One of the major benefits of doing the Extra Elite 100 rankings is we reach out to well over 100 major club programs to get information and as we do, we find player commits and/or changes we weren’t aware of.
Over the last two weeks, as we researched the 2021 class, that was the case and was a key reason we have triple figures in next updates!
We also hit a major milestone this week, surpassing the 5,000-player mark in our Signing/Verbal database making it the biggest in the softball world!
Check back tomorrow (Thursday) when we’ll run the list of the 100+ new updated verbals and/or club changes of signed and committed players!
This week we have news from programs ranging from Arizona State to Yale and many, many more in-between including Arkansas, Army West Point Auburn, Cal Poly, Central Florida, Florida, George Washington, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Liberty, LSU, Michigan State, Mississippi State, Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma State, Oregon State, Penn State, South Carolina, Syracuse, Tulsa, Virginia and Wisconsin to name a few!
We appreciate all those who let us know about the new commits via Twitter and Facebook… you can forward info through email: [email protected] or tag us @ExtraInningSB.
Here are a just a sampling of the Twitter announcements from the many dozens we received last week…
