The month of August saw the number of college commitments from high school prospects in the Class of 2024 double.
There are now 182 high school seniors who are committed to playing baseball at the next level. Still more than half of the commitments come from D1 prospects, although there’s been a steady stream of D2 and D3 commitments in the last month.
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.
