan Aces: </strong>Bailey had a breakout fall, hitting over .350 in a competitive Saginaw Valley League. She's not afraid to be aggressive with her attack lines and she's got a potent follow through that makes her attacks tough to get under.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>6. [player_tooltip player_id='828552' first='Cecilia' last='Murray'], Marian/Michigan Elite: </strong>Murray got a chance to get more reps this fall for a talented Marian team and she came through with some of her best performances late in the season. Her finishing rate was strong against top opponents, which bodes well for next year.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>7. [player_tooltip player_id='523832' first='Charley' last='Romeo'], Northville/L2: </strong>Romeo was a nice complement to the Northville offense this fall as the Mustangs had to get some new faces in the offensive mix. When Romeo got on a roll, it was tough for opponents to slow her down.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>8. [player_tooltip player_id='513767' first='Rachel' last='Johnston'], Adams/High Performance: </strong>Johnston has shown she can play from either end of the net and be a consistent finisher. She adjusts well to the ball and makes the most out of each opportunity, not forcing a power swing when it isn't there.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><strong>9. [player_tooltip player_id='490377' first='Coco' last='Bossardet'], East Grand Rapids: </strong>A 6-foot prospect, Bossardet still has a high ceiling for her play. She can climb the ladder well and work her way through blockers. As she continues to improve on her shot selection, she can be an appealing college prospect.</p>
