Ohio Valley All-Tournament Teams

Perfect Game’s new Super25 series took place in the Ohio Valley Region the weekend of June 12-15, with the 17u, 15u and 14u Regionals all taking place. 

In the 17u tournament was held in Dublin, Ohio.  Talented teams like the Cincinnati Baseball Club, the Kentucky Baseball Club, and the Louisville Baseball Club all showed off some series talent, but it was the Illinois Blaze that ended up taking the title.

The All-Tournament Team is full of promising players who should dominate during their senior years of high school.

Notable hitting performances from the tournament included Larkin Hanselman and Luke Johnson from the champion Illinois Blaze.  Hanselman led the tournament in hits (14) and batting average (.560), while Johnson led the tournament in RBI (8) while hitting .500.  JJ Johnson of the Cincinnati Baseball also had a huge weekend, hitting .526 and leading the tournament in slugging (.789).

On the mound, Buck Moore of the Hilliard Cats was the most notable pitcher from the weekend.  He averaged a strikeout per inning while leading the tournament in innings pitched (14).  Hanselman was also effective on the mound, as he allowed only 1 hit and had a WHIP of 0.143 for the weekend.

Below is the full list of All-Tournament teams for the 17u Ohio Valley Regional.

In the 15u tournament, the Huntington Hounds, Columbus Cobras, and Ohio Elite Moss all played well, but the Kentucky Baseball Club ended up with the Regional championship, beating the Cobras 6-3 in the title game. 

The Kentucky Baseball Club went undefeated during the tournament largely due to their excellent starting pitching.  CJ Bush let up just one hit while striking out 7.  Jacob Abbott also struck out 7 in 6 innings on the hill, while Ben Jordan led the tournament in strikeouts with 9.

At the plate, Abbott led the Kentucky Baseball Club on offense with a tournament-best 8 RBI.  The Ohio Elite Moss had the best offense of the tournament, however, with Jason Schutte leading the way.  Schutte slugged 1.000 while hitting .636, while Austin Nester drove in 7 and Sam Wilson and Dimitri Bergados drove in 5 for the Ohio Elite offense.

PG Draft: Jupiter Draft Movers

Tyler Henninger
Article Image
The WWBA World Championship remains one of the premier events on the draft calendar as all 30 major league organizations descend on Jupiter to evaluate some of the top talent in amateur baseball. The event serves as a pivotal checkpoint in the scouting process, giving established prospects an opportunity to further elevate their stock while lesser-known names have a chance to put themselves on the radar of various organizations. This year was no exception, as several players made strong impressions and positioned themselves for increased attention heading into the spring. With that being said, let’s dive into a few draft risers and sleepers who stood out in Jupiter. Calum Andersen (‘27,CAN) had his A stuff working today running the FB to 96 mph with a devastating horizontal SL at 85 mph that can break bats. Mixed in a late breaking 12/6 curveball at 78 mph that induces weak...

Big Offense Wins TBT/FTB Phillies Scout WWBA Freshman Title Runs scoring in every inning led to the TBT/FTB Phillies Scout Team taking home the 2026 PG WWBA Freshman World Championship - winning over Canes National 15U 10-5. It had been a long week in West Palm Beach for the freshmen coming in from around the country to go up against the best of the best. While they had gotten to play on the backfields during the whole tournament, the players who made it to the championship game got to play it in the CACTI Park of the Palm Beaches Stadium. TBT/FTB showed their defensive strength right away - executing quickly to retire each of the first three batters. With the bats in their hands, they also showed speed to deliver - with Luca Briggs batting Trey Vandergriff in for the first run of the game and Kingston George quickly plating Briggs with a double in the next at-bat. In the first at-bat of...

The top player from Georgia and number two player in the country led all performers in home runs (2) and tallied 7 RBIs on his way to a .400 average. The overall profile on Spann is super advanced for the age with electric offensive upside and one of if not the prettiest swing in the class. This will be a fun follow for years to come and I am all in. Carlo Rivero (2031, Apopka, Fla.) checks in as the number one overall player in the class and it’s easy to see why at...

WWBA Freshman Scout Notes: Day 4

Marcus Thomas

WWBA Freshman Scout Notes: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 James Watson (2030, Canton, Ga.) showed the two-way upside to start bracket play for East Cobb Astros 15u. On the mound the right-handed pitcher went three innings and with three strikeouts and spread five hits and two walks for three runs. Watson works from a hybrid windup from the middle-of-the-rubber into a small heel-turn and an around-the-belt leg lift before using drop-and-drive back leg mechanics into a longer, in-line stride down the mound. Showed some feel to get extension down the mound. The hands separate into a moderate arm action before accelerating through from an over-the-top arm angle. The fastball ran up to 86 with arm-side run and life. Paired it with a curveball with 11-5 shape and solid two-plane break. Mixed in a change-up in the upper- 70s with some vertical depth. Competed at the top of the zone well. Athletic...

The right-handed hitter starts from a spread stance with his weight shifted forward and in-line feet with a high handset and an even back elbow, utilizes a heel lift weight transfer trigger. Creates some separation in the back shoulder and uncoils the lower half with a short, direct hand path and extension out front from a slightly uphill bat plane. Good bat speed in the swing with some feel to impact. The catcher has shown the barrel accuracy all event with three hits, including a double and triple, to drive in four RBI and has come around to score five runs. Lean, athletic 5-foot-11, 170-pound frame with feel to generate power working ground up from the back leg. Exciting player that has been swinging a hot stick through pool play.  ...
