NCAA 2027 Commits

[cftmoonlight79]

June 15th is here, and so is the time for 2027s! Who is everyone looking forward to seeing, and what predictions do you all have?

 

[MaryClare]

I was not expecting Grebenkova to be the top ranked recruit

 

[cftmoonlight79]

Yes I hadn't heard of her until recently. Very good stuff though!

CGN doesn't really factor in the elites really well. As they only take in level 10 scores.
It's biased against elites.

Claire Pease is the top recruit of this class, regardless of CGN's ratings.
IMO Lia Monica Fontaine is the 2nd best recruit.

Hezly Rivera was ranked 6th in 2026, compared to 1st Presely Duke.

Yes I agree, the elites get low-balled. I assume if you are an elite, you could pretty much go wherever you want.

Last time Claire Pease did level 10 was 2021.

Even amongst the L10s I was a little surprised to see her so high. She doesn’t to me have the polish of the typical top L10.

Also, I’d heard so much stuff about Lia-Monica but hadn’t watched any videos until recently. I was very underwhelmed

Well you are looking at her elite routines.
I can see that power on VT coming in handy. Her bars under NCAA code will score high.
She can scale back some difficulty on beam and floor.
She definitely is someone capable of producing 9.9-10.0 in NCAA.

Pease is still the 3rd ranked so they aren't far off with that one. And it's purely on her vault which is hard to judge given the crunch double she's doing won't be her college vault but they have to judge her off that at this stage.

Oh I don’t doubt that. But it’s one of those situations where I don’t get what everyone is excited about for her turning senior

 

[Sasha]

I think we're excited because she's Canadian, and could be huge for Team Canada. And she's a strong all-arounder. She's not the next coming of Mustafina, but I'm excited to see what she can bring to the team*.

*if she stays healthy, and no I'm not still burned from Zoe Allaire-Bourgie's injury misfortunes, why do you ask?

 

[LT2]

Very Exciting

 

[RichardL]

LMF did well for herself winning the Pan Am floor title. She has good basic technique for double backs which she's used for learning a Silivas, and I guess that's all we can ask for on floor these days.
