2023 Extra Elite 100 Player Rankings to Begin July 13, 2020… Two Weeks From Today!

Kasidi Pickering, a 2023 outfielder, helped Hotshots Premier – Nelson win the 16U title at Top Club National on Sunday, June 27, 2020 and will be a top-ranked player in the 2023 Extra Elite 100 coming out in two weeks.

This past weekend in Oklahoma City, we saw many outstanding players who will be in the 2023 Extra Inning Softball Club Rankings — a lot we knew about and some we just “discovered”– as we get ready to launch the next class in the player rating series.

Note: the next set of rankings after the 2023’s will be the 2024 Extra Elite 100!

The extensive coverage, including player bios and photos, of the 2023 Extra Elite 100 will start Monday, July 13, 2020 and wrap up with the #1 overall prospect to be announced on Friday, July 24, 2020.

Two of the early #1’s in the top 100 rankings came from the Beverly Bandits organization: Miranda Elish (Class of 2016) & Jenna Lilley (2014). This photo was taken by Brentt Eads at the 2015 DeMarini Invitational when Jenna was with the USA Softball Jr. National Team.

The following week—July 27-Aug. 1—will feature the following:

  • a spotlight on the top player in the class,
  • the players ranked #’s 101-500,
  • Class of 2023 position rankings (pitchers, catchers, infielders, outfielders)

This follows the previous Extra Elite 100 rankings published over the last year for the Classes of 2020-through-2025. The 2025 Extra Elite 100 rankings were the most recently published (May, 2020).

The rankings are led by Brentt Eads, Extra Inning Softball’s President & Executive Editor, along with the Extra Inning Softball staff as well as with input from more than 250 college and club scouts and coaches.

Eads, who originated the top 100 rankings lists used in softball, will now have ranked more than a decade of grad classes (2014 to 2025).
