Haven’t seen too much action of her this summer. At this late stage in the '22 recruiting cycle, it's a little late to add a top level player to replace Inscoe, especially a pitcher. Not sure where she stood in ranking all pitchers or how she did this summer to hurt/help her ranking. Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jad0003 408 Posted August 10, 2021 Author Share Posted August 10, 2021 (edited) Inscoe’s team came in 2nd at PGF in the 16U age division. I’m not sure how she performed, but I don’t think she is the team’s ace. Emmah Rolfe is still committed and played for Georgia Impact at the 18u division, but I think she was probably the third option pitching behind 2021 Florida signee Lexie Delbrey and 2022 uncommitted Taylor Tinsley. Don’t quote me on this, but I think both are top 3 pitchers in their class whereas Emmah might be a top 5 pitcher who can also hit really well. No insight on Tinsley’s recruitment or if she even visited Auburn. It seems she has options though since she is holding out this long.

Again, I don’t know if she has visited Auburn, but she would be the top player in our class per ExtraInnings (#4 player, #1 pitcher). Their assessment says she relies on spin and location rather than speed (low 60s) and has an effective change-up from the right side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LetsGo 31 Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Taylor Tinsley would be a great pickup for us. I don't believe Inscoe was a part of the run at PGF. I heard she struggled with location and was hit hard. I heard she is now with a travel ball team called Orion Hunter Elite. I'm not familiar with that team/organization. Wish her best of luck. Rolfe is a good pitcher. She can hit 70 at times and is learning how to be an elite spin pitcher. By the time she gets to Auburn she will be elite. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blakem 296 Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 We just lost another verbal from outfielder Jenna Nelson. She committed to Penn State. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jad0003 408 Posted August 26, 2021 Author Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) I can’t say I know how good Inscoe or Nelson are as players, but they were our two lowest rated recruits by ExtraInnings. These losses might be a scholarship management play for the existing players or making room for a transfer / additional recruit. Roberts, Rolfe, Elkins, and Milanowski are all solids players though, so it is still a good class. Edited August 27, 2021 by Jad0003 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they are opening money up with September 1st right around the corner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think she wanted a better guarantee of starting too. Penn St had a 7-34 record this year, so she probably has a better opportunity with them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blakem 296 Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Madison Inscoe is now committed to NC State. I’m gonna say that maybe these decommits have been more on our end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m gonna say that maybe these decommits have been more on our end. EIS recently published an article about Inscoe’s decision to change her commitment and club team. It mentions she wants to stay closer to home, but I have to agree with you @blakem . The timing of both these changes and the schools chosen suggests otherwise. In other news, today is September 1st, which is the first day 2023 recruits can be contacted. There were a few commitments in this class before rule changes, but we will probably see some movement. Auburn had one player committed before the change - Kyla Stroud. She plays on GA Impact Lewis 18u - the same team as Rolfe and Milanowski.

Millie Roberts - 3B/C - ranked #7 Skylar Elkins - C/UT - ranked #16 Emmah Rolfe - P/OF - ranked #18 Jenna Lorde - OF - ranked #103 Not sure how firm these commits are or how they will be affected with the extra year of eligibility for current players.

Jad0003 408 Posted September 3, 2021 Author Share Posted September 3, 2021 She would be a great pick up. Do we know if she has been in contact with or visited Auburn? For the most part I expect Dean to have turned his attention to the 2023 class. Unfortunately the best pitcher in this class, Keegan Rothrock, is committed to Florida. In the Futures All American game she faced 6 batters and struck out 5 after a week at PGF where she pitched her club team to the 2nd place.

I presume she’s been contacted since September 1st so it’s good that she’s sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jad0003 408 Posted September 8, 2021 Author Share Posted September 8, 2021 Wish we were playing a Division 1 team or two, but I know scheduling for fall ball is not always easy. Hopefully they will live stream a few games too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
