Michigan is deep and talented in all classes in girls high school basketball. We’re going to take a look at the prospects in the class of 2022 that Prep Girls Hoops Michigan has ranked in the key spots just outside the top 100 - 101-105. <img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-181854" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/pgh/uploads/2020/06/PGHFeaturedImage7-300x168.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="168" /> [player_tooltip player_id="147789" first="Maddie" last="Valentine"] (CG, Dexter) Prep Girls Hoops Michigan Ranking: #101 Valentine is a big threat on the perimeter to any opponent. She has a nice looking shooting stroke from behind the arc and really forces the defense to account for her. Valentine is developing a name for herself as a crunch time playmaker. [player_tooltip player_id="147790" first="Mia" last="Steele"] (C, Manchester) Prep Girls Hoops Michigan Ranking: #102 Steele in an underrated post prospect. She may not be the tallest or longest player in the paint, but her toughness makes up for most of that. Steele is as gritty as they come, and trust me, coaches will want her on their side much more than they would want to go against her. [player_tooltip player_id="178882" first="Olivia" last="Brunink"] (PF, Grand Rapids Christian) Prep Girls Hoops Michigan Ranking: #103 Brunink is an absolute steal at this number. She’s a versatile and athletic forward that plays multiple sports. Brunink was an All-Conference player in a tough OK Gold league. [player_tooltip player_id="178873" first="Jamira" last="Shumpert"] (SG, Flint Beecher) Prep Girls Hoops Michigan Ranking: #104 Shumpert is a good old fashioned 2 guard. She prefers the offense to start with her backcourt partner, but will work hard off the ball to get open. Shumpert excels with a pass first point guard that will deliver the ball when she gets free. [player_tooltip player_id="182918" first="Jade" last="Dawson"] (Pf, Midland) Prep Girls Hoops Michigan Ranking: #105 Dawson is better than number 105. She’s a versatile 4 that can handle and pressure a true big. Dawson is an aggressive rebounder that can play through and with contact.
