We continue our ongoing series of celebrating player commits that were announced via Twitter and share the news of where these talented athletes will compete at the collegiate level.
Here are the latest Tweets from high school juniors and seniors who will be living out their dreams of playing at the next level.
This week we have more than 100 new announcements so we’re breaking them into two posts—Part 1 is today and Part 2 will be tomorrow (Monday)!
In today’s happy verbal group we have nationwide news from West to East—Hawaii to Maryland—and cover conferences ranging from the ACC, Big Ten and SEC to the Patriot and Summit Leagues.
Big thanks to Extra Inning Softball’s Carlos Arias for compiling these lists!
If you’d like to send us verbal commits you see, please forward to our [email protected] email.
Also, feel free to complete our “I Committed” page too; it may turn into an article as many have!
