#2 Brianna Cantrell Brianna Cantrell OH Appleton North | 2022 State #104 Nation WI – FC Elite 18 Elite – Appleton North – OH
Cantrell burst on to the scene in her Sophomore year at North where she was named FVA Conference Player of the Year as well as 1st Team All State. The 6’0 outside hitter is long, athletic, and has a major upside where her jumping ability allows her to do some special things. A solid passer as well, Cantrell is proving she can score points in any rotation and compete against high level competition.
#7 Adriana Studer Adriana Studer DS/L Lake Country Lutheran | 2022 State #187 Nation WI – Sting 16 Gold – Lake Country Lutheran – L
Studer is not only one of the top liberos in her class, but has had a successful summer on the sand playing with Sting teammate Maleah Howe Maleah Howe OH Oconomowoc | 2022 State #190 Nation WI . Studer has experience with the USA HP program and is accustomed to high-level competition. A high IQ, high character athlete to have on the radar, she will be one college program would be happy to have in their gym.
#9 Madison Tolzman Madison Tolzman 5'8" | OH Arrowhead | 2022 State WI – Sting 16 Gold – Arrowhead – OH
Tolzman is another athlete who had a big breakout year as a Sophomore as a starting outside hitter for Arrowhead, winning a state title in Wisconsin’s largest class. A long athletic pin who is really dynamic with what she can do in the front and back court. She has the ability to go anywhere with her swing to find the open court and score points. Her upside is crazy high and will only continue to rise among the top outsides in the state.
Sydney Lewellin Sydney Lewellin S Lake Mills | 2022 State WI is so money as a setter for @stingvb1988 16 Black. Left handed, can swing, jump set, defend, fun athlete and Sting 16 Black is super gritty as a squad.

#12 Sydney Lewellin Sydney Lewellin S Lake Mills | 2022 State WI – Sting 16 Black – Lake Mills – S
There is something about Lewellin and all of her intangibles because she can do everything. She is a left-handed setter who can also swing on the right side. Her versatility is what sets her apart and is consistently creating positive touches for side of the net. With her skill set, she can be used in so many situations, making such a valuable asset for any team that she is on.
Mary Satori Mary Satori 5'11" | OH Manitowoc Lincoln | 2022 State WI continues to impress on the pin, Class of 2022 outside for @FCEliteVB 16 Navy pic.twitter.com/WiJjV0ICvV

#13 Mary Satori Mary Satori 5'11" | OH Manitowoc Lincoln | 2022 State WI – FC Elite 16 Navy – Manitowoc Lincoln – OH
Absolutely love the passion that Satori plays with. Engaged in every play, plenty of positive body language and has a big arm and no fear when it comes to her swing. She’s played a little in the middle and both pins, but has really solidified herself on the outside. This past club season she was a go to point scorer for FC Elite 16 Navy and will be a key piece to Mantiowoc Lincoln’s season in all rotations.
#14 Madisen Miller Madisen Miller 5'8" | DS/L Appleton North | 2022 State WI – FC Elite 17 Navy – Appleton North – L
Another athlete who plays with a major passion for the game, Miller is extremely solid in serve receive, but can also take pace off a booming swing. With a gritty style and great platform awareness, Miller has been playing up for FC Elite and seeing high level competition. Her game has continued to expand and most recently has been hitting the sand with beach partner, Bri Cantrell.
#17 Riley Hamilton Riley Hamilton 5'10" | OH Hartford | 2022 State WI – Sting 16 Gold – Hartford Union – OH
Long, athletic, six rotation outside who is always able to create positive touches for her side of the net. Hamilton has a high contact point where she can score in a variety of ways whether it is down the line, sharp cross, or a roll over the block. She’s been a key piece in the surge of Hartford Union High Schools rise and a solid player for Sting 16 Gold.
Definitely touching 10 feet Berkeley Mischler is a 2022 middle with major hops and super dynamic pic.twitter.com/vfgBE6Drve

#25 Berkley Mischler Berkley Mischler 6'1" | MB Appleton North | 2022 State WI – FC Elite 16 Navy – Appleton North – MB
Mischler has some major hops and is definitely a middle who can play well above the net. She’s dynamic running a slide, a quick tempo, and is a major defensive presence. Her jumping ability and style of play reminds me of a Kaitlyn Riley Kaitlyn Riley 6'0" | MB Catholic Memorial | 2021 State WI of Catholic Memorial and Milwaukee Sting who is committed to Baylor. Mischler will continue to rise on the radar facing top competition and year round training at Appleton North and FC Elite .
#30 Bella Van Lanen – FC Elite 16 Navy – Appleton North – RS/OH
Van Lanen brings a versatile skills set where she can play any front row position. 6’2, long, and athletic, Van Lanen has the most experience on the right side with a big swing, but has shown promise in any position making her a valuable asset to any team knowing she can put a ball away as well as be a big block from any spot.
#35 Emma Johnson Emma Johnson 5'10" | S Luxemburg-Casco | 2022 State WI – FC Elite Flyers – Luxemburg-Casco – S
Johnson continues to improve each time she takes the court. Great hands and feet, Johnson always puts herself in position to put up a great ball. She can set behind her, just as well as she can set in front, really spreading out the offense.

#38 Josie Johnson Josie Johnson 5'6" | S Waterford | 2022 State WI – Burlington United – Waterford – S
A gritty and scrappy athlete, Johnson is another setter who knows how to compete. With experience playing for Badger Region HP in 2019, Johnson is another one who can dish and also defend in any rotation. The attackers at the summer showcase will look forward to hitting off these top setters across all classes!
