I don't have a perfectly updated list for 2025, but here's what I have.  Feel free to add to the list/update the numbers if you have better info.  Stars indicate at least 1 D1 commit:

Metro - 16*
VAE - 11*
Paramount - 10*
MD JRS - 9*
Blue Ridge - 7*
Columbia - 7* (initially listed as 13, couldn't verify)
LEVBC - 6* 
VA JRS - 5*
MOCO - 3*
MVSA - 3*
MOJO - 2
VAVA - 1
Metro North - 1
SRVC - 1

82 players total

[b]I appreciate the hard work that went into this, but when I look at the Columbia 18s roster from Cap Hill on SportWrench, they only have 12 players on the roster and I know at least one who is not playing in college.and another who was a 2026 playing up to 18s. Were there 2025s who were young and played on 17s?  What was the source for the 13 figure?[/b][/quote]

You were right. I double checked from sources other than the club page and the total I could verify was 7.  I updated the above to fix it.  Thanks for the info.[/quote]

The other thing to keep in mind. Some clubs try to be sneaky and take credit for a commitment that took place prior to the player joining their club, which I think is unethical and unfair to the club that the player previously played for. VAE does this on their website (I guess in an attempt to make their 100% college placement rate look more realistic). Metro frequently has players come to their club at 18s who were already committed, and they also appear to take credit on their website for that player's commitment, even though the player committed prior to joining Metro (e.g. the class of 2025 Penn State commit committed before joining Metro; they also list a class of 2025 commit to Virginia Tech when that player committed while playing with another club). If a club is going to list a commitment on their website from a player that committed prior to joining their club, they should at least do so with an asterisk indicating that the player committed prior to joining their club.
