The 2024 recruiting class is loaded with talented players. This summer has been unlike any other summer we have been through but the 2024 class showed out. We have seen a number of 2024 graduates and expect to see a bunch more as we roll into the fall.

Covering six states, New England is a prime area for legit baseball talent and now we would like to bring to you the 2024 Player Rankings.
