The Mizuno Sports Performance National Junior Classic is one of the last opportunities to see the nation's top 18s teams in action.

While all the teams competing in the 18 Open division are filled with elite Class of 2017 volleyball players, we're keying in on the underclassmen playing up. These juniors and sophomores have earned their spots on the top 18s teams and will be back for more next year.

Want to see these athletes and more in action this weekend in Aurora, IL? Watch Courts 1-12 from the Great Lakes Center LIVE on May 27-29.

An Iowa State-committed outside hitter, Andersen can bring the heat. The Lake Country Lutheran junior has earned first-team all-state honors the past two years and was named Midwest Classic Conference Player of the Year at the end of the 2016 high school season.

Peyton Kelley

Illini Elite 18 Cardinal, L, 2018

Kelley was a setter for years before moving to the libero position, and the combination of her defensive prowess and setting background made her an extra-attractive recruit for Belmont University, where the Normal Community High School junior committed only a few weeks ago.

Taylor Landfair

Sports Performance 18 Elite, OH/OPP, 2020
