The Covid classes are a bit of an anomoly driving ages up in this class.
Huge recruit for Fordham. I could be wrong but I doubt it. Soren Jessen is likely the first rostered US Youth National team player to ever sign with the Rams out of high school.
It definitely shows winning breeds more winning.

He flipped from ucla which is a huge win
Glad to see HC Brian Bacharach (Fordham) snagging some west coast kids in Charlie Martin (Bishops/SD Shores) and Soren Jessen (Terra Linds / SHAQ). Two solid pieces right here.

Charlie is a great kid
Yah , I like Charlieā¦tried to get him to UC Irvine
Anecdotally, the table below lists the JO 18U '24 ranked teams alongside the number of recruits (based on the list maintained by Clark ). This list only includes the intersection of D1+Academics (~top 30 schools, top 4+UC+Ivy), excluding Navy.
I tried to answer my question regarding whether recruiting is top-heavy and the impact of club/high school coaches. This analysis is based on just one year, and Iām not sure how accurate the list isāitās just a data point.
The nonscientific conclusions: there is no correlation between JOs (best teams) and recruiting, and the process is not top-heavy but rather highly diversified.

I am confused on what schools this includes? see them at bottom now. so no privates but missed San Jose state
Great analysis. You can sort or filter the data on that sheet by Club )everyone should be able to and it doesnt impact the master). That will show you who is reportedly going from each Club to which college. Can do by HS too.
This could get really interesting when looking over many years. Can see which HS or clubs a college coach is more apt to draw from.
Some examples, only because this subset have larger pools of recruits:
I bet if we looked further back, SHP has been sending players to those same schools many times over the years. Those coaches must like what they get.

Alternatively, here are the list of programs and the number of different HS they have pulled from since 2022. I was afraid this was going to show you had to go to a certain HS to play at a certain college, or level. It doesnāt show that, thankfully.

Similar thing on the girls side, SHP punching way above weight. But disproportionately players have limited impact on the college game. What do all these $HP families have to offer college programs?

Thatās a great pick up for Air Force. Woodroof is a quality D1 utility who plays both ends and has a big upside.
