It's time… we're excited to announce that the 8th Hot 100 list will begin three weeks from today as we launch our 2019 Hot 100 player rankings (see the schedule below).

We started with the Class of 2014 which had Jenna Lilley, the star third baseman for Oregon and member of the Jr. National Team, ranked as the overall No. 1 player.

Not a bad looking pick in hindsight as Jenna was one of three finalists for the NCAA Div. I Freshman of the Year (the other two, winner Paige Parker of Oklahoma and Alexis Osorio from Alabama, also made the Hot 100).

Since that initial list, we've done two rankings for the 2015 and '16 classes (we updated both) and, so far, one each for the 2017 and '18 classes.

So on to the 2019 class, which appears to be LOADED with talent, especially at the top, and we're already seeing this freshman crop has franchise players in the circle and behind the plate.

Here is the planned schedule of the two week run when we'll unveil 10 honorees per day:

Mon. January 25: #'s 100-91
Tue. January 26: #'s 90-81
Wed. January 27: #'s 80-71
Thu. January 28: #'s 70-61
Fri. January 29: #'s 60-51

Mon. February 1: #'s 50-41
Tue. February 2: #'s 40-31
Wed. February 3: #'s 30-21
Thu. February 4: #'s 20-11
Fri. February 5: #'s 10-1

We're in the research stage and will be contacting club and college coaches all over the country but if you'd like to nominate your favorite player, please e-mail us at: brentt.eads@flosports.tv.
