Five 2029 Prospects With Power Four Potential

Almost everyone who has dreams of playing Division 1 softball wants to play at the Power Four level. The Power Four conferences, which include the SEC, Big Ten, Big 12, and ACC, are the top college softball conferences in the country, and are home to the nation's best players.   Below, Prep Softball highlights five prospects from the high school graduating class of 2029 who have Power Four potential.    Molly Anderson is a tall and athletic 2029 prospect from Tennessee, who plays the corner infield positions at first and third base. Standing at 5'11", Anderson uses her length to help her stretch at first base and also to use the power that she possesses from her feet up. She is an intense and vocal leader for both her Battle Ground High School squad and her Atlanta Vipers team. As someone who has already attended multiple college camps and clinics during her young recruiting process, Anderson is positioning herself as a top recruit in her class.     Azlyn Wyatt is a right-handed pitcher and utility player in the 2029 class, who has unmatched energy and a love for competition. A native of Missouri, who plays for St. Elizabeth High School and Iowa Premier 14U National Paz/Carter, Wyatt helped her school team win a state championship during her freshman varsity softball season. We believe that with more playing experience, combined with her drive and work ethic, Wyatt will be set up for a potential path to the Power Four.     A multi-faceted prospect in the 2029 class, Makayla Jamison gets it done in several ways on the softball field. The Mississippi native can operate as a right-handed pitcher, shortstop, and outfielder for her teams, while also serving as a right-handed power hitter at the plate. She carries a 4.1 GPA in the classroom at Olive Branch High School, while also playing on the travel ball circuit for D1Vision 14U National. Jamison was also a USA Softball HPP National Invitee.     Emree Cary, a native of Texas who attends West High School, is a big-time prospect in the 2029 class. A right-handed pitcher, third baseman, and utility player, Cary is a multi-dimensional recruit who can hit and pitch for power, and also possesses a 4.0 GPA. A standout for Hotshots Naudin/Velazquez, Cary was a USA Softball HPP National Invitee in both 2025 and 2026. Her freshman season for West saw her hit for a .466 batting average with 54 hits, 53 RBIs, and seven home runs, while also collecting 200 strikeouts in the circle.     Zion Warford-Cooper is a 2029 right-handed pitcher, who focuses on movement and location. She moves the ball really well and pitches to contact, generating a ton of weak ground balls and pop-ups. She plays up in class at the 16U level, challenging herself against older competition in order to improve her skills and grow her confidence. Warford-Cooper thrives under pressure and remains calm, no matter how big the moment is. Competing for both Carrollton and D1Vision 14U National, she can also play in the outfield and swing a solid bat.
