As we approach the midway point of the 2020-2021 season, the first official signing period has already come and gone, and the careers of this Senior class are headed for the homestretch. With that said, there are a number of ladies in our Top-225 who have yet to make a verbal commitment or sign with a given school. Below is a look at ten such players who I feel could be really nice small college additions, along with some brief comments about each of them.
