2020 Hot 100 Rankings
The No. 1 recruiting class belongs to the Seminoles who are at the top of the 2020 rankings with a truly athletically gifted class. Expect this class to be exceptional on offense with Jahni Kerr, Hallie Wacaser, Kalei Harding, Autumn Belviy, Michaela Edenfield, and D’Aun Riga. Combining top-level speed with home run power, this Seminole class will be exciting to watch. Pitching and defense round out their class with spinner Jeya Presad and defensive specialist Carson Saabye.
LSU ushers in the No. 2 recruiting class with eight recruits blending solid middles, power, and versatility. Danieca Coffey, Morgan Smith, Hayden Brown, Presleigh Pilon, Alison Newland, Kennedi Houshmanzadeh, Emari Frazier, and Laney Roos make up their 2020 class.
Arizona Wildcat fans should look forward to seeing this class on the field in the fall of 2021. Recruited from some of the premier clubs in SoCal and Arizona, Mike Candrea and staff selected a tenacious group that could put serious home run numbers. These sluggers are also complemented by a stellar staff in the circle with Devyn Netz and Jessie Fontes.
