Isabelle Busignani Isabelle Busignani 6'1" | OH Marian | 2025 State #73 Nation MI (2025) | 6’1 OH | Michigan Elite
Isabelle Busignani Isabelle Busignani 6'1" | OH Marian | 2025 State #73 Nation MI has what it takes to be one of the best players in the country. A very skilled six-rotation player, Busignani’s play is reminiscent of a young Megan Courtney. She can pass at a high level and she can soar through the air. Busignani took on a huge load at Rock N Rumble and will be key for Michigan Elite all season long.
It’s the battle of Elite’s in the opener for 15 Open gold!!

Gabriella DiVita (2026) | 6’1 OH | Legacy
She’s not even in high school yet, and Gabriella DiVita is playing years ahead of her age. DiVita wasn’t just competing in the 15 Open, but she was dominating. She was large and in charge. DiVita has a great arm on her that knew how to score. Her hits came with a lot of velocity and were moved around all over the court.
Madison Smith (2025) | 6’0 OH | Metro VBC
Metro VBC has a lot of talent in this 15s roster that can do some damage. Madison Smith is one of the big guns on the squad and there’s a lot of smoke around her attack. Smith has a high contact point that led to a very efficient offensive outing. Her reception game was also worthy to note.
Mariah Gaines (2025) | 5’10 OH | Ohio Premier
This squad could really shake things up in this age group. Ohio Premier has a lot of good on their side of the net and Mariah Gaines is one of the best. Gaines was flying high and taking cracks at the ball all weekend long. She has a knack for finding the top of the ball and muscling it through the toughest of defenses.
Breanna David (2025) | 5’7 OH | Five:1
Five:1 would have had a rough opening weekend if it weren’t for Breanna David. David was a shining star for this squad for lots of reasons. She carries a huge load, on offense, defense and reception, and she carries it with pride. Quick to the ball and quick in her shot selection, David was putting the ball in great spaces.
Anna Powell Anna Powell 6'1" | OH Sacred Heart | 2025 State KY (2025) | 6’0 OH | KIVA
No pin is off-limits for KIVA because they are all so good. Anna Powell Anna Powell 6'1" | OH Sacred Heart | 2025 State KY heads up this impressive trio very well. Powell can do it all and did it well. One of the more refined first contacts amongst the group, Powell had a very strong, driving serve and a formidable reception game. This was key in KIVA’s success and led to many scoring opportunities.
Emma Barnett Emma Barnett OH Assumption | 2025 State KY (2025) | 5’9 OH | KIVA
There is nothing small about Emma Barnett Emma Barnett OH Assumption | 2025 State KY ’s game. She plays the game big and loud. Barnett was one of the more exciting attackers to watch in Cleveland. A big approach and a huge jump, kid can get up! Her cannon of an arm was ruthless and caused quite the rumble.
Bailey Blair Bailey Blair 6'0" | MB Assumption | 2025 State KY (2025) | 5’11 OPP/MB | KIVA
Rounding out a killer trio of pins for KIVA is Bailey Blair Bailey Blair 6'0" | MB Assumption | 2025 State KY . Listed as a middle blocker and opposite, Blair was swinging a lot out of the right pin and looked very terminal all weekend. Blair has a heavy arm that can light up any defense that tries to slow her down.

Jada Aksu (2025) | 6’0 OPP | Metro VBC
It’s hard to make a splash when you’re on a team as deep in talent as this one, but man was Jada Aksu making some waves. Another power lefty on the right pin, I have to emphasize the word “power”, this kid was a missile launcher. Aksu had the hot hand all weekend long and an unstoppable cross-body line shot.
Kaylie McIntosh Kaylie McIntosh 6'1" | OH Monroe | 2025 State OH (2025) | 6’0 OPP/OH | Ohio Premier
Right alongside Gaines, these two make for an impressive duo on the pins. Kaylie McIntosh Kaylie McIntosh 6'1" | OH Monroe | 2025 State OH was having herself a time at Rock N Rumble. She’s equipped with a lengthy wingspan and it helped her fly a long ways. McIntosh was a tough attacker to defend not only for her prowess, but her shot selection. Her swings on the right side were jaw-dropping.
Mya Kattula (2025) | 5’7 OPP/S | Unified
Like David, Mya Kattula was doing the most for her squad in Cleveland. A very versatile player, Kattula was doing a little bit of everything at a high level. A lefty on the right pin, she was quite crafty with her shots and found some success. When in the back court, Kattula took over the offense. Great ball placement and steady tempo throughout the tournament.
