We continue our look at the UPDATED top 100 players in the 2015 class… we’re spotlighting 10 each day as we countdown from 100 to No. 1. These seniors were chosen based on input and feedback from college and club coaches in the spring and summer following our initial 2015 Hot 100 posted in January, 2014.

Criteria for choosing and ranking the players including performances at the club and high school levels and projecting how they will play at the collegiate level.

Today we feature players No. 60 to 51 with standout players from California (6), Florida, Georgia, Michigan and Ohio.

Check out more of 2015's HOT 100: 100-91, 90-81, 80-71, 70-61

No.	Player	Position	Club	College
60	Abby Lockman	C/3B	Corona Angels	Tennessee
		Abby is the younger sister of Nebraska standout pitcher Emily Lockman, who was a 1st Team All-Region pick this year for the Huskers. Abby was a 1st Team All-State Underclass pick at catcher by CalHiSports.com and can also play first base. She is a .400+ hitter with pop in the bat and helped her high school team win the CIF Southern Section Div. I championship in 2013. The So Cal athlete has been with the Corona Angels since 10U and has won Triple Crown Sports Nationals titles at 14U and 16U.
59	Taylor Rowland	1B	So Cal Athletics Gold	Tennessee
		Taylor is a lefty who can hit for average and pop--she had eight home runs last spring with a .354 batting average -- and on defense she's near perfect: over the last two prep seasons she's had 387 total chances and only two errors for a .995 fielding percentage. She also knows how to help a team win as her last two squads at PGF Nationals have finished third and second, respectively.
58	Kourtney Shaw	P	Firecrackers Rico	Cal
		Kourtney stepped up at PGF Nationals when former ace Tera Blanco was unable to pitch and helped the Firecrackers tie for 7th as she allowed only four hits in her first four games which covered 23 innings. Overall, Kourtney was 3-0 with 17 K's and only five walks in 24 innings. The San Diego area pitcher has great movement on her throws and has an inside-breaking screwball to right-handed hitters which is tough to handle. Kourtney is laser focused with the ball in hand and she's mentally tough, but poised and confident, in the circle.
57	Alexis Mack	2B	Beverly Bandits	South Carolina
		Alexis is rewriting the Ohio high school record book as she's the state's Div. I single season stolen base leader with 57 and is 2nd all-time with 73 hits in a season and 5th in batting average with a .670 mark. She's a back-to-back 1st Team All-State honoree and was a 2nd Team NFCA All-American after leading her team to a 29-3 record. Alexis is the ideal second baseman as she has excellent hands defensively and 2.6 home-to-first speed. In 2013 she helped the Bandits 16U win PGF Nationals and this year helped the 18U Gold team tie for third.
56	Lexi DiEmmanuelle	OF	Gold Coast Hurricanes	Boston College
		Lexi hit .500 last spring going 45-for-90 with 26 steals in 28 games. A great all-around athlete, she's one of the best long-jumpers in Florida and add that leg explosion to her great speed and you have a standout hitter who is aggressive and puts the defenses on their heels. She also has great range and a quick first step from her centerfield position. Lexi was named 1st Team All-State for Classes 8A-7A-6A and will be a four-year starter when she graduates.
55	Shemiah Sanchez	SS	East Cobb Bullets - Schnute	LSU
		Shemiah has led her Georgia high school team into the state playoffs and is used to playing in high pressure situations. Her club teams have finished in the top 5 at the 10U through 16U levels and Shemiah has played internationally with the Puerto Rican Jr. National Team at the Jr. Worlds last year. She was the top hitter on that team and was a finalist to make the Puerto Rico team that played in this year's Worlds in the Netherlands. The Georgia infielder is smooth at the plate and in the field and is college-ready now.
54	Brynne Fitzpatrick	P	Sorcerer Gold	Cal
		Brynne was a 1st Team All-State Underclass pick after going 21-7 with a 0.60 ERA last spring with 381 K's in 186.1 innings. She has a stop-start delivery that makes timing the ball difficult and combine that with a great riseball and you can see why opponents only hit .096 against her. She's also a workhorse as she completed 26-of-27 games she started. Brynne has a great work ethic on the field and in the classroom where she has a 4.1 GPA.
53	Kylie Lundberg	1B	So Cal Athletics Quarles	Oklahoma
		Kylie is one of the most dangerous power-hitters in the 2015 class and can absolutely take over a game, like she did in Boulder when she smashed two home runs in the championship game at the Independence Day Tournament (Louisville 18U) bracket to carry the A's to the win. Kyle is a 6-foot-1 infielder who batted over .500 with 12 HRs in high school last spring and hit .400 with 13 more dingers over the summer. Against elite pitching at PGF Nationals she also hit .444. with a team-leading five RBI.
52	Hailey Hilburn	P	Cal Cruisers	Utah
		Hailey is a tall pitcher who throws in the mid 60's and mixes in a slow screwball to complement her change and outstanding dropball. She had a strong summer including striking out 21 batters in 25.2 innings at PGF Nationals and in the spring she went 20-7 with six shutouts and a 1.39 ERA to earn 2nd Team All-State Underclass honors by Sports.com. Hailey is a big-game pitcher, too, and elevates her game when the stakes are highest.
51	Alex Sobczak	C/3B	Finesse	Michigan
		Alex had a great summer hitting .510 with 11 home runs and a slugging percentage of 1.020 while only striking out five times. She's from the same organization that produced All-American Amanda Chidester and her club coach says she's the best hitter to ever play in the program--very high praise indeed. Alex is one of the top power hitters in the country and earned Michigan 1st Team All-State honors at third base even though pitchers basically didn't pitch to her. As a sophomore her 17 home runs hit was just one off the state record.
