Alyssa Copley (Holly) – Skilled post prospect with outstanding footwork and a warriors’ mentality, Copley is going “next level” across the border, committing to Cleveland State
Amani Corley (Southgate Anderson) – This “Downriver Dandy” at the point guard position is a lean, mean dime machine as well as being committed to Central Michigan
Asia Doss (Birmingham Detroit Country Day) – The definition of the word dynamic in the backcourt, Doss is committing to Ohio State, where she will take her high-scoring ways and high-IQ on the hardwood to the Big 10 Conference.
Rio Dudgeon (Macomb Dakota) – Steady small forward staying close to home and committing to Oakland University

Marte Grays (Detroit King) – Powerful and poised in the paint, Grays is going to be a Blue Demon, committing to DePaul.

Candace Leatherwood (FH Mercy) – A super smooth and sturdy floor general, Leatherwood committed to Liberty
Maria Liddane (Grosse Pointe North) – Smart playmaker at the point that can pop it from the perimeter if you leave her open, Liddane committed to American University

Micha Robinson (AA Huron) – Spunky and speedy point guard, Robinson is set to play in her backyard at Eastern Michigan
