Stand Out Players
Abbie Stigler Abbie Stigler MB University School | 2022 State WI – 2022 – Outside Hitter – University School of Milwaukee – Milwaukee Sting 15 White
Stigler is really starting to find her flow. When I had a chance to see her play, her fast arm swings really stood out. Stigler is currently uncommitted and ranked in our 2022 rankings. She is definitely a player we need to watch for moving up in player rankings.
Emily Glembin – 2022 – Outside Hitter – St. Thomas More – Milwaukee Sting 15 Burlington Glembin first found her way onto my radar at the 2018 Joust. She has the ability to dominate on the outside, and with the high level of coaching she is receiving, watch out for her in 2019. Glembin is currently uncommitted.
Elise Gillen Elise Gillen 5'9" | S Slinger | 2022 State WI – Setter – Wisconsin Premier 15 Teal
Gillen is quick on defense in the right back. She also has nice soft hands and a quick release. Gillen is a smooth operator and a smart distributor.
Maddie Connor Maddie Connor S Germantown | 2022 State WI – 2022 – Setter – Germantown – Milwaukee Sting 15 Silver
Connor is a setter for a very loud and confident 15 Silver team. She did a great job getting her middles involved and placing the ball so her hitters could score on the line. Connor helped 15 Silver to a 5-2 record on the weekend. She is currently unranked in our 2022 player rankings, but watch for that to change!
Taylor Larson Taylor Larson 5'6" | OH Menomonee Falls | 2022 State WI – 2022 – 5’6 – Outside Hitter – Menomonee Falls – WI Premier 15 Teal
15 Teal has found a lot of success this season so far. Larson has led this squad with her dominant attacking on the outside. She’s an uncommitted outside that is solid in serve-receive and hits a hard line. Larson can also pound the split, make smart roll shots, and has great placement. Don’t count her out when she rotates.
