According to this morning's Richmond Times-Dispatch, Douglas Freeman IF/OF "Macho" Santiago has committed to VCU. I believe he plays summer/fall with Akadema.

If the NCAA ever lets live scouting resume, we might see a commitment frenzy. Was hoping that would happen this fall, but now September is "dark," and who knows if October will survive.

Bryce Vick, 2022 LHP from James River HS and the Va. Cardinals 2022 team, has committed to Stevenson University (in Maryland).
