As we ramp up for the next Line Drive HOT 100 rankings, the Class of 2029, it’s fun and interesting to look back to the class when first done–which was in the Spring of last year (2024)

Here’s the wrap-article which has links to all the HOT 100 bios, the complete list of those honored from 1-225 as well as a profile on the top-ranked player, LG Goldin and the 2029 Position Rankings.

In the near future, we’ll profile some of the standouts in this class before we launch the revised 2029 ratings in about 6 weeks from now–on March 24, 2025.

Congratulations to all these athletes—as well as their parents, siblings and coaches at the travel ball and school levels—for having the talent, drive and desire to be one of the very best fastpitch competitors in their class

These are the athletes we feel have the talent and abilities to keep improving, enter and/or stay in the 2029 Line Drive HOT 100 over the next several years. We will update the list multiple times before the 2029 class graduates and transitions to the collegiate level.
