ANDREW CORDER

DE LA SALLE

ANDREW CORDER G BRAND PLAYER SERIES Some players score goals. Some players win games. And then there are players like Andrew Corder — athletes who change the entire energy of a program the second they step on the field. Andrew Corder isn’t just one of the best soccer players in the state. He’s one of the most dangerous offensive weapons in Michigan high school soccer, and he’s building a legacy that De La Salle won’t forget. Out of Macomb, Michigan, and representing De La Salle Collegiate, Andrew has become the standard for what elite production, elite confidence, and elite leadership look like. He’s explosive, relentless, and built for big moments. When the pressure rises, he doesn’t disappear — he delivers. Through the 2025 season, Andrew has already put together a career most players can only dream about. He has totaled 71 career goals and 36 assists, and he’s still climbing. In 2025 alone, he exploded for 38 goals and 16 assists, breaking De La Salle’s single-season scoring record after passing the previous mark of 31 goals. That kind of production doesn’t happen by accident. That comes from instinct, discipline, confidence, and a player who knows how to take over a match. And the biggest thing about Andrew? His numbers mean something because they lead to wins. He helped lead De La Salle to back-to-back MHSAA Division 2 State Championships in 2024 and 2025, putting his name at the center of one of the top runs in program history. In the 2025 state final, De La Salle took down previously unbeaten Hudsonville Unity Christian by a score of 2-0 to secure the school’s seventh state title. The team finished the season 21-4-2, outscored opponents 90-22, recorded 14 shutouts, and completely dominated the postseason with a 33-2 goal differential and five clean sheets. That’s championship soccer. And Andrew was right in the middle of it. His individual résumé is loaded: - Macomb County Offensive MVP - 3x MHSAA 1st Team All-State - 2x MHSAA Division 2 Offensive Player of the Year - MHSAA Dream Team selection - Mr. Soccer contender That’s not just recognition. That’s proof. And when one of the most respected coaches in the state says you’re the most dangerous offensive player in Michigan and one of the most dynamic players he’s ever coached, that says everything. Andrew isn’t just producing — he’s separating himself. But what makes his story even stronger is that this isn’t just about stats, awards, or headlines. This is about legacy. Andrew’s father, Steve Corder, won two state championships at De La Salle in the early 1990s under the same head coach, Thaier Mukhtar. Now Andrew is carrying that same winning tradition forward and building a name of his own. That kind of connection to the program matters. That kind of pride matters. And Andrew plays like someone who understands exactly what it means to wear that jersey. He’s team-first. He’s driven. He’s competitive. And he’s wired to win. That mindset is exactly why he belongs in the G Brand Player Series. The G Brand Player Series is built for athletes who do more than put up numbers. It’s for athletes who lead, who compete with purpose, who show up in the biggest moments, and who represent the next level in every way. Andrew Corder checks every box. He has the production. He has the hardware. He has the championship pedigree. And most importantly, he has the mentality. He’s not just chasing goals. He’s chasing greatness. And based on what he’s already done, he’s not far from it. Follow the journey. Watch the legacy grow. Remember the name. Andrew Corder is different.

FOOTBALL

BEN SAVICH

GROSSE POINTE NORTH HIGH SCHOOL

Ben Savich is exactly the kind of athlete the GBrand Player Series was built for. He is not just one of the most recruited kickers in the state — he is the kind of specialist who changes games, flips momentum, and makes people rethink what elite really looks like at his age. The Grosse Pointe North standout has already built a reputation that most players spend years chasing, and he is doing it with range, confidence, and the kind of pressure-proof mentality that separates real weapons from everybody else. Let’s call it what it is — Ben Savich is not some average high school kicker. He is a legit national-level prospect. Public recruiting profiles list him as a 4.5-star kicker through Chris Sailer Kicking, the No. 1 ranked kicker in Michigan in the Class of 2028, and one of the top-ranked kickers in the country. Chris Sailer’s evaluation says he has 50-plus-yard range, hits a clean and accurate ball off the ground, drives strong kickoffs, and competes well under pressure. That is not hype. That is a real evaluation from one of the most respected kicking platforms in the country. And the production backs it up. Savich set the Grosse Pointe North school record with a 53-yard field goal, which is the kind of kick that instantly gets attention because high school players are not supposed to make that look normal. But Ben is not operating on normal. He is operating on a different level. A 53-yarder is not just a cool stat — it is proof of leg strength, confidence, mechanics, and the ability to deliver when the moment gets real. That kind of range changes how coaches think, how defenses respond, and how games get managed. What makes him even more dangerous is how early he is doing all of this. Despite being one of the younger players in the conversation, he is already being talked about as one of the top specialists in his class and one of the most recruited kickers in the state. That does not happen by accident. That happens when talent meets work, and when performance gets too loud to ignore. Ben also proved he belongs on a national stage. In one public feature, he noted that he was invited to the Underclassmen Invitational in Chicago and finished third among 60 top-rated athletes in the country. That is not local hype. That is national-level validation. When you are stacking up against top specialists from all over the country and finishing near the top, you are not just promising — you are already dangerous. And this is why he fits the GBrand Player Series perfectly. The GBrand Player Series is about spotlighting athletes who bring more than just numbers. It is about recognizing players with identity, confidence, toughness, and the kind of mentality that makes them different. Ben Savich fits that standard all day. He is a competitor with elite range, national recognition, and the kind of composure that makes pressure look small. He is the type of player who does not wait for the big moment — he walks into it like he owns it. Grosse Pointe North has a weapon. Michigan has one of the most dangerous young kickers in the state. And anybody still sleeping on Ben Savich better wake up fast, because specialists like this do not stay underrated for long. A GBrand Player Series athlete through and through — and the ones that pass up on him now will regret it later. Quick facts I pulled from public sources: - Grosse Pointe North High School - Kicker/Punter - Class of 2028 - 4.5-star kicker rating - No. 1 ranked kicker in Michigan for his class via Chris Sailer Kicking - top national class ranking via public recruiting profiles - school-record 53-yard field goal - finished 3rd at the Underclassmen Invitational in Chicago against 60 top-rated athletes

