There aren’t any big time programs in the Northeast. For a Northeast kid to get recruited to a ranked program he has to be something really special. Pitcher Hunter Owen from South Portland (ME) High is at Vanderbilt. He was at 92 soph year of high school.
Corbin has New England roots. He always seems to have the inside track on the absolute top talent in New England. The year Vanderbilt won it all his #1, #2, closer and cleanup hitter were all from Massachusetts.
Not sure if you are talking about when your kid was recruited, but there are players from the Northeast that are at big time programs these days, including players that are high draft prospects. And UCONN is very good, even beyond very good for a NE program.
