Every recruiting class forms its own inside identity, but the Class of 2028 has distinguished itself through athleticism, versatility, and a rapidly rising national skill level. Using Extra Inning Softball’s evaluation metrics, we analyzed the Top 10 athletes at each position to define the true performance standards for this class. These are the benchmarks college coaches are watching—and the metrics every rising 2028 athlete will stack themselves against.
Below is a full positional breakdown—pitchers, catchers, infielders, and outfielders—summarizing the average statistics from the Top 10 players at each spot. This snapshot reveals exactly what “elite” looked like for the Class of 2028 and where the bar has been set heading into the next phase of recruiting.