BASEBALL

BRODY MATELIC

ALLEN PARK HIGH SCHOOL

Brody Matelic is exactly the kind of athlete the GBrand Player Series was built for. Tough, versatile, battle-tested, and wired to compete, the Allen Park High School standout brings the kind of edge you cannot fake. Committed to Kellogg Community College, Brody is not just a middle infielder with skill. He is a three-sport athlete who has proven he can perform across baseball, football, and hockey — and that kind of background tells you everything you need to know about the way he is built. This is not a one-dimensional player. This is a competitor. In baseball, Brody brings the kind of presence every team needs in the middle of the field. As an infielder, he plays with instincts, toughness, and a natural feel for the game that makes everything around him better. He is the kind of player who handles the routine, embraces the dirty work, and still has the athleticism to make game-changing plays when the pressure rises. He does not need extra noise around him. His game speaks for itself. At the plate, he has shown he can flat-out produce. Public profile references tied to his name highlight a .442 batting average and a .484 on-base percentage, and those numbers make one thing clear — Brody is not giving away at-bats. He puts pressure on defenses, finds ways to get on base, and competes every single trip to the plate. When you get that kind of offensive production from a middle infielder who already brings value defensively, you are talking about a player who impacts winning in a real way. But what makes Brody different — what really makes him savage — is the fact that he is built through more than one sport. He has been a three-sport athlete, competing in baseball, football, and hockey, and that matters. Football builds toughness. Hockey builds grit, balance, and fearlessness. Baseball sharpens discipline, timing, and instincts. Put all three together and you get a player who is physical, mentally tough, and completely comfortable in competitive environments. You get a player who is not rattled by pressure because pressure is normal to him. That three-sport background shows up all over his game. It shows up in the way he competes. It shows up in the way he moves. It shows up in the way he handles contact, adversity, and big moments. Brody plays like someone who has been tested in different arenas and came out sharper every time. He is not soft. He is not passive. He is not out there hoping things go his way. He is out there to make things happen. That is exactly why he fits the GBrand Player Series. The GBrand Player Series is about more than stats. It is about spotlighting athletes who bring identity, toughness, leadership, and the kind of mentality that separates real players from everybody just filling space. Brody Matelic fits that mold perfectly. He is the kind of athlete who brings value in every phase, competes with real edge, and carries himself like somebody who understands what it means to earn everything. Allen Park has a dog in the middle of the field. Kellogg Community College is getting a competitor with versatility, grit, and the kind of multi-sport toughness that cannot be taught. Brody Matelic is not here to blend in. He is here to set the tone, make winning easier, and make sure people remember the name. A GBrand Player Series athlete through and through — and the ones that pass up on him now will regret it later.

BASEBALL

CASH MOCZYDLOWSKY

HURON HIGH SCHOOL

CASH MOCZYDLOWSKY Huron High School | University of Toledo Commit Some players impact the game. Some players take it over. Cash Moczydlowsky is the kind of athlete who can do both. Coming out of Huron High School, Cash has already built a reputation as one of the most dangerous two-way players in the state — the kind of competitor who can dominate on the mound, damage baseballs at the plate, and completely change the energy of a game the second he steps on the field. He is not just talented. He is a problem in every phase of the game. That’s what makes him different. Cash is the kind of athlete championship-level programs chase because he brings value everywhere. On the mound, he’s already proven he can be a weapon. Public reports show that last season he went 7-1 with a save and posted a 1.387 ERA with 50 strikeouts while holding opponents to a .166 batting average. That’s not just good pitching — that’s control, toughness, and the ability to make hitters uncomfortable all game long. He doesn’t just survive on the mound. He attacks. And then there’s what he does at the plate. Cash hit .347 with 10 doubles and 26 RBIs while striking out only three times in 111 plate appearances. Read that again. Three strikeouts in 111 plate appearances. That tells you everything about his feel for the game, his discipline, and how hard he is to beat. He’s not giving away at-bats. He’s not easy to put away. He’s a hitter who competes, puts pressure on defenses, and knows how to produce. That kind of two-way impact is rare. That kind of consistency is dangerous. And he’s still climbing. Cash is already drawing major attention nationally, with public scouting profiles listing him as a strong, athletic right-hander and third baseman with projection, physicality, and real upside. He’s been recognized as one of the top players in Michigan’s 2027 class, and that kind of respect is earned. Players don’t get ranked highly because of hype. They get there because evaluators see real tools, real athleticism, and a real future. Cash has all of it. That’s exactly why his commitment to the University of Toledo is such a major statement. Toledo didn’t just land a good player. They landed a competitor with real edge, real versatility, and a game that can impact winning in multiple ways. Cash brings the kind of profile that serious college programs want — a player who can handle pressure, bring toughness, and continue to develop into something even bigger. That commitment says a lot about where his game is already at, but it also says even more about where it’s going. And the scary part for everybody else? He’s not done. Cash is coming back to Huron with the kind of momentum that can shift an entire season. He already has the production. He already has the commitment. He already has the respect. Now it becomes about taking all of that and turning it into an even bigger statement. Players like Cash don’t settle. They don’t coast. They keep pushing, keep competing, and keep raising the standard. That’s why he belongs in the GBrand Player Series. The GBrand Player Series is built for athletes who bring more than talent. It’s for athletes who bring toughness, identity, leadership, and the kind of presence that people feel. It’s for players who don’t just show up — they leave a mark. Cash Moczydlowsky fits that standard in every way. He’s a two-way beast. He’s battle-tested. He’s committed. And he’s built like the kind of player who can take over a game at any moment. Pitcher. Hitter. Competitor. Difference-maker. Cash Moczydlowsky isn’t just one of the best around — he’s built to be a problem at every level.

