Assuming most of you on this thread are Stanford women's golf fans, too, a recruiting summary:
In the next class, we've landed Calista Reyes, a 4.15 student from Rancho Bernando High in San Diego who ranks fourth in her class among players expected to attend US colleges.
“I’ve wanted to go there since I was in the fifth grade; it has always been my dream school."
In the class that follows Reyes, we have a commitment from the #1 player, Angelina Ye, from Bradenton Florida by way of Shanghai, China.
And in the 2020 class, we have a commitment from the #2 player, Rachel Heck. Ww have several reasons to suspect we also will land the very celebrated #1, Lucy Li of nearby Redwood Shores. Given Li's intelligence and precocity, I wonder if her parents, who have had Lucy home-schooled, will opt to have her begin college in 2019 instead.
As a semi-foonote, I'd be surprised if we lost Lee or Valenzuela to the pros. Neither are playing at an it's-time-to-go level and both appear to come from families who will push for graduation.
So next year's likely lineup:
1. Andrea Lee, Jr.
2. Ziyi Wang. Soph.
3. Albane Valenzuela, Jr.
4. Mika Liu, Soph.
5. Calista Reyes, Fr.
