2016 Summer Collegiate Baseball Content:
Perfect Game/Rawlings Player of the Year: Bret Boswell (Texas)
Perfect Game/Rawlings Team of the Year: Yarmouth-Dennis Red Sox (Cape Cod League)


With another season of summer collegiate baseball behind us it's time to look at some of the standouts from the numerous leagues scattered across the country. As with every year, it's no easy task whittling down the names, as there are a lot more deserving players that didn't make the cut.

There are three 2016 Perfect Game/Rawlings Summer Collegiate All-America teams listed below as well as an Honorable Mention squad. In addition to one player at each infield position (including catcher) each team also has a designated hitter – which is a way to recognize some of the better hitters that otherwise may have missed the cut – three outfielders, five starters, two relievers and two utility players.


Similar to past years the Cape Cod League led the way with the number of players listed with 11 players making the three All-America teams and the honorable mention list, although only one of those was recognized on the first team. The Northwoods League led the way with four first-teamers and followed the Cape with nine total Summer Collegiate All-Americans. The leagues that follow include the Coastal Plain (6), California (4), West Coast (4), Texas (4), Perfect Game (3), Prospect (3), Great Lakes (3), Hamptons (3), Golden State (3), Jayhawk (2), Atlantic (2), Cal Ripken (2) and Valley (2) leagues.  The New England, Alaska, Futures, Florida, New York, Southern and South Florida collegiate leagues all had one each.

Perfect Game will start to unveil the league-by-league top prospect lists in the coming days. Once the lists are released, the corresponding league reports will follow.

‘28 OF Nick Morrow (OH) has now homered in three straight games.. 8-for-14, 3 HRs, 11 RBIs & 1.929 OPS🔥 #D1Champ @Nick_Morrow18 @OhioHeat2028 https://t.co/Swl0eHXRB3 pic.twitter.com/NIMGf1och2 — Jordan Gates (@JGatesPG) July 24, 2026 Nick Morrow (2028, Liberty Township, Ohio) took home MVP honors after a blistering week at the plate. Morrow collected nine hits in the 21 at-bats, driving in 12 runs, and at one point had a three-game home run streak. It was a good way to end the summer to say the least. It’s a short, direct swing path with good feel for the barrel and bat speed. Morrow creates quality separation and gets good rotation around the front side. Keeps hands tight to the body and creates good leverage with the bat path. At 5-foot-11, 175-pounds, he will continue to gain strength as he is a notable two-sport athlete. Each time at the plate, there was a...

Jacob Ramirez (‘29 TX) all over it again today as he sends this ball into the parking lot for a 2-run 💣! Been seeing it awfully well all week with serious bat speed. Dude can play. #SouthWS https://t.co/rXRRJTbpoZ pic.twitter.com/CpBZklwxnN — Perfect Game Texas (@Texas_PG) July 25, 2026 Jacob Ramirez (2029, Santa Fe, Texas) had one of the strongest showings on the week for Texas Twelve Red Sox helping lead his team to a championship victory while taking home MVP honors. Ramirez was simply put, all over the barrel and worked some of the best at-bats of the tournament. Ramirez is a highly athletic short stop who was a main stay out there while looking the part. He made most plays his way while showing good hands and footwork around the ball with lateral range getting to balls with ease. Athleticism really shined on the dirt throughout the week. In the box, Ramirez finished the...

2026 MLB Draft: Surprises

Tyler Henninger
Article Image
Historic Lack of Arms Early On Going into the draft we knew that the pitching at the very top of the board was going to be light, but we still had 11 arms ranked in the Top-30 of our final board. Jackson Flora separated himself from the pack and looked like a sure-fire Top-5 pick going in and that came true. But following him we saw an all-time historic lack of arms taken. Flora was the only pitcher selected within the first 15 picks, something that has never happened in the history of the draft. There were only three pitchers selected in the Top-20 which is tied for the fewest ever in draft history. Inconsistent performances and a handful of injuries did thin the potential arms at the top of the board and teams clearly valued the bats over the arms early on, but seeing the lack of arms reach a historic low was a surprise. Carson Wiggins Goes 27th Overall The Mets arguably had the most...

Perfect Game Staff

Kase Nickerson (2028, Branford, FL) put together a standout day at the plate for day 1 of BCS. Hit 3 home runs and a double over 2 games and 6 at-bats. Easily the top offensive performance on the day. Ability to consistently get a swing with intent on the baseball stands out.

A physical right-handed hitter with the strength to drive the baseball out to all fields. Hit the home run over the 385 sign in left centerfield. There’s definite future run producing traits here.
