As we head into a quiet period (Aug. 21 to Sept. 14) on the recruiting calendar for NCAA Division 1 baseball, we take a look at the ever-growing list of college commitments by high school players in the Class of 2024.
Just in the three-week contact period from Aug. 1 to 20, 40 New England prospects committed to college programs. Most recent commitments came from D1 prospects, although there's been a steady stream of D3 commitments in the last week.
Whether it’s through prep/high school or the travel ranks, New Englanders are routinely bound for some of the nation’s top college baseball programs. Many stay within the region, but the point remains: The college baseball ranks – across all three divisions – are chock-full of local players.
To get insight into what’s coming, we have a running database of all college-bound players from New England. Players, parents and coaches are welcome to submit updates. If doing so, please send all additions to dguttenplan@baseballjournal.com and include the following: name, hometown, position, college, high school, class year, and club team.
