Create a Player ProfileEarly 2027 Gold PPV Super Stars
The 2027 class is one I wouldn't wanna mess with. This class is STACKED. There is so much talent at this age group and so many players that I cannot wait to see on a college court soon (do I really have to wait like 4 years to see that? UGH).
Again, a reminder for anyone who's new here… we don't do rankings at VB Adrenaline. You're not going to find a list where I number players 1-???. We are not going to rank players like other sites and other people. What we have at VB Adrenaline and what we believe to be much better is our PPV scale. Our expert analysts give players a PPV value based on their level of play and their potential to play at the collegiate level. There's honestly a whole list of things that make us different (let me know if you want that list) but the PPV is the biggest. A player's PPV can and WILL change throughout their club career. Nobody is stuck in their PPV and nobody SHOULD be! If you ever have questions about PPV check out our site to learn more!
Anyways… Here are a couple of players that are standing out right now! These are our GOLD level players in the 2027 class right now:
Olivia Henry- OH, IMG, PPV 289- She has so much potential and her PPV WILL go up this season. Really long arms wing and great backswing.
Marissa Jones- Setter, A5, PPV 286- WOW. As a setter myself… wow just wow. Jones is one of the best setters if not the best setter in this class and I am continually impressed with her ability to play volleyball at such a high level.
Ireland Real- OH, WAVE, PPV 282- aggressive, but not too aggressive! Moves so well for an OH at this age and of her size. Definitely a top kid
Tessa Larkin- OH, AZ Storm, PPV 280- reaches well. Passes well. Sees block from BR attack really well too.
Nyla Livings- MB, TAV, PPV 274- speed, speed, speed. Quick and UP in the middle!
McKenna McIntosh- OH, Vision, PPV 273- she's big in the front row. Powerful now… cant imagine how much more power she is gonna get in 16’s.
Gemma Hopkins- Libero, Houston Jrs, PPV 272- STUD. She knows how to get down in the back row. I'm continually impressed by her ability to cover as much ground as she does in the BR.
Westley Matavao- OH, Forza 1 North, PPV 270- power last two steps (this is something that can really make a player GREAT in college) Power hitter!
Isabel Incinelli- MB, WPVC, PPV 270- has a ton of height that is bound to help any team. Her armswing is getting quicker and I can see her getting stronger and increasing in PPV this season!
Lauren Forelli- OH, AZ Revolution, PPV 268- fast armswing. Really strong angle hitter. Jumps into the ball well especially out of system.
Carsyn Comer- MB, Munciana, PPV 267- great spacing from the setter. Such a strong swing and will only get better. Plays so high in the plane. SOOO over and in the face of the hitter on her block.
Marlie Smith- Setter, Legacy, PPV 266- Another one of the best setters out there. Such a calm presence on the court and really runs a SMART offense. College coaches should be watching this one… she plays BIG.
Kate Kalczynski- OH, Legacy, PPV 265- part of the STACKED Legacy 16-1’s team. Such a solid OH. Can pass to attack well and will continue to improve on this side of her game this season.
Sophee Peterson- Setter, TAV, PPV 265- I can talk setters all day and I'm feeling repetitive here… another setter that could be one of the best in this class. Reads the game really well and sees the court at an impressive level.
Pulelehua Laikona- Libero, AZ Storm, PPV 265- makes hard plays. Does such a great job getting really hard balls UP! Its hard to be a libero and show highlights of you digging and she shows her range and ability to dig balls all over the place.
Caroline Ward- Oppo, Boiler Juniors, PPV 262- really big blocker. She will continue to climb in PPV with her work in the gym this season. She has a quick arm swing and will keep reaching to make her swing better.
Gentry Barker- OH, TAV, PPV 260- high flier. Reminds me of Chloe Chicoine. She jumps high and hits hard. Has so much power behind her arm swing
