14u-16u Summer Blowout Scout Notes

Perfect Game Staff

Bryce Clavon (2024, Hampton, Ga.) is the No. 4 player in the 2020 class and his overall game is extremely advanced beyond his years. Clavon is a really athletic shortstop who can run and hit at a high level. The Oklahoma commit has a real feel for the barrel along with bat speed that he is able to produce from his quick-twitch athleticism. Clavon barreled the baseball in all three of his at bats in the Georgia Jackets 4:00 pm contest Friday. Coming away with two hits including the double in the video above, Clavon finished the day 2-3 as the extra hitter in the lineup batting at the top of the order. The swing is quick and pretty short staying direct and meeting the ball out in front. The righthander gets downhill with his swing plane and creates some line drive jump to the middle of the field. 

Clavon’s teammate Jansen Kenty (2023, Newnan, Ga.), a middle of the order power hitter and lefthanded pitcher, just committed to Alabama. On Friday afternoon, he swung the bat with plenty of impact strength showing off his power potential with a deep fly ball to center field and a double down the pull side line. Kenty is a physical young lefty who made a big name for himself in the 2018 Little League World Series as he knocked a two-run bomb in Williamsport with the game on the line down two runs in the bottom of the final inning. Two years later and now Kenty is an Alabama commit with real potential both on the mound and at the plate. 



Going from the 14U Georgia Jackets to the 15U Georgia Jackets, Brooks Bryan (2022, Opelika, Ala.) stood out at the plate at East Cobb in the nightcap Friday. Bryan is a big lefthanded bat who mans the three hole for the Jackets and with good reason. There is some huge power potential in the lefty’s bat, but also a really advanced approach in the box. Bryan has an ability to hit the ball the other way with a feel for the barrel. In his third at bat, Bryan let a fastball travel and barreled it the other way for a hard low-liner. That approach AB followed up another double the lefthander drove to the left-center gap also going the other way with it. The strong 6-1, 205 pound lefthanded hitting catcher also knocked a home run earlier in the tournament per Diamondkast.

Justice Haynes (2023, Buford, Ga.) is a big-time football recruit on the gridiron as a running back, but is also a talented outfielder in his own right on the diamond. Haynes is as physical of a rising sophomore that you are going to find as the lefthanded hitting outfielder stands at 5-10, 192 pounds of muscle that is well-proportioned throughout. His swing is a bit raw and rotational to the pull side, but the speed and feel for the barrel stand out. Haynes knocked a single and double in this game with wheels that cover plenty of ground in the outfield and get him down the line with impact foot speed. 

A couple of 643 DP Cougars players at the 15U level standout on Coach Pedraza’s squad. Carson Kerce (2023, Marietta, Ga.) and Kameron Douglas (2022, Woodstock, Ga.) bat leadoff and three-hole respectively for 643 who came out swinging in the Friday night contest putting 10 runs on the board in the first three innings. 

Kerce is an all-around talent with more room to continue to improve as he gets stronger. A righthanded hitting shortstop, with a good arm, loose swing and good running ability is what college recruiters can expect from the rising sophomore. The shortstop’s arm stands out even between innings when he is throwing to the first baseman. His throws have plenty of carry to them while the foot speed was able to showcase a 4.36 home to first to beat out an infield single as well. The swing is easy with a simple stroke and barrel whip through the zone. 

Douglas has a frame that you can dream on and is young for the grade in the class of 2022. The swing projects in a big way and the power is going to come for the listed primary righthanded pitcher from Woodstock High School. Douglas has power potential at the plate and is off to a loud summer with his contact skills in the box. He strides into contact and meets the baseball out in front with loose wrists and plenty of bat speed.

