Portal Opens

Posted by Coach on June 8, 2026, 9:05 am

Today is the first official day.

My insight into the portal consists of what I see on X, but holy crap, there are a lot of players. Decent talent at decent schools, I'm not sure how many will actually upgrade their softball experience.

Any local talent?

One source said 207 kids entered the portal in the first hour, which had to be a couple of locals. I hope everyone gets what they want or need. It's supposed to be fun.

Did a quick Google search and this is what came back.

Between 40% and 50% of college softball players who enter the transfer portal do not find a new team or never play college softball again. Of the ~1,600+ players who enter the portal annually, roughly 58% successfully secure a roster spot at a new college, leaving around 42% without a new team
