I guess you threw the ball to the outfield and ILB scored!

Well how old are the high school sophmore's and freshman that have already verbaled? My guess is 14 or 15. I think there are more than you think
Actually, there are very, very few 14 year olds who verbal to a major softball program (anyone besides Fowler in the past few years?). The first round of early verbals seems to largely be during the summer before the junior year, at least based on what I saw a couple of years ago. Am I wrong?

All verbaled either before the first day of their sophomore year. In fact all had verbaled prior to 16u Nats last summer. All Pac10 schools, which I think meets the major college criteria. And that's just from the Lady Magic team.

Then it looks like the trend toward earlier and earlier verbals continues. I don't believe it was nearly as common as recently as when Fowler verballed. So my info was outdated. My usefullness on this board is clearly, largely over. Waaa.