BASEBALL

DALLAS TERSKI

DIVINE CHILD

DALLAS TERSKI G BRAND PLAYER SERIES Some players wait for their moment. Some players hope to get noticed. And then there are players like Dallas Terski — athletes who make it impossible to look anywhere else. Out of Dearborn Divine Child, Dallas Terski is the kind of player who brings presence the second he steps on the field. He’s physical, powerful, and built to impact the game in multiple ways. At 6-foot-2 and around 195 pounds, Dallas brings the kind of frame, strength, and athleticism that immediately stands out, but what separates him is how that physical ability translates into real production and real pressure on opponents. He’s not just a name on a roster. He’s a problem. Dallas has built his reputation as a dangerous bat with the ability to change a game with one swing. The ball comes off his bat loud, and when he gets his pitch, he does damage. He’s the type of hitter who puts pressure on defenses, drives momentum into the dugout, and forces teams to pitch differently the second he steps into the box. And the numbers back it up. Dallas led Divine Child in batting average at .432, RBI with 43, while also leading in slugging and hits. He earned 2026 Preseason First Team All-State recognition and established himself as a 3-year varsity player — the kind of résumé that gets real attention for a reason. That kind of production doesn’t happen by accident. That comes from consistency, work, confidence, and a player who knows how to perform when the game speeds up. But Dallas isn’t just a hitter with pop. He’s a complete athlete with defensive versatility and arm strength that make him valuable all over the field. As a corner infielder with real athleticism, Dallas has shown the ability to create loud contact, find barrels consistently, and bring strength on the defensive side as well. He’s the kind of player who affects the game with his bat, his presence, and his ability to make plays. And now, that next step is official. Dallas Terski has committed to Western Michigan University to continue his baseball career at the next level — a major statement about the kind of player he is and the level he’s worked to reach. That commitment didn’t come from hype. It came from development, performance, and proving he belongs. That’s what makes Dallas different. He has the size. He has the power. He has the tools. And now he has the college commitment to match it. This is exactly what the G Brand Player Series is built for. The G Brand Player Series is about spotlighting athletes who don’t just play the game — they raise the standard. Athletes who bring production, toughness, confidence, and the kind of edge that separates them from everybody else around them. Dallas Terski fits that mold in every way. He’s strong. He’s skilled. He’s proven. And he’s still climbing. At Divine Child, he’s built a name through performance. At Western Michigan, he’ll get the chance to build even more. Dallas Terski is the kind of athlete who plays with intent, competes with force, and brings real impact every time he steps between the lines. He’s not chasing hype. He’s building it. And he’s just getting started. Follow the journey. Watch the rise. Remember the name. Dallas Terski is different.

DANIEL HAMPTON

HOWELL HIGH SCHOOL

DANIEL HAMPTON Howell High School | Northwood University Commit Some players get noticed because they talk. Some get noticed because they post. And some get noticed because the second they step on the field, you can feel the difference. That’s Daniel Hampton. Coming out of Howell High School, Daniel Hampton has built himself into one of the most dangerous and complete players in the area — a physical, explosive competitor with real production, real presence, and a real future. At 6'2", 215 pounds, Daniel looks like a problem before the game even starts, and once it does, he plays exactly like one. He’s strong, aggressive, athletic, and wired to compete at a level that separates him from the average player. And the numbers back it up. Last season, Daniel hit .427 with a .537 on-base percentage and a .667 slugging percentage, piling up 50 hits, 15 doubles, 2 triples, 3 home runs, 29 RBIs, and 36 runs scored. That’s not just solid production — that’s impact baseball. That’s a player who consistently puts pressure on defenses, drives the ball with authority, gets on base, and creates offense in multiple ways. Daniel isn’t a one-dimensional bat. He’s the kind of hitter who can hurt you with power, hurt you with consistency, and keep showing up all game long. And the scary part? He’s not satisfied. Heading into his senior season, Daniel believes he can raise the bar even higher, with his sights set on hitting .450 with 6 home runs. That tells you everything about his mentality. He’s not coasting off a big year. He’s not comfortable because he already produced. He’s not easing into his final high school season with a college commitment in hand. He’s attacking it. He wants more. More production. More wins. More moments. More pressure. More opportunity to prove he’s one of the guys who can carry a team when it matters most. That edge is what makes him different. Daniel isn’t just chasing personal numbers either. He’s chasing something bigger. He believes Howell can make a real run and get all the way to McLane for the state finals, and that kind of belief matters when it comes from a player who’s expected to lead. Senior seasons are about more than talent. They’re about ownership. They’re about setting the tone. They’re about being the player your team can lean on when the games get tighter, the pressure gets heavier, and the margin for error disappears. Daniel Hampton looks built for exactly that kind of role. And when you look at the public attention around him, it’s easy to see why. Scouting outlets have already highlighted Daniel as a Northwood University commit with an explosive tool set, 100+ exit velocity, big strength, and true athleticism. That’s high-level praise, and it matches the kind of player he is. Daniel has the strength to do damage, the athleticism to impact the game in different ways, and the competitive fire that serious programs want in their locker room. That commitment to Northwood University is another major statement. It shows that his game translates, that his work has been noticed, and that the next level sees exactly what he brings. Northwood is getting more than just a talented baseball player. They’re getting a competitor. A worker. A player with size, production, and upside. A guy who understands that nothing is handed to you and everything worth having has to be earned. But what makes Daniel stand out even more is that there’s more to him than baseball. He plans to study accounting and become a CPA, which says a lot about the kind of discipline and long-term focus he carries. He also plays basketball, loves music, and plays both the piano and clarinet. On top of that, he’s involved in school activities like FCCLA and DECA, showing that he’s not just an athlete — he’s a well-rounded leader with real character, real ambition, and a drive to be great in every area of life. And that lines up perfectly with the way he describes himself: “I am very competitive and love to win in everything I do.” That statement says it all. That’s exactly why Daniel Hampton belongs in the GBrand Player Series. The GBrand Player Series is built for athletes who bring more than talent. It’s for athletes who bring identity, edge, leadership, and a standard. It’s for players who compete with purpose, carry themselves the right way, and know how to impact a game, a team, and a culture. Daniel fits that mold in every way. He has the numbers. He has the frame. He has the commitment. He has the goals. He has the mindset. And heading into his senior season, he looks like the kind of player ready to make even more noise. .427 hitter. Northwood commit. Senior leader. 100+ EV power. Daniel Hampton isn’t chasing average — he’s chasing greatness.

