Sagot :

The sentence, "Soon, a loud buzzer sounded, and the players ran onto the court" possesses a misplaced modifier. The word "soon" is out of place and distorts the meaning of the sentence. It creates an awkward entrance to the sentence without any real meaning, indicating that it is indeed a misplaced modifier.
