It's been a long time since we've updated the Hot 100 list for the 2018 class--it was first released in April, 2015--and a lot has changed since then as we've had two summers of club play to watch and evaluate these players.

One thing has held true still a year and a half later: this class is very strong with frontline pitching with standouts like Brooke Vestal (Firecrackers-Rico, Oklahoma), Megan Faraimo (Corona Angels, UCLA) and Montana Fouts (Beverly Bandits, Alabama), just to name a few.

The question will be "Who else has emerged or seen their stock rise (or fall) since then?"

FloSoftball has done seven years of Hot 100 player lists --from the Class of 2014 through 2020 and the 2021 Hot 100 is coming up soon!

The 2018 updated Hot 100 will also be the fourth class which we've updated more than once (the previous three: 2015, '16 and '17).
