3/30 It's been a while since we've re-examined our rankings, and we've found that after the top-3, there are a lot similar, evenly talented teams. Expect the spring and summer seasons to cause movement within the rankings as some athletes start to separate their teams from the pack.
2/2 Auburn added its 3rd commit in international golfer Zara Anand, who currently is a top-500 WAGR ranked player.
12/27 There have been many international commitments in the past month that have shaken up the rankings. Wake Forest moves up to 6th with the addition of Havana Torstennson. Georgia enters the top-10 in 7th with two JGS top-30 recruits in Trinity Beth and Isabel Emanuels, and they also add intrenational recruit Liv Krol Andersen. South Carolina enters the top-10 in 8th with two international recruits, Yana Beeli and Amelia Harris. Harris is currently the highest ranked international committed player in this class.
11/19: Arkansas slides into the to-10 with the commitment of Emerie Schartz, a top-25 recruit on JGS. She will join Melliyal Schmitt in the current class of two.
