Back-to-back classes with two Top 10 pitchers, the No.1 outfielder, of the premier catchers in the country, plus a mix of versatile athletes who can move around the middle infield, corners, and even the outfield.

Molly Davi has risen as one of the sport’s most promising young talents. The standout from Hilo High has already set new records in Hawaii and earned national accolades, positioning her to become one of the most celebrated players in the Class of 2027.

In Houma, Louisiana, Kallie Waalk, a rising sophomore, is setting new standards of excellence at Vandebilt Catholic High School.
