New Jersey Girls Football Roundup: Division I Commits

Firepower at the top end

The clearest theme is end product.

  • Hope Ernst of Ramsey, reportedly headed to Virginia, is listed with 31 goals and 23 assists in 2025.
  • Team-mate Lizzie Rubin, bound for Princeton, is said to have 22 goals and 30 assists this year.
  • Kendall Reid, a Syracuse commit, reportedly has 64 career goals and 33 assists.

That is elite output from one school alone, and it helps explain why New Jersey continues to attract major college programs. Elsewhere, the report says Jordyn Sullivan of Rumson-Fair Haven has 32 goals this season, while Anastasia Showler-Little of Boonton, linked with South Carolina, has piled up 72 career goals.

More than just finishers

The depth looks even better when the list moves beyond centre-forwards.

  • Brianna Concepcion of Elizabeth, reportedly committed to Kansas, is credited with 24 goals and 15 assists in 2025.
  • Paul VI are said to have multiple Division I-bound players, including Hunter Kintzing and Eleanor Lawyer.
  • The report also highlights in-state options, with Rutgers linked to four New Jersey commitments.

That matters. A healthy state scene is not built on one superstar; it is built on layers of quality, and this group appears to offer exactly that.

Goalkeepers give the class real weight

Strong commitment lists often lean heavily toward attackers. This one reportedly does not.

  • Jordyn Bauer of Marlboro, bound for Denver, is listed with 536 career saves.
  • Ania Neveah Lopez-Acuna of Hillsborough is said to have made 222 saves this season.
  • Wynne Ay of Moorestown Friends, reportedly headed to Connecticut, has 179 saves and two shutouts.

That kind of goalkeeping volume points to resilience, consistency and college-ready experience.

As the next high school season approaches, the next storyline is obvious: which of these committed players turns strong résumés into trophy-winning campaigns before making the jump to the college game?
