As fall settles in and a new school year is underway, our attention remains on uncommitted prospects in the Classes of 2026 and 2027. With these athletes entering their final years of high school, plenty of talented upperclassmen are still available—some overlooked, others quietly flying under the radar—each seeking the right opportunity to compete at the next level.
