World Series aside, just look at the top 2024 D1 commits from NJ, mostly reclasses[/quote]

I'm not sure that's true. If you include Lawrenceville in the conversation, then yes there are a ton of older kids - many of them PGs from out of state. Schools with PG programs are a different story.

Taking a quick look at the non-Lawrenceville NJ commits on Inside Lacrosse it looks like most of them are on-age . . . but many don't put their birthdates so hard to get the full picture.

Half the D1 kids in NJ come from public schools so have to think most of those kids are not DMV-style holdbacks where they repeated the 8th grade somewhere - difficult to do that in public school.
