Since the end of the early signing period, there has been a string of commitments in the class of 2021. Players have been committing to colleges of all different levels and this week brought in a new in-state commit with senior [player_tooltip player_id="20255" first="Taliyah" last="Clark"] choosing Seattle University of the Western Athletic Conference.
[player_tooltip player_id="20255" first="Taliyah" last="Clark"] was regarded as one of the top unsigned seniors in the state following the end of the early signing period, but that title did not last too long as she announced her commitment to the local Division 1 program. At 5’10, Clark possesses a very strong frame that allows her to finish through contact, rebound and launch deep three balls with minimal effort. She has played her club basketball with Tree of Hope for her high school career and reeled in an offer from Seattle U last year. The Redhawks currently roster eight Washington natives and Clark would make a ninth in the 2021-2022 season as all eight current players are underclassmen and will return next season.
With this latest commitment, each of the <em>currently top 16 ranked seniors</em> in the state of Washington are either verbally committed or signed. Below are the conferences that each player will be playing in at the next level.