BASEBALL

DRAKE ROA

NOTRE DAME PREP

Drake Roa is the type of player who doesn’t just show up — he changes the entire feel of the game. The second he steps on the field, the energy shifts. He brings toughness, confidence, athleticism, and a level of competitive fire that makes him impossible to ignore. He’s not built to blend in. He’s built to pressure opponents, raise the standard, and make winning baseball look fast, violent, and relentless. He is exactly the kind of athlete that fits GPlayer Series quality — elite, respected, battle-tested, and built to stand out. Not just because of what he does statistically, but because of how he carries himself, how he competes, and how much pressure he puts on the game every time he steps between the lines. GPlayer Series is for athletes who separate themselves, and Drake Roa fits that standard in every way. At 6'2", Roa has the frame and athleticism that jump out immediately, but what makes him dangerous is how complete his game really is. He plays with instincts. He moves with purpose. He competes with edge. Whether it’s the way he attacks on the bases, creates pressure with his speed, makes plays defensively, or delivers at the plate, he impacts the game in ways that force everybody to pay attention. And the production backs every bit of it up. During the 2025 season at Notre Dame Prep, Roa hit .449, establishing himself as one of the most dangerous bats in the lineup. He also led the team in nearly every major offensive category — including batting average, on-base percentage, home runs, stolen bases, runs scored, hits, RBIs, slugging percentage, doubles, and triples. That kind of profile doesn’t belong to a one-dimensional player. That belongs to a dude who can beat you in every possible way. He’s not just a hitter. He’s not just an athlete. He’s not just a runner. He’s a complete weapon. What separates Drake even more is that he brings presence with production. Some players have tools. Some have numbers. Some have energy. Drake Roa brings all of it together. He has the athletic ability to make plays, the speed to create chaos, the instincts to stay a step ahead, and the mentality to compete like every inning matters. That combination is what makes him different. That combination is what makes him dangerous. His résumé already speaks loud: 2025 MHSBCA Dream Team Selection, 2025 First Team All-State, 2024 Honorable Mention All-State, 2024 and 2025 All-Region, 2023, 2024, and 2025 All-District, and a four-time varsity letter winner. He was also named a Notre Dame Prep Dirty Dozen candidate, which says a lot about the respect he’s earned inside his own program. Those honors reflect what shows up on film, in games, and in big moments — a player with real impact and a real edge. That’s exactly why the University of Michigan didn’t just add another name to the class — they landed a competitor who can change momentum, bring intensity, and elevate the room the second he walks in. Roa is the kind of player winning programs want because he doesn’t just have talent — he has force, urgency, and the mindset to make that talent matter. Drake Roa is not just a prospect. He’s a problem. A complete athlete. A relentless competitor. A game-changer with real production and real presence. GPlayer Series quality. Built different. Proven dangerous. And in 2025, he didn’t just perform — he dominated.

