2 commits for '27.

Nealy McCluskey 4-star recruit with offers from major programs (OU, Clemson, Mississippi State, Kentucky, etc,) LH power hitting catcher with near perfect swing.

Lyla Hollingsworth similar talent minus the power also with multiple offers. RH outfielder.

Thank you for the info. Hopefully, they stay committed to LU and not decommit.

Forgot to add Lyla's twin, Emma, left hand hitting infielder also with some power.

Hope there as good as the Bishop twins.

Any feedbacks from the games this fall?

This is Brooke Robert’s 5th season. She played every year. How do LU still have her?

Yes, it’s Brooke Roberts’ 5th season and yes, she’s played every year. LU still has her because JUCO time doesn’t count against the NCAA eligibility clock anymore. Her clock didn’t really start until she entered the NCAA, so those earlier seasons didn’t burn her D1 eligibility.

For someone who’s usually this negative, I would’ve thought an armchair coach like yourself would’ve known this already. But hey—hopefully I’ve dumbed it down enough this time.