Jake Beaver (2022, Gainesville, Ga.) had the pitching performance of the tournament in semifinal play Sunday as he got the win while throwing a complete game, allowing 0 earned runs and striking out 18 batters and allowing only 4 runners to reach base. Beaver controlled the feel of the game with a competitive nature on the mound, working very quick and never allowing batters to settle in against him. Taking a no-hitter into the 6th inning, Beaver showed a lot of control over his 82-85 mph fastball and hit a lot of spots early in counts with the fastball. The lefty also showed feel for his 1 to 7 curveball late in counts as it acted as a true putaway pitch, causing hitters to chase out of the zone all game. Beaver comes from a ¾ slot in a delivery that has a lot of deception and hides the ball well. Beaver proved himself as a fierce competitor that has the ability to truly take over a game and should be an interesting watch the rest of the summer.

Parker Hughes (2021, Roswell, Ga.) carried the Titans 16U Blue team to a semifinal victory Sunday, tallying 3 hits and 3 RBI including a no-doubt homer to left-center and a long single that was a few feet from being his second homer of the game. Hughes showed a very impressive hit tool as he never tried to do too much, hammering an outside pitch to right field that almost left the yard and shortening up with two strikes leading to a hard-hit single to add to blast. Hughes also proved to be a good baserunner, stealing 2 bases in the game on which he got great jumps off the pitcher. 

Samuel Horn (2022, Lawrenceville, Ga.) had one of the best pitching performances of the tournament in the championship game Sunday, resulting in Horn taking home the Most Valuable Pitcher award. Horn threw a complete game only allowing 2 walks and 1 hit while striking out 15 and allowing 0 earned runs against a Titans 16U Blue lineup that was scorching hot over the past few games. Horn, coming out of a ¾ arm slot, got up early in the count with his ability to spot his lively 86-89 mph fastball and put hitters away often with his hard 75-77 mph slider that induced swing and misses all game. Horn also flashed a low 80s changeup that played well off of his fastball. On top of his dominant day on the mound, Horn also produced offensively, tallying two hits and showing the ability to go the other way with authority while also tallying a stolen base. 

Aidan Jolley (2022, Acworth, Ga.) took home the Most Valuable Player award, having a dominant semifinal and championship game Sunday, tallying a homer in each game bringing his home run total to 3 on the tournament. Jolley has a short powerful stroke from the right side of the plate and showed the ability to turn around an 89 mph fastball and put it into the trees. Both of Jolley’s homers on the day were no-doubt tape measure shots that exploded off the bat. Flying under the radar so far, Jolley will look to use this extremely impressive performance as a jumpstart to a breakout 2020 summer.

Tyler Goddard (2022, Ball Ground, Ga.) is a 5’ 11” 180-pound right-handed pitcher that comes at hitters with multiple arm angles and prefers to work from the first base side of the rubber. From his sidearm slot, Goddard gets serious arm side run and sink on his heater, which sits in the upper 70s and will reach the low 80s, generating plenty of groundballs. The Cherokee High School attendee also slings a sweeping sidearm slider in the low 60s. His higher release point, which is from a three-quarters angle, produces a sinking fastball that topped at 85. The offering pairs with an overhand curveball that exhibited solid depth. Pitching in a playoff game Thursday morning, Goddard struck out five, yielding just three hits and one earned run in five frames.

Bo Rhudy (2023, Chickamauga, Ga.) started on the mound in the semifinals and turned in a complete game win on 76 pitches. The 6’ 2” 190-pound righty has a lot of physicality for his age, as he has not yet turned 16. The student from Gordon Lee High School utilizes his present strength by pitching with a delivery that features effort and intent. Rhudy raises his knee to his belt and his stride extends slightly towards a left-handed hitter, but the delivery was repeatable and created an 85-mph fastball that would dart to the arm side occasionally. The rising sophomore would also cut the heater to add a wrinkle to his repertoire. His secondary offering was a curveball in the upper 60’s and low 70s that had late, sharp break and depth. Tossing for eXposure 15u, Rhudy did not issue a walk, struck out five, and allowed just a pair of runs on four hits.