EASTON DANOSKY

ALLEN PARK

GBrand Player Series — Welcome + Spotlight Player Spotlight: Easton Danosky (Allen Park HS, MI) — 2027 Welcome to the GBrand Player Series—where we recognize the athletes who live the standard: work ethic, leadership, toughness, and team-first habits. This isn’t about hype. This is about the guys who show up when it’s hard, lead when it matters, and keep climbing when nobody’s watching. Today’s spotlight is Easton Danosky, a 2027 from Allen Park High School (MI)—a high-character, high-motor two-sport athlete with real tools, real production, and an uncommon edge. ________________________________________ Built Different: Versatility + Durability Easton brings rare positional flexibility and does it in roles that demand toughness. On the baseball field, he’s a frontline pitcher and the team’s everyday catcher—an uncommon combination that speaks to durability, preparation, and baseball IQ. In summer ball with Michigan Bulls 16U (Gallagher), he expands that value even further—serving as a primary arm while also holding down shortstop duties. That’s not just versatility. That’s team-first. ________________________________________ Tools That Play Easton’s measurable tools are trending up—and they translate across the field: • 88 mph on the mound • 89 mph across the infield • 91 mph exit velocity • 60%+ ground ball rate this season (efficient, tough to square up) That ground ball rate tells you a lot: pitch movement, command, and the ability to control innings. ________________________________________ Production That Proves It Easton isn’t just projecting—he’s producing. As a sophomore: • 11 bullpen appearances • 1.68 ERA • .213 opponents’ average This season (expanded role): • 3 wins over 17 innings as a starter • 1 save out of the bullpen • 0.412 ERA | 0.941 WHIP | .138 BAA Those numbers reflect what coaches love: command + competitiveness + composure. ________________________________________ Resilience That Separates Him Late in his sophomore season, Easton was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes—and responded the way uncommon athletes do: with maturity, discipline, and a refusal to fold. During districts, he was called in during the 6th with pressure on—man on first, one out. He picked the runner off first, then induced a ground ball on the first pitch to escape the inning. At the time, nobody knew his body had been battling T1D for months. Since then, he’s transformed—adding nearly 40 pounds of strength through disciplined nutrition and committed work in the weight room. The result: a stronger, more durable athlete with even more projection. That’s not talent. That’s fight. ________________________________________ QB Leadership, Same Standard On the football field, Easton is projected to be the starting quarterback for the 2026 season—bringing poise, leadership, and the ability to elevate the people around him. That presence shows up on the baseball field the same way: calm, accountable, and competitive. ________________________________________ The Total Package: Academics + Character Easton checks every box off the field: • 3.9 GPA with AP coursework • Enrolled in a nursing program, on track to earn an associate degree before graduating • All-League All-Academic in both sports • Class President (2027) • National Honor Society member (Allen Park and Taylor Career Center) • Community service leader: hygiene drives, Victory Day, city clean-ups, and youth camps That’s a complete profile—athlete, student, leader. ________________________________________ Why He’s GBrand Player Series Easton Danosky represents what we stand for: toughness, discipline, integrity, and team-first excellence. He understands that championship habits are built when nobody’s watching—and he’s proving it in every arena: field, weight room, classroom, and community. As Tony Dungy said: “Success is uncommon and not to be enjoyed by the common man. I’m looking for uncommon people because we want to be successful.” That standard fits Easton Danosky—and it fits the GBrand Player Series. Welcome to the Series, Easton. We see the work.

HUDSON BRZUSTEWICZ

ORCHARD LAKE ST MARY'S

Hudson Brzustewicz is not just one of the best players in Michigan. He is a problem. A real one. The kind of player who walks on the field and immediately looks like he owns the place. Out of Orchard Lake St. Mary’s and committed to Notre Dame, Hudson has built his name because he does not play small, he does not disappear, and he does not blend in. At 6-foot-3, 210 pounds, Hudson looks like a mismatch before the first pitch is even thrown. Then the game starts, and it gets worse for everybody else. He brings size, strength, athleticism, power, and presence that very few players can match. He is not just physically gifted. He is dangerous. He can change a game with one swing, one barrel, one big defensive play, or one moment where the pressure shifts and everybody knows exactly who caused it. And the numbers back up every bit of it. As a junior, Hudson hit .400 with 12 doubles and 50 RBI while helping power one of the top programs in the country. That is not hype. That is production. That is a player who does damage, drives in runs, and shows up with force every time he steps in the box. Add in the fact that he has been nationally recognized by major scouting outlets and widely viewed as one of the top players in Michigan, and it is easy to see why his name carries real weight. But stats alone do not explain Hudson. What makes him different is the way he plays. There is authority in his game. There is violence in his swing. There is confidence in the way he carries himself. He looks like a guy built for big moments because he is. He is strong, physical, skilled, and flat-out hard to deal with. Pitchers feel him. Defenses feel him. Opponents feel him. This is GPlayer Series quality all the way through. Elite presence. Elite impact. Elite standard. Hudson Brzustewicz is the type of athlete who does not just represent high-level baseball, he reminds everybody what it is supposed to look like. He is not coming to take part. He is coming to take over. Notre Dame did not just land a recruit. They landed one of the baddest players in the state, a high-ceiling weapon from a powerhouse program, and a dude built to make noise at the next level. Hudson Brzustewicz is different, and everybody knows it.

IAN MANESS

HENRY FORD CC

IAN MANESS G BRAND PLAYER SERIES Some players show promise. Some players put up numbers. And then there are players like Ian Maness — the kind of athlete who doesn’t just compete, he takes over games. Out of Dearborn, Michigan, Ian built his name the hard way: by showing up, producing, and dominating from day one. A starting varsity shortstop since his freshman year, Ian didn’t wait for his turn. He earned it early and kept proving why he belonged every single season after that. What makes Ian different is simple: he impacts the game everywhere. On the mound, Ian is the kind of arm every coach wants and every opponent hates seeing. He attacks hitters, fills up the zone, and competes with an edge that separates him from the pack. His senior season numbers were flat-out ridiculous: 59.1 innings pitched, just 26 hits allowed, only 7 earned runs, 94 strikeouts, and a microscopic 0.826 ERA. Opponents hit just .132 against him. That’s not just effective — that’s dominance. And this wasn’t a one-year flash. Over the course of his high school career, Ian logged 216.2 innings, piled up 290 strikeouts, and posted a 1.67 career ERA. He consistently proved he could be the guy, the stopper, the tone-setter, and the competitor you hand the ball to when the game matters most. His fastball has sat in the upper 80s and touched 90 mph, but what really makes him dangerous is the way he competes. He doesn’t just throw — he attacks. But Ian isn’t just a problem on the mound. At the plate, he’s just as dangerous. In his senior season, he hit .372 with a .512 on-base percentage and a .638 slugging percentage, collecting 35 hits, 13 doubles, 3 triples, 2 home runs, and showing elite discipline with 28 walks/HBP compared to just 13 strikeouts. He doesn’t give away at-bats. He puts pressure on defenses. He finds barrels. He creates momentum. That two-way production is exactly why Ian earned the respect he did throughout his high school career. His résumé speaks for itself: - 2x Team MVP - 3x Conference Player of the Year - 1x TBIRD Award Winner - 3x All-League - 3x All-District - 1x All-Region That’s not hype. That’s hardware. Now, Ian is taking that same edge to the next level at Henry Ford College, where he entered the 2026 season ready to make noise for a program coming off a 30-11 record and a conference championship. And early on, he’s already proving he belongs. In his first college action, Ian posted a 1.69 ERA over 21.1 innings with 28 strikeouts and just 4 walks. Same mentality. Same competitor. Bigger stage. That transition says everything you need to know about who he is. Some players need time to adjust. Ian shows up ready. Ready for the moment. Ready for the pressure. Ready to raise the standard. He’s the kind of athlete who brings value in every phase of the game — a true competitor with the tools, production, and mentality to keep climbing. As a pitcher, he commands attention. As a hitter, he changes games. As a player, he represents everything the G Brand Player Series is about: toughness, identity, work ethic, and performance when it matters most. Ian Maness isn’t chasing attention. He’s earning it. And he’s just getting started. Follow the journey. Watch the rise. Remember the name. Ian Maness is built different.

