This is pretty much the domino effect from Pride's HS program. The lack of commitments in HS is flowing down to Capital and Stars and players realizing they have a better path to Capital and eventually getting recruited if they move away from Pride.

Very true. None of the Pride HS teams are top tier. These 26 girls probably realized they would move to Capital next year so better to move now to allow for a smoother transition than what the 25 Pride girls went through when they moved.