Caleb Hampton (2023, Ooltewah, Tenn.) squared up several baseballs and drove them into the gap for extra-base hits in this Thursday morning look at the physical prospect that stands at 5’ 10” and weighs 190 pounds. Ranked as the top outfielder in the state of Tennessee, Hampton grips his bat deep into the palms of his hands, which allows him to use his superior strength to move the barrel through the zone. Playing centerfield, Hampton reads flies and line drives well and is sure to take decent angles to a ball in the air. In a pair of Thursday morning games playoff, Hampton collected multiple doubles and helped propel his eXposure team into the championship game.

Garrett Moody (2023, Milton, Ga.) consistently buried his bowling ball sinker in the playoffs on Thursday morning, as the 6’ 2” 175-pound right-handed pitcher tossed a pair of innings in relief. Starting from the first base side of the mound, Moody relied on a fastball that ranged in the mid-to-upper 70s, a pitch that showed a ton of arm-side run and downward action. From Cambridge High School, Moody has a feel for spin and a huge roundhouse curve that averages a velocity of 64 miles per hour. Moody also employs a mid-60s changeup to complete a three-pitch mix that will only improve as the rising sophomore grows into his projectable frame.

-John Keuler

 

Luke Fernandez (2022 Cumming, Ga.) improves every time we see him. He shows a sturdy lower half with broad shoulders, proving to be physically advanced for his age. Fernandez got the start for his TG Dbacks 16u squad & was showing easy velo early. He was up to 91 mph with the fastball in the first inning and then settled down into the upper 80’s. His arm action is smooth as he generates a down of downhill drive with the lower half, keeping restraint off his arm. He also mixed in a curveball with 11 to 5 movement that he tunneled well from an over the top to high three-quarter arm slot. He also shows some promise in the box offensively as he singled in the first inning of the game he started on the mound. Look for this uncommitted prospect to generate some noise this year on the recruiting trail. 

Andrew Shadburn (2022 Peachtree Corners, Ga.) has had himself an impressive couple of weeks at the dish. The right-handed hitter is red hot and is absolutely punishing baseballs. He utilizes quick hands as he generates some lag before keeping a long barrel through the zone. Shadburn fits the middle of the line-up mold perfectly as he proves to have power in the bat. He took an inner half pitch and drove a double down the line during day 2’s action. He hit a smooth .333 for the event with an OPS of 1.044. He’s currently uncommitted but look for that to change here sooner rather than later. 

Standing at an eye opening 6-5 225 pounds, Manning West (2022 Winder, Ga.) is one of the most physical prospects from the event. His hit tool is by far his strongest as he consistently barrels up baseballs. He generates a ton of bat speed as he proved to be able to drive the baseball gap to gap with power. He took an outer half pitch and drove a double into the right-center gap while knocking in a run. West also fits the mold, playing a solid firstbase with a good glove. He’s still a bit raw as he is young, but when he starts to figure out his frame, he is going to be even more dangerous in the box. 
 

Former 2018 14u PG Select Festival Attendee, Riley Stanford (2022 Gainesville, Ga.), continued his reign as one of the top two-way guys in his entire prep class. He checks all the boxes from a tools stand point, as well as, the physically mature build. The righthanded hitter swung the bat extremely well this week. He hit an easy .500 while tallying 3 extra base hits, including an absolute bomb of a homerun. One of his extra base hits was knocked off the top of wall. Stanford is a huge get for whoever is to pick him up. At this point, it is a waiting game to see where he ends up as he has offers from all over the place. 

Adam Haber (2021 Marietta, Ga.) is a name that has flown under the radar for too long now. He plays a rangy centerfield and is a great leadoff type bat for his squad. In the box, the lefthanded hitter isn’t afraid to go deep into counts and see pitches. He has quick hands and utilizes a linear swing to drive it on a line and let his speed generate opportunities. During day 2’s action, he tallied a triple to his name as he bounced one off the rightfield wall and also singled during the game while knocking in a run. With his combination of speed, power, & sharp baseball IQ, he’s going to be a solid, late sign for someone at the next level. 

