TNXL Academy takes 17u PG Super25

SANFORD, Fla. – 14 teams clashed for the 17u PG Super25 National Championship, and on Championship Friday, TNXL Academy came out on top with an 8-6 victory over Mid Atlantic Show 17u-Kerr at the BOOMBAH Sports Complex in Sanford.

Leading 4-3 in the fifth inning, TNXL used a three-run frame spearheaded by Elian Roman (2019, Orlando, Fla.), who lined a two-out RBI single, and Chenar Brown (2019, Clermont, Fla.) plating two more runs with a double to right to provide the cushion needed to withstand a late rally from the Show in the seventh.

With two runs already across and the tying run at the plate, Florida State commit Tyrell Brewer (2019, Orlando, Fla.) locked down the title for TNXL with a strikeout to close out a three-inning stint of relief in support of starter Hylan Hall (2019, Ocoee, Fla.).

TNXL was lifted by six shutout innings by tournament MV-Pitcher Dylan Simmons (2019, Jacksonville, Fla.) to come away with a 2-0 semifinal victory over the Salty Dawgs.

Brown drove in the lone runs in the semifinal with one swing of that bat as his two-run triple in the fourth inning gave Simmons, a Florida State commit, all the support he needed as he allowed just one hit and struck out six.

On the other side of the bracket, the Show used a six-run blitz in the second inning of their 6-4 semifinal victory over Stars Baseball 17U Red that included a three-run home run from Fairleigh Dickinson signee Theodore Sparks (2018, Woodbury, N.J.) to advance to the final.

St. Joesph’s commit Brandon Drapeau (2019, Mullica Hill, N.J.) came an out away from a complete game for the Show in the semifinal, setting up the title game matchup of two teams featuring Division-I commits littered all across both rosters.

In the championship game, it was TNXL who went ahead in the first inning as Roman lined an RBI single to left with two outs.

In the second, TNXL added three more runs as they took advantage of a two-out error that brought in two runs and a wild pitch tacked on another to make it a 4-0 lead.

The Show fought back in the bottom of the third as they plated three runs with Drapeau lining an RBI single, and a bases-loaded walk and a fielder’s choice cutting the margin to just a run at 4-3.

After TNXL’s three-run fifth, with again all of its run coming with two outs, the Show put a rally together as three straight hits opened the home half. UNC-Charlotte commit Chase Burroughs (2019, Mechanicsville, Md.) doubled to left to open the frame and came in to score on a Zach Fisher (2018, Hancocks Bridge, N.J.) single up the middle.

TNXL got great work out of Brewer, who came on for the starter Hall in the fifth, as the right-hander retired the next three batters to send the game to the sixth with a 7-4 lead for TNXL.

Hall, a Florida commit, produced an insurance run in the seventh as his two-out triple to right kept the inning alive and he was able to race home on a ball in the dirt to make it an 8-4 game with TNXL needing three more outs.

The Show were gifted back-to-back walks to start the seventh, and Drapeau again came up with a run-scoring hit as he doubled to left to make it 8-5.

After a groundout plated another run, another walk issued by Brewer brought the potential winning run to the plate with just one out. The Show tried to get their trail runner into scoring position on a steal attempt, but TNXL catcher Douglas Kirkland (2019, Longwood, Fla.) gunned down the would-be base stealer for the second out and Brewer wrapped up the game with his fourth strikeout in relief to cap TNXL’s title run.

Brown was selected as the tournament MV-Player as he finished with a .500 average (10-for-20) over eight games, with three doubles and three triple and finished with eight runs batted in.

For TNXL, Roman had a hot week at the plate as he batted .571 with eight hits in 14 at-bats and nine RBI and Simmons added to his eight total innings of shutout baseball on the mound for the week with a .368 average (7-for-19) at the plate with six RBI.

Drapeau led the tournament in hits with 12 and batted .522 with a home run and seven RBI for the Show.

Weather makes Georgia/Bronx Bombers 14u co-champs

FORT MYERS, Fla. – Mother Nature wouldn’t allow a matchup between the Georgia Bombers and Bronx Bombers in the championship game of the 14U Super25 National Championship as storms swept across the BOOMBAH Sports Complex in Sanford Friday afternoon, thus making each team a co-champion of the event.

