Ellery has continued her dominance in the back row. She is so key for Sauk Prairie in the back row, from the service line, and as a leader. Ellery already has 22 aces, 240 digs, 126 service receptions, and 9 assists to start this season. She shows no signs of slowing down and is such a fun and talented athlete to watch.

Ellery is another athlete I have had the opportunity to play numerous times including twice this fall already, once at the state tournament and again at our WI Top 250 Expo. She consistently impresses me no matter if I see her on the court in a State Championship match or next to athletes she has never played with at the Expo. She brings her best game every time she steps on the court. Ellery is a fierce defender in the back row and one of the best liberos in this class. She jumped from 41st to 34th in our updated rankings.

Apel has a great range that allows her to cover a lot of court and make it look really easy. She is a player that is interesting to watch because the 5’8 Libero uses her height and long reach to her advantage. Apel caught my eye with her ability to make covering the deep corners look so easy. She can communicate and read the play with ease while playing solid defense. Apel isn’t afraid to hit the floor in order to give her setters the best ball possible and when you put that together with her competitive mindset and athleticism she will do big things. She has a strong foundation and is going to be an player to watch this winter.
