Is there a ranking system for HS softball players
Apr 28, 2021, 2:44 PM

Like football/basketball? I haven't seen a ranking for players or stars or whatever? Is there a scouting service that does this and is there a college recruiting team rankings?
V. Cagle is such a stud player and she was committed to Delaware. I was curious what her HS player rankings were just out of curiosity. Was she a diamond in the rough that Rittman found with hard work or was she highly rated but just going to a smaller school.
I have to admit, I never imagined being a follower of Softball, but these girls have fun, they are winners, the enthusiasm is awesome to see so many smiles and ppl having fun and I love the pace of the game.
College baseball has fallen into the same delays as MLB. I can barely stand to watch on TV anymore. Why do batters have to step out of batters box after every pitch, why do they have to tighten their glove straps and take 2-3 swings, why do they knock the dirt out of cleats only to dig into the dirt to fill their cleats again, etc, etc. Every Tiger game I watched this year has been over 3.5hrs. Most softball is right at 2hrs but i have seen some shorter, but most are about 2.25hrs, but the pace is continuous.
Again, I must admit, I have become a fan of our softball and I think we struck a homerun with our coach.
Sorry for my OT rant about my fandom but does anyone have a link to look at HS recruiting and does anyone know how Cagle was ranked? Just trying to learn more about recruiting.
Thanks in advance!

Imagine her & a Bryan Bresee or Trever Lawrence having kids. The kids would be crazy athletic!

I know Flosoftball and PGF do rankings. There are others ,I'll have to look them back up, but yes there are rankings. But if players can't afford to go to these camps and some tournaments they won't get ranked by most.

Thanks, will check them out. I poked around a little and one was a pay for site and another was really High School rankings and not player scouting.
She did play UA travel ball so that has to help get her noticed I would only assume.

model. They don't allow their rankings to be viewed. Rittman signed 7 players to the 2021 class and 2 players are highly ranked in their system.
Brooke McCubbin • RHP/UTL • Locust Grove, Ga. • Locust Grove HS No. 9 prospect overall according to ExtraInningSoftball.com
Maddie Moore • INF • Loomis, Calif. • Del Oro HS No. 19 prospect overall
Aby Vieira • C/UTL • Mission Viejo, Calif. • Mission Viejo HS No. 95 prospect overall
Jadeyn Ruszkowski • INF • Lithia, Fla. • Newsome HS No. 114 prospect overall
Rachel Gibson • RHP • Ringgold, Ga. • Heritage HS No. 154th overall
Grace Hiller • INF • Macon, Ga. • Tattnall Square Academy No. 166 player overall
Haylee Whitesides • UTL/RHP • Duncan, S.C. • Byrnes HS

That is probably the paid for site I referred to above. Thanks for the information.
Can you go to 2020 and see if Cagle was rated highly? She is a force. I think we would be great without her, but her ability to pitch and bat over .400+ this late in season is amazing. We'll soon see how we stack up against other competition because I think we'll host a regional and hopefully a Super this year.
