Within 15 months, Jack Harrison went from high school soccer player to No. 1 pick in the 2016 MLS SuperDraft. 

Who will be the next player to go from virtual unknown to superstar status?

TopDrawerSoccer offers this list of high school seniors who figure to be impact players as college freshmen. The caveat — these are not Development Academy players. Instead, they played high school soccer and for local club teams or school-based clubs.

Who knows? One of these guys might end up in MLS after a year of college — like Harrison, who kicked off a run of the top three picks in the 2016 SuperDraft who all where non-Academy high school stars before going on to outstanding college careers.

Players are listed with name, position, high school, club, college commitment.