Each team began the tournament in the same pool as 24 teams set off to compete for the title to start the week. Both teams got off to 3-0 starts before meeting on Wednesday to virtually decide the pool’s winner, and it was the Bronx Bombers coming away victorious 5-1 thanks to a four-run fifth inning to take control of the game.

Evan Maloney (2022, Saunderstown, R.I.) and Justin Sanchez (2022, Brooklyn, N.Y.) combined to strike out 12 batters, with Sanchez working the final four innings in relief, striking out seven and not walking a batter to pick up the victory.

With the Bronx Bombers going 5-0 in pool play, they entered bracket play as the No. 3 overall seed. On the flip side, the Georgia Bombers dropped another pool play contest, but advanced through as the No. 8 seed with a 3-2 record.

In the quarterfinals, the Bronx Bombers defeated Sticks Baseball Academy Elite 2022 2-0 behind a superb pitching performance from Yohairo Cuevas (2022, Yonkers, N.Y.), who tossed a four-hit shutout with four strikeouts.

For the Georgia Bombers, they had to match up with the No. 1 overall seed Gulf Coast Fury, but the offense came up with two big innings as a four-run third and a five-run sixth lifted the Bombers to a 10-3 victory to advance to the semifinals.

Cole Munhall (2022, Cumming, Ga.) went 2-for-2 with a pair of doubles and two RBI for the Bombers, and Riley Sanford (2022, Gainesville, Ga.) collected two hits and an RBI in the win for the Bombers.

In the semifinals, the Bronx Bombers matched up with Morris Chiefs American 14U and ran out to a 4-0 lead through five innings and hung on for a 4-2 win to advance into the championship game.

Adonys Guzman (2021, Bronx, N.Y.) opened the scoring with a run-scoring single in the first inning, and in the fourth inning, Evan Diaz (2021, Yonkers, N.Y.) brought in a run with an RBI single to lead the way offensively for the Bombers.

The Georgia Bombers had to combat a team from their home state in the semifinals as they matched up with Titans Baseball 14’s Blue, and in the early going, the Bombers quickly fell behind 2-0 after the first inning.

In the third, a five-run deluge saw Stanford, Munhall and Cody McGill (2022, Marietta, Ga.) deliver RBI singles to help the Bombers forge ahead 5-2.

After allowing the Titans to draw a run closer in the home half, the Bombers added two more runs in the fourth, with Dee Oliver (2023, Martin, Ga.) bringing home one of the tallies with an RBI single in the frame to put the Bombers ahead 7-3.

Munhall relieved Stanford on the mound in the fifth and surrendered two runs in the sixth to allow the Titans to draw to within a run at 7-6 and had to negotiate a potential threat in the seventh.

With two outs, Munhall allowed a single and walked a batter to bring the potential tying run just a base hit away, but the right-hander finished the game off by getting a harmless flyout to center to send the Bombers on their way to the championship game.

Despite the title not being decided with what was likely going to be a matchup of evenly matched teams, two individuals were honored for their performances throughout the week.

Diaz was selected as the tournament’s MV-Player for the Bronx Bombers, as he batted .353 (6-for-17) with eight RBI in seven games.

Guzman also had a strong week at the plate for the Bombers, batting .357 with five hits in 14 at-bats and drove in five runs.

For the Georgia Bombers, Charlie Jones (2022, Cumming, Ga.) was chosen as the MV-Pitcher as he appeared in three contests and allowed only one hit in five innings while striking out four.

Offensively, the Bombers were paced by McGill’s .538 average (7-for-13), with Stanford and Brian Garmon II (2022, Cumming, Ga.) leading the team with six RBI each.

After a weekend of competitive baseball, the 2026 Arizona Desert Classic came down to one final matchup between ATB 13U and Rawlings Tigers Primo.

