2025 rankings update: Which seniors raised their stock?

The Prep Girls Hoops prospect rankings are normally updated every four months or so, but once in awhile something unusual happens that necessitates an adjustment along the way. That's what took place a few weeks back when then top-ranked Aaliyah Crump of Minnetonka announced that she was moving to Florida. That cleared the way for a new #1: [player_tooltip player_id='205298' first='Jordan' last='Ode'] of Maple Grove (pictured above). The Michigan State commit has had an exceptional career to date in high school and AAU and has all of the credentials to deserve the top rating.   When Ode was elevated to #1, that meant a trail of others – every prospect in the top 25 – moved up one spot in the 2025 rankings. Now that it's time for the scheduled triannual update, we have plenty more stock risers to talk about. Here are the Minnesota seniors who have raised their stock the most since the last official update in June.   NOTABLE CHANGES IN THE TOP 25   Positions 1-19 remain the same with Ode at #1, [player_tooltip player_id='252379' first='Addison' last='Mack'] of Minnehaha Academy at #2 and [player_tooltip player_id='296523' first='Kendall' last='McGee'] of Benilde-St. Margaret's, who is coming back after 18 months rehabbing from knee surgery, sitting in the #3 spot. In 4th is recent Harvard commit [player_tooltip player_id='296528' first='Sam' last='Wills'] of Visitation while #5 now belongs to South Dakota recruit [player_tooltip player_id='262910' first='Tori' last='Schlagel'] of Eden Prairie.   There are two changes of note in the Top 25:   <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>[player_tooltip player_id='215457' first='London' last='Harris'] of Hopkins moves up four positions to #19, cracking the Top 20 for the first time. The unsigned combo guard is one of the best defenders in the state, a workhorse who takes pride in shutting down the stars while creating offensive havoc of her own.</li>   <li>[player_tooltip player_id='252380' first='Kendra' last='Harvey'] of Byron also rises four spots to #25. Kenda is a dynamic scorer who averaged nearly 18 points per game as a junior. The crafty guard, who is one of the state's more entertaining performers, is committed to the University of North Dakota in Grand Forks.</li> </ul>   <figure class="wp-block-image size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/10/Ella-Hardwick-crop-4018x2638-1697067499-crop-720x473-1729352804.jpg?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-1049795" /></figure>   BIG MOVERS IN THE TOP 50   #31 – [player_tooltip player_id='453753' first='Lauren' last='Hillesheim'] of Hopkins was a prospect on the rise one season ago, but still relatively unknown on a Royals roster loaded with luminaries. What a difference a year makes! The University of North Dakota commit was ranked #106 last fall, rose to #49 in February, #37 in June and is now at #31.   #32 –  [player_tooltip player_id='453731' first='Haven' last='Fisher'] of Prior Lake is on a roll. The big guard with the bigger motor has evolved into one of the best all-around prospects in the Class of 2025. A physical force at both ends of the court, the Tulsa University signee rises another 19 spots to #32. That's a 52-place improvement in 12 months.   #34 – [player_tooltip player_id='205299' first='Ella' last='Kuhlman'] of North Branch is one of the most consistent performers in the grade. The big guard has improved every year and looks to be an excellent recruit for D2 Concordia-St. Paul of the Northern Sun Conference. Ella rises four more places to #34.   #37 – [player_tooltip player_id='595564' first='Abby' last='John'] of Barnesville has been a standout performer throughout her high school career but was slow to receive the recognition she deserved until later than ideal. That's changed. The MSU-Moorhead commit has now moved up 17 more positions after a terrific summer and is at #37.   #41 – [player_tooltip player_id='595568' first='Ella' last='Hardwick'] of Eden Prairie continues her remarkable ascension by moving up 22 more positions in the 2025 rankings to #41. Eighteen months ago Ella (pictured above) was at #135, but all of her hard work has paid off. Hardwick is committed to D1 LaSalle University in Philadelphia.   <figure class="wp-block-image size-medium"><img src="https://prepgirlshoops.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/4/2023/10/755-Kelsey-Miller-crop-4800x3152-1729352700.jpg?w=300" alt="" class="wp-image-1049794" /></figure>   NOTABLE STOCK RISERS IN THE TOP 100   #56 – [player_tooltip player_id='339221' first='Kelsey' last='Miller'] is a 6'5 post from Chanhassen who has long been coveted for her size. This year it all seemed to come together for Kelsey, a journey that culminated with a commitment to High Point University, a Division 1 program in North Carolina. Miller (pictured above) is a true post who uses her size, strength and length to be a disruptive force. An excellent paint protector and rebounder, Kelsey has plenty of upside at the next level.   #58 – [player_tooltip player_id='550024' first='Chloe' last='Nuss'] is a lengthy guard from Totino-Grace, who has put together a remarkable run over the past 18 months. After a great winter with the Eagles, and a superb summer with the Fury's S40 squad, Nuss received honorable mention status for our PGH Breakout Player of the Year award. After rising 19 places, Chloe is now in the Top 60. Since July of 2023, the D2 University of Mary commit has risen 79 positions.   #72 – [player_tooltip player_id='396429' first='Magi' last='Bjornson'] of Farmington was just starting to put it all together in 2022, performing at a high level that summer and then excelling at the Prep Girls Hoops Expo that fall. Then came a torn ACL and the long journey back to action. The good news is, Magi has made a strong return and recently verballed to Division 2 Upper Iowa University. It is a well-deserved opportunity for a post player who uses her strength and length to protect the rim, scores at the basket, and has nice upside.   #76 – [player_tooltip player_id='550015' first='Alexis' last='Schaefer'] of Chaska is a gifted athlete who has a lot of length and plenty of pace. With the Hawks, she has been kind of overshadowed by a cast of characters that has included a number of strong D1-bound performers, but this year the spotlight should be on her. Alexis takes pride in her defense and has improved substantially over time. The 6-footer also recorded 10 points per game as a junior. She recently verballed to D2 Augustana University in Sioux Falls.   #80 –  [player_tooltip player_id='339121' first='Josie' last='Foster'] is the latest talented prospect in a long line of the same from Caledonia who committed to play scholarship-level basketball next year. The Upper Iowa signee is one of the more versatile performers in the class, a lengthy competitor who excels at both the small forward and shooting guard positions. She has put up impressive numbers in high school averaging over 18 points and nearly 7 rebounds per game as a junior.   #81 – [player_tooltip player_id='396436' first='Elise' last='Groppoli'] of Hill-Murray is one of the most ferocious competitors in the Class of 2025. Elise has overcome a lack of size through sheer will and a commitment to being the best she can be. Groppoli has a well-rounded game. Both quick and fast, Elise handles the ball exceptionally well and can score in multiple ways, averaging over 14 ppg as a junior. She also rebounds her position extremely well, has great court vision and is an excellent distributor. Elise recently verballed to D2 St. Cloud State.

The Prep Girls Hoops prospect rankings are normally updated every four months or so, but once in awhile something unusual happens that necessitates an adjustment along the way. That's what took place a few weeks back when then top-ranked Aaliyah Crump of Minnetonka announced that she was moving to Florida. That cleared the way for a new #1: Jordan Ode Jordan Ode 6'0" | CG Maple Grove | 2025 State MN of Maple Grove (pictured above). The Michigan State commit has had an exceptional career to date in high school and AAU and has all of the credentials to deserve the top rating.
