Any information about freshmen who will/may be coming in for next season? With the seniors departing, a strong recruiting class would be most helpful. (I need to do something while awaiting Super Regional play!)

I would like to know this as well. Are there any good softball recruiting sites like rivals and 247 does for football and basketball?

ESPN doesn't rank softball recruiting anymore but I have to think this would be a top tier class if they did.

Injured. There's a link in this thread I think that shows the 2015 recruits.

the '15 class has 7 players and 3 of them are listed as pitchers and one of them throws 5 pitches including a knuckle she was lexi overstreet's high school teammate...but with 7 players already I don't see them adding anymore to the '15 class

An underhanded knuckleball ? This should at least be on YouTube somewhere. Is her last name Niekro ?

I think someone asked this previously, but is there a site that ranks softball recruiting? Or can someone much more knowledgeable comment on the quality of our '14 and '15 classes.

Both of the classes are ranked in the top 5 in the country

No, they no longer rank softball classes. Our 14, and 15 classes are very good

It's impressive that we already have 15 commitments for the next 3 classes, apparently more than any other program in the country. But it looks like we'll have 2 consecutive classes ('13 & '14) w/o a pitcher, which is surprising.

Our projected pitching staff for the next 2 years:

2014: Ellen Renfroe (SR), Erin Gabriel (SO), Cheyanne Tarango (JR; spot duty)
2015: Gabriel (JR), Tarango (SR), ????

I just can't see Gabriel & Tarango carrying our entire pitching load in '15, not to mention the necessity of their both staying healthy all season.

Are any of the new recruits capable of hitting 30 hrs in a season -- would be nice to get a power hitter like that for a change. The above post is a bit scary if its true.

very few college softball players hit 30 hr's in a season now two of the new girls are capable of hitting 10 plus but they must adjust to college pitching those being Annie Aldrete and Taylor Koenig