KILEY PHELAN

DAKOTA HIGH SCHOOL

KILEY PHELAN Macomb Dakota and Central Michigan University Commit Some players have good seasons. Some players put up nice numbers. And then there are players like Kiley Phelan — the kind of hitter who walks into the box looking like damage is already on the way. Kiley Phelan is a problem. A standout at Dakota High School and a Central Michigan commit, Kiley has built her name as one of the most dangerous bats in the lineup and one of the toughest competitors in the state. She’s not just talented — she’s productive, confident, and built for big moments. The kind of player who doesn’t wait for the game to come to her. She takes it over. And the numbers back it up. In one dominant stretch early in the season, Kiley was hitting .548 with a ridiculous 1.767 OPS, along with four doubles, five home runs, and 22 RBIs through just 10 games. In a 14-4 win over Richmond, she went 4-for-4 with two doubles, two runs scored, and six RBIs, completely blowing the game open and proving exactly why she’s one of the most feared hitters in the area. That’s not just production. That’s control. That’s power. That’s a hitter who can change the entire game with one swing and keep applying pressure every single at-bat after that. What makes Kiley different is the way she combines confidence with consistency. Dakota head coach Shelby Weeks called her one of the most confident people in everything she does, and that confidence shows up every time she steps on the field. It’s infectious. It lifts the team. It creates energy. And when the moment gets big, Kiley doesn’t back off — she gets louder with her game. She’s the type of player every lineup wants in the middle because she brings more than just power. She brings quality at-bats. She puts the ball in play. She drives runners in. She creates momentum. She’s the hitter who can punish mistakes, handle pressure, and still stay locked in enough to deliver when her team needs it most. But what makes her even more impressive is that her impact doesn’t stop with the bat. As a four-year varsity athlete at Dakota, Kiley has been a cornerstone of the program — a leader, a worker, and a teammate people trust. She leads with empathy, humility, and toughness. She’s been deeply involved in Student Government, Unified Sports, and leadership development, including attending the Women in Sports Leadership Conference twice. That tells you everything you need to know about how serious she is about growth, leadership, and leaving a mark bigger than just stats. She’s the kind of athlete who makes a program better because she brings the full package — production, presence, character, and leadership. Kiley Phelan isn’t just a great softball player. She’s a tone-setter. A run-producer. A leader. A competitor. And a hitter who can absolutely wreck a game. She’s strong. She’s confident. She’s battle-tested. And she’s exactly the kind of athlete who earns respect every time she steps on the field. Kiley Phelan doesn’t need hype to prove she’s different. Her game does that for her. She is everything that #GPlayerSeriesIs