For many players, earning an invitation to the Perfect Game Select is a dream. For Cooper Mason and Tucker Richardson, it became reality.  Now teammates on Traction Canes 14U National, the two Alabama natives have established themselves among the top players in the 2030 class. Richardson enters the summer ranked No. 10 overall nationally and No. 3 among shortstops, while Mason enters ranked at No. 44 overall and No. 13 among shortstops. Both earned invitations to the 2025 PG Select Festival, one of the most prestigious events in amateur baseball.  But beyond the rankings and talent, their story is built on friendship.  When asked what it meant to earn a Select Festival invitation last year, both players reflected on years of work leading up to the moment.  It felt good. I always wanted to make Select Fest,” Richardson said. “It just felt really good in...

13/14u PG Elite Scout Notes: Days 1-2

Perfect Game Staff
Article Image
2031 King James (Cincinnati, Ohio) got the start on the bump for Team Elite against, coincidentally enough, his hometown Cincinnati Angels and delivered a 5 inning, run rule shortened complete game effort. Not overly physical at just 5-foot-8, 140 pounds, James came out showing quickness to his arm as he opened up in the 75-77 mph while working around the zone, mixing a bigger curveball with depth to help keep hitters off balance. Ultimately he struck out 6 on the game and walked just one while scattering four hits and even helped his own cause, picking up a double on the offensive side of things.  While he went 0-1 at the dish with a pair of walks, it's still worth talking about the performance from catcher Michael Wedgeworth (Flomaton, Ala.) as his catch-and-throw skills from behind the dish were on full display throughout the game, delivering a couple of strikes down to second...

Beast of the East Scout Notes: Day 1 Another good swing later in the day from ‘28 Derek Vazquez, this one lifted down the LF line for a 2B. So much to like about the profile & projects in every aspect. #BeastOfTheEast @PG_Coastal @PG_Uncommitted https://t.co/EDA8xhgK9G pic.twitter.com/kZDw8tPC5O — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) June 5, 2026 Derek Vazquez (2028, Charlotte, N.C.) has put together a big showing through two games for the SBA Bolts National 2028. The 6-foot-2, 183-pound shortstop/outfielder has showed defensive versatility throughout the event and does so with ease. He has all the actions at shortstop but also showed good range, tracking a flyball down the left field line on Friday. In the box, he’s uber-projectable in every phase and is already doing a great job of controlling the zone. The power should continue to trend up in the coming years and...

"Houston, We Nave a Problem"

Kinley Kitchens
Article Image
Some moments set the tone for an entire game. For Jackson Nave, it happened in his very first trip to the plate. The Sevierville, Tennessee native stepped into the batter’s box looking for a pitch he could drive. A few moments later, the ball was flying over the fence, giving FTB Phillies 13U an early boost and igniting what would become a dominant offensive performance. “I was feeling good,” Nave said. “I was just trying to find a pitch I could hammer. I kept my eye on it, took it down the middle and that felt good.” That swing was only the beginning. Nave finished the game with a home run, four runs scored, and four RBI as FTB Phillies 13U rolled to a 27-4 victory on the opening day of the 2026 PG 13U National Elite Championship. For Nave, getting the offense started early is an important part of helping his team succeed. “I think it is really...

For many young players, competing alongside some of the top talent in the country can be intimidating. For Chris Reed, it is simply another opportunity to prove he belongs. The Conyers, Georgia native has established himself as one of the premier players in the 2030 class, currently ranking No. 24 nationally and No. 7 among shortstops according to Perfect Game. Reed’s game has consistently stood out against elite competition thanks to his athleticism, instincts, and all-around skill set.

‘29 SS Chase Hallett (NJ) drops the bat head on this one & lifts it out to the PS for a solo HR. Free and easy LH swing w/ present strength & more to dream on. #BeastOfTheEast @PGMidAtlantic pic.twitter.com/Ym9LFg05tx — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) June 4, 2026 Chase Hallett (2029, Pennington, N.J.) came up with a loud swing on Thursday morning, dropping the barrel on one and lifting it out to the pull-side. It’s an intriguing profile overall with the young left-handed hitting middle infielder and the power projects in a big way. The swing is short and simple, he finds the barrel at a high clip, and is a sure handed defender up the middle. This has all the makings of a high-end prospect in a few years and is certainly a name of note in the ‘29 class. Canon Day (2028, Germantown, Tenn.) put together a great day on the offensive side of things,...