William Ritter (2022 Alpharetta, Ga.) threw the game of his prep career in the early stages of bracket play. The righthanded pitcher got the start against a loaded Georgia Bombers squad and carved them up. First & foremost, Ritter hit his spots with pin-point command, just walking one in a complete game going 7 innings. His fastball was up to 78 mph and sat in the mid 70’s throughout the contest. He flashed athletic movements on the mound as he drove with the lower half and finished direct to the dish. He found barrels at times, but his defense played solid behind him as he gave up just 4 hits. He ended the day with 7 punchouts & the biggest smile on any prospects face from the event.

PG Softball Chesterfield Fall Showcase HS Division Oct 17-18, 2026 Chesterfield First Community Athletic Complex CHESTERFIELD, MO — It was a perfect weekend for softball, with 16 teams converging on the Chesterfield First Community Athletic Complex to compete in the High School Division.

Wildcatters Reign Supreme at 13u WWBA

Jheremy Brown
Article Image
After both the Best of the West and the Beast of the East wrapped up, a big conglomerate of high end talent and stacked teams descended upon West Palm for both the 13u and the 14u WWBA World Championships. While the weather threw a wrench into the plans early on and some adjustment was needed to ensure the event moved forward, it was nothing but sunshine and competitive baseball throughout Sunday and into the early morning Monday.  Kicking off with the 13u WWBA World Championship, the first thing to point out is the fact this was a wood bat tournament played on 60-90 fields and while the combo was a first for most, you wouldn't know it with their level of play throughout the weekend. In an unsurprising twist and a continuation of their 12u dominance, the 13u championship saw the #2 seeded Goldin Prospects lock horns with the top seeded Houston Wildcatters, aka the champion of the...

‘27 RHP Jaxson Weiss (IL) pitched well in his 5 innings and put up some eye popping strikeout numbers. He punched out 10 and allowed only 2ER. FB T86 early and flashed a BB 72-75. #WCFinale https://t.co/M8GtCUgxyS — Perfect Game Illinois (@PG_Illinois) October 17, 2026 Jaxson Weiss (2027, New Lennox, Ill.) a right-handed pitcher put up big strikeout numbers in his start on Saturday. He worked five innings while punching out ten opposing hitters. The fastball topped out at 86 mph and sat in the 82-85 mph range most of the game. His breaking ball was his primary off-speed, living 72-75 mph. Weiss keeps his body under control throughout his delivery, helping him with his good command on the mound. He uses his lower half well with a nice leg drive and gets his hips through, guiding his backside. He pitched with confidence and stayed ahead of hitters most of the game. Hayden...

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...

WWBA World Championship Notes: Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 | Day 4 PG Draft: Jupiter Draft Movers | Jupiter: Stars Being Stars Gets your reads in now because by the time you reach the end, some of the talent in this article might be giving their commitments to a college somewhere across the country. Every player below did something that caught out scout's eye and should certainly be on the radar for college coaches, if they aren't already.  Braxton Sykes (2028, Brunswick, Ga.) tossed a total of six innings down in Jupiter, collecting six strikeouts while failing to allow either a hit or earned run during his tenure on the mound. The 6-foot-2 right-hander showcased an impressive three-pitch mix with excellent feel to locate in every part of the strike zone. His fastball lived in the mid- to upper-80s mph range with more velocity to project for as Sykes continues to add strength and...

Some of the players below were already on the radar but took their status to the next level, while others made scout and recruiters do a double take and add themselves to follow lists.  Benjamin Faigin (2027, Monroe, N.J.) showed off some serious stuff on the mound in Jupiter, pitching with a ton of energy and confidence. The 6-foot southpaw ran his fastball up to 95 mph, sitting comfortably in the low-90s with good carry through the strike zone. He went to a more vertical curveball when ahead in counts, sequencing the...