LOGAN RANDALL

HARTLAND HIGH SCHOOL

LOGAN RANDALL Hartland High School | Lansing Community College Commit Some athletes talk about pressure. Some athletes say they want the big moment. Some athletes love posting the work, the grind, the hype, and the image of what they want people to think they are. Then there’s Logan Randall. Logan Randall is the kind of athlete who doesn’t need to say much, because his game already speaks loud enough. He’s built with the kind of toughness, physicality, and competitive edge that championship teams are made of. Coming out of Hartland High School, Logan has already proven he belongs in a different category. He didn’t just compete at a high level — he helped finish the job on the biggest stage in Michigan high school baseball. In 2025, Hartland captured the MHSAA Division 1 State Championship, and Logan Randall was right in the middle of that run. Not on the outside looking in. Not just another name attached to a great team. He was a real part of a championship standard. In the state title run, Logan threw the final four innings and gave up just one run, showing exactly what kind of competitor he is when the pressure gets heavy and the margin for error disappears. That’s the kind of performance that tells you everything. When the game gets tight, when the stakes get real, when everybody in the building knows one pitch can change everything, Logan is the kind of player who stays composed and goes to work. That matters. Because there’s a difference between athletes who look the part and athletes who actually deliver when winning is on the line. Logan Randall delivers. At 6'1" and 225 pounds, Logan brings a powerful frame and a physical presence that immediately stands out. He looks like a force, and he plays like one too. He’s strong, aggressive, and built for the kind of baseball that demands toughness. He’s the type of athlete who can shift momentum, settle a team down, and rise into the moment instead of shrinking from it. That kind of presence can’t be faked, and it definitely can’t be taught. You either have it or you don’t. Logan has it. What makes Logan different is that he represents everything real competitors are supposed to be. He’s not built on flash. He’s built on results. He’s not chasing attention. He’s chasing wins. He’s not interested in being average, and he’s definitely not wired to disappear when the lights get bright. He competes with confidence, carries himself with toughness, and brings the type of edge that every serious program wants in its dugout. Winning a Division 1 state championship in Michigan is not easy. There’s nothing soft about that path. You have to survive pressure, adversity, momentum swings, and teams that are just as hungry as you are. To come through that environment and help close out a championship run says everything about Logan’s makeup. It speaks to his trustworthiness, his poise, and his ability to perform when the game demands real toughness. Those are the traits that separate good players from players people remember. And now, in his senior season, Logan is back with something bigger than defending a title — he’s trying to lead Hartland right back to the top. That’s what makes this next chapter even more dangerous. He’s not coming into this season satisfied with what’s already been done. He’s coming back with championship experience, a college commitment, and the kind of confidence that only gets built through real battles. He knows what it takes to win it all, and now he’s in position to help set the tone again as Hartland chases another deep postseason run. That kind of hunger says everything. A lot of athletes would be comfortable after winning a state title and locking in a college commitment. Logan Randall isn’t built like that. He’s still pushing. Still working. Still chasing more. That’s the mindset of a real competitor — never satisfied, never soft, never done proving it. His commitment to Lansing Community College is another major step in a career that is still climbing. That commitment wasn’t handed to him because of potential alone. It was earned through work, development, and proving that he can compete at a level that demands more. Lansing CC is getting an athlete who understands what winning looks like, what pressure feels like, and what it takes to compete with purpose every single day. They’re getting a player with a championship background, a physical presence, and the kind of mentality that fits college baseball. That’s exactly why Logan Randall belongs in the GBrand Player Series The GBrand Player Series is built for athletes who represent more than stats and more than highlights. It’s for athletes who bring identity, energy, and a standard with them. It’s for athletes who know how to compete, how to lead through action, and how to show up when the moment gets bigger. Logan fits that standard in every way. He’s battle-tested. He’s proven. He’s physical. He’s composed. And most importantly, he’s a winner. There are athletes who play the game, and then there are athletes who leave a mark on it. Logan Randall is the kind of player who leaves a mark. He’s already shown he can compete on one of the biggest stages high school baseball has to offer, and now he’s attacking his senior season with the chance to lead Hartland back into championship contention before taking that same fire, toughness, and winning mentality to Lansing Community College. State champion. College commit. Senior leader. Big-moment competitor. Logan Randall isn’t built for average. He’s built to win.

MALLORY HOOL

ALLEN PARK HIGH SCHOOL

MALLORY HOOL G BRAND PLAYER SERIES Some athletes come from winning programs. Some athletes come from strong bloodlines. And then there are athletes like Mallory Hool — players who take all of that history, all of that pressure, and turn it into something even bigger. Next in the G Brand Player Series is Allen Park’s own Mallory Hool, one of the most dangerous hitters in Michigan high school softball and another major-time Division 1 commit to come out of one of the state’s most respected softball pipelines. Mallory isn’t just carrying a name. She’s building a legacy. At Allen Park, the Hool name already means something. Her sisters Madison, Mia, and Molly all went on to play college softball at Wayne State, and the family standard was already set long before Mallory stepped into the spotlight. Her mom, Melissa Hool (McGue), also played at Madonna, making softball more than just a sport in this family — it’s part of the foundation. But Mallory has never looked like someone trying to live in someone else’s shadow. She looks like someone creating her own lane. Already a multiple-time All-State player and now committed to Oakland University, Mallory has established herself as one of the premier bats in the state. She’s the kind of hitter who changes the game with one swing, one barrel, one big moment. She doesn’t just collect hits — she creates damage. And the production is loud. During the 2025 spring season at Allen Park High School, Mallory put together a monster stat line: 63 hits in 111 at-bats for a .589 average, with 18 doubles, 5 triples, 6 home runs, 51 RBIs, and 35 runs scored. That is elite production by any standard. That is not just consistency. That is control. That is power. That is a hitter completely locked in. And she didn’t stop there. Playing for Finesse 18U Dreher/Peters, Mallory kept producing across the travel circuit as well. 2025 Fall: 18-for-53, .353 average, 4 doubles, 1 triple, 12 RBIs, 9 runs 2025 Summer: 19-for-55, .345 average, 6 doubles, 8 RBIs, 6 runs 2024 Fall: 32-for-72, .444 average, 5 doubles, 1 triple, 2 home runs, 28 RBIs, 17 runs That matters because true high-level players don’t just do it in one jersey. They do it everywhere. High school. Travel ball. Big games. Pressure moments. Mallory keeps producing. And now the next step is official. Mallory Hool is committed to Oakland University to continue her softball career at the Division 1 level — another statement about the level of player she is and the work she’s put in to get there. That commitment didn’t happen because of her last name. It happened because of performance. Because when you hit like that, compete like that, and keep showing up in big moments, people notice. That’s exactly why she belongs in the G Brand Player Series. The G Brand Player Series is built for athletes who do more than wear the uniform. It’s for athletes who raise the standard, who bring toughness, confidence, production, and the kind of mindset that separates them from everyone around them. Mallory Hool fits that in every way. She has the family pedigree. She has the awards. She has the numbers. She has the commitment. And most importantly, she has the game to back all of it up. Now she looks to lead Allen Park to another league title and another deep run in the state tournament, and if her track record says anything, she won’t just be part of that push — she’ll be one of the biggest reasons it happens. Mallory Hool isn’t just next up. She’s already here. Follow the journey. Watch the rise. Remember the name. Mallory Hool is different.

