More 2027 Recruitments I’m Following

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2027 class may not have the high-end talent of the 2026 and 2028 groups, but there is depth in that class. There are kids in that class who will be successful D2 and D3 players and others who will play at D1 programs around the nation at some point. However, there are a few kids I want to highlight most in that class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='769179' first='Cali' last='Tagliapietra']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Everyone I've talked to in the North Shore area who's ever coached Tagliapietra or coached against her has had nothing but glowing reviews about her, which says a lot about her. She's garnered the respect of opposing North Shore coaches, and it's easy to understand why. The Grafton native is an active kid who competes on the defensive end of the floor and is a kid who can attack off the dribble and get to the basket. There are still things she can work on, like her finishing around the basket, but she's among my favorite North Shore kids to watch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='751258' first='Elle' last='Krull']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Xavier guard has looked solid since her knee injury in the Spring of 2024. Krull looked like a physical and laterally quick defender who could make plays on the ball. Her lateral quickness coming back will help her regain the defensive stature she had in her first season of high school basketball. She'll be a kid who'll be fun to watch as she continues to get her sea legs back after her time out injured.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='814306' first='Devin' last='Larson']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>What makes Larson productive as a lead guard aren't any plays that will be highlight-reel plays. Larson does all the little things well. She plays through traffic, initiates the offense well, breaks the press, is a threat to get downhill, and keeps defenses honest. She's a challenging kid to prepare for because she's comfortable doing anything she's asked.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='751245' first='Avery' last='Glenz']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Eleva-Strum guard/wing led the Cardinals to one of the most remarkable one-season turnarounds I've seen. Glenz was confident this past season and helped turn a five-win team into a team that was a game away from the state tournament. Glenz is a physical kid who can create off the dribble and has shown she can hurt defenses from beyond the three-point line. She took the less popular road and plays for a small AAU team based in Eau Claire, but she's a kid who could surprise people and coaches at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