NOAH BANAS

HURON HIGH SCHOOL

NOAH BANAS Some players blend in. Some players wait their turn. And some players step on the field and make it real clear they were never built to be average. Noah Banas is that guy. Out of Huron High School and committed to Saginaw Valley State University, Noah has built a reputation as one of the most complete and dangerous middle infielders in Michigan’s 2026 class. He’s not living off hype. He’s not getting attention because of projections alone. He’s earning it because the game shows you exactly who he is every time he steps between the lines. Ranked No. 54 overall in Michigan’s 2026 class and No. 2 at his position by Prep Baseball, Noah has already separated himself as a player with real tools, real instincts, and real impact. He’s a smooth left-handed hitter with the ability to drive the baseball to both gaps, create pressure on the bases, and control the game with the kind of feel that can’t be taught. He doesn’t just play the game fast — he understands it fast. And that’s what makes him dangerous. Noah is the type of player who affects every inning. If he’s in the box, he’s a problem. If he’s on the bases, he’s a threat. If the ball gets hit his way, the game slows down because he’s that comfortable defensively. He brings the kind of all-around presence that winning teams are built on. Not flashy for the sake of attention — just tough, polished, and always around the action. His left-handed swing is one of the biggest reasons he stands out. It’s smooth, controlled, and built for damage. He has the ability to stay through the baseball, use the whole field, and turn quality swings into extra-base production. He’s not a one-dimensional hitter trying to yank everything. He’s a real hitter — someone who understands timing, barrel control, and how to create pressure every time he steps in. But Noah’s game goes way beyond the bat. Defensively, he brings the kind of confidence and instincts you want in the middle of the field. He moves with purpose, plays under control, and makes the routine look easy while still showing the athleticism to make high-level plays. That’s a big reason evaluators continue to value him so highly. He’s not just talented — he’s dependable. And in big moments, dependable players become game-changers. What separates Noah from a lot of players in his class is that he doesn’t need noise to prove his value. He doesn’t need to overdo anything. He just plays hard, plays smart, and keeps showing why he’s one of the most respected infielders in the state. There’s a difference between players who look good in workouts and players who consistently show up when the game gets real. Noah is the second type — and that matters. He’s the kind of athlete coaches trust because he brings more than tools. He brings feel. He brings pace. He brings edge. He brings the kind of steady confidence that lifts the level of everyone around him. When you have a player who can impact the game offensively, defensively, and on the bases, you’re not talking about a role player. You’re talking about someone who can shift momentum at any moment. That’s Noah Banas. A polished middle infielder. A left-handed bat with real gap power. A player with speed, instincts, and the ability to make winning plays over and over again. A competitor who doesn’t chase attention — he earns it. Noah Banas isn’t coming up. He’s already here. And as his game keeps growing, so does the gap between him and everybody trying to keep up.

REECE PHILLIPS

ALLEN PARK HIGH SCHOOL

Reece Phillips is exactly the kind of athlete the GBrand Player Series was built for. He is not just a talented player putting up numbers — he is a competitor with presence, toughness, and the kind of edge that separates real impact players from everybody else. The Allen Park High School standout represents everything the Player Series is about: performance, confidence, leadership, and the ability to change a game the second he steps on the field. Committed to Northwood University, Phillips has established himself as one of the most dangerous two-way players in the area. At 6-foot, 175 pounds, he brings a strong athletic frame, real left-handed velocity, and the kind of fearless mentality that makes opponents uncomfortable before the game even settles in. He is not built to blend in. He is built to compete, built to pressure teams, and built for moments that demand toughness. On the mound, Reece is a serious problem. He has been up to 88 mph from the left side, and that kind of arm talent immediately changes the way hitters have to approach an at-bat. But the velocity is only part of what makes him dangerous. What really separates him is the way he attacks. He works with confidence, throws with intent, and carries himself like someone who expects to win every matchup. There is no fear in the way he pitches. No hesitation in the way he competes. He brings pressure every inning and forces hitters to deal with him on his terms. That mentality is a huge reason he fits the GBrand Player Series so naturally. This series is about spotlighting athletes who bring more than just stats. It is about highlighting players who compete with purpose, carry themselves the right way, and represent the future of their sport with pride. Reece checks every box. He has the physical tools, but he also has the fire, confidence, and presence that make people pay attention. And his impact does not stop on the mound. Offensively, Phillips has shown he can produce in a big way as well. He hit just under .300 while recording 26 hits, 9 extra-base hits, 23 RBIs, and 8 stolen bases in one season, proving he is more than just a left-handed arm. He is a complete athlete who can affect the game in multiple ways and create problems for opponents from first pitch to final out. That kind of two-way value says everything about his toughness and his commitment to competing at a high level. What makes Reece stand out is that he brings intensity without needing attention. He lets his game speak. He lets his presence do the talking. He is the kind of player teammates trust, coaches believe in, and opponents have to account for every single inning. Whether he is attacking hitters, driving in runs, or creating momentum with his athleticism, he brings a level of edge that fits perfectly with what the GBrand Player Series represents. The GBrand Player Series is about athletes who lead through action, compete with confidence, and wear their identity with pride. Reece Phillips is that kind of athlete. He is tough, skilled, driven, and built for pressure. Allen Park has a player who brings real fire every time he takes the field, and Northwood is getting a competitor who has all the tools to keep rising. Reece Phillips is not here to just be part of the conversation. He is here to make sure people remember his name.
