Thousands of players wearing the uniforms of more than 260 teams from throughout the nation are gathering at fields in Southwest Florida and Southeast Texas this holiday weekend for the 2021 season-opening Perfect Game MLK Championships.

The 180-team PG East MLK Championship and the 82-team PG South MLK Championship kickoff on Friday at fields in and around Fort Myers, Fla., and Tomball, Texas, respectively. This year’s South MLK takes the place of the PG West MLK Championship, which was held in the Phoenix-area from 2016-20 but suspended this year due to COVID-19 restrictions.

Play at the East MLK features teams in the 11u, 12u, 13u, 14u, Freshman, Sophomore, Underclass and Upperclass age divisions while the South MLK showcases action in the Freshman, Sophomore, Underclass and Upperclass divisions. All tournaments run for four days with championship games scheduled for Monday on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

The Terry Park Sports Complex in Fort Myers is also hosting the 24^th annual PG World Showcase this weekend. The World Showcase is PG’s longest-running national-level showcase event having first been staged at Terry Park in 1997; 110 prospects from the classes of 2021 and 2022 are expected this year. The 2021 PG World Uncommitted Showcase will run simultaneously with 50 class of 2021 prospects expected to be on hand.

14u East Spring Opener Scout Notes

Perfect Game Staff

Roman Keister (2030, Dade City, FL) Could not miss the barrel this weekend tallying 6 hits including 2 triples and 4 RBI. Starts the load early and controls his body well, the up the middle approach really plays in game. Also worked from off the mound for an inning and picked up a punch out. Colton Russo (2030, Coral Springs, FL) Showed off the power burning outfielders all weekend. 5 hits including two triples that carried over the CF and RF heads. Has a good understanding about using the lower half in the swing and the bat to ball skills really impressed. Karson Blakney (2030, St. Augustine, FL) Made his impact in a big way this week, collecting the win in the quarterfinals. In his outing he went 5 shutout innings and struck out 5 while only allowing 2 hits. Worked in the mid 70s with the FB and topped out at 78. Also produced on offense driving in 5 RBI on 4 hits. ...

College Players of the Week: April 7

Craig Cozart

April 7th Perfect Game/Player of the Week: Andrew Williamson, OF, UCF The UCF Knights (20-9) are coming off one of their biggest series victories in years when they went to Morgantown and took down the Mountaineers to take control of the Big 12 regular season standings. The offense put on quite the performance and Andrew Williamson set the tone by leaving the yard in his first at-bat of the weekend launching a towering home run over the centerfield wall. The 6-0/195 lefty from St. Petersburg, FL has one of the sweetest strokes in the college game today and when he goes, so do the Knights. In the 3-game series, the junior collected 6 hits in his 10 at-bats, scoring 6 runs, on 5 walks, a double and he launched 3 home runs all told. While he had a stretch earlier in the season where he was searching for his stroke a bit, he is getting locked in at the...

College Top 25: April 6

Vincent Cervino

With another week in the books, some teams at the top continue to prove they are elite, and others continue to fall by the wayside. Meanwhile, there were several teams that had been lingering outside the Top 25 that had huge weekends to put themselves in the thick of things as every weekend has significant consequences for good or for bad. The No. 1 UCLA Bruins (29-2) have now pushed their win streak to an incredible 23-games as they swept USC (27-6) who was previously ranked No. 7 in the poll. The Bruins are off to a perfect (15-0) start in Big Ten play and are without a doubt the most complete team in the country right now. The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (26-5) move up to No. 2 this week after they dismantled now No. 12 Auburn (22-9) in the midweek and then swept Cal on the West Coast last weekend. Texas (26-5) moves down one spot to No. 3 this week after...

PG Staff Mock Draft

Jheremy Brown

Welcome to another Perfect Game Mock Draft. This is not your typical mock draft as it features 15 different GMs drafting the first two rounds of the draft. Each member of the mock draft was assigned two teams and as such will be drafting all of the picks in the first two rounds for each responsible team. The actual draft order will be presented below and we will dive into how teams made their selections and how they feel about the players drafted. It is important to note that this is not how we think the draft will play out in almost any capacity. This is simply an exercise 4 months ahead of time with a large portion of the scouting staff and some picks fall under personal favorites, best available, and a multitude of other factors. Chicago White Sox 1:1 Roch Cholowsky, SS, UCLA | 1:41 Jack Radel, RHP, Notre Dame The White Sox don’t overthink here and select Roch Cholowsky, who has...

Lennex Minor (‘28 CA) absolutely destroys this offering to the PS for a 2-run shot. 2-4 on the day w/ 4 driven in. Athletic in the box w/ a quick stroke and strength throughout the frame. Also closed out the game running the FB up to 88 in a St. Bernard win #PGHS @PG_Scouting pic.twitter.com/KF7BsKGcm7 — Perfect Game California (@California_PG) March 29, 2026 Lennex Minor, MIF/P, St. Bernard (2028) Minor had a massive day in my look this past Saturday in a game being played at the University of San Diego. The sophomore had a pair of hits, one which was a no-doubt homer, and drove in four. Minor’s athleticism jumps out on the field with twitchy actions both at the dish and in the dirt. He features a 6-foot, 170-pound frame with room to add and generates from a strong lower half and exceptionally quick hands. Showing two-way potential, he made an...

DII/DIII/NAIA Rankings Update: April 1

Nick Herfordt

Welcome to another week of Perfect Game Small School baseball — and if you're looking for clarity at the top, you've come to the wrong place. Across all three classifications, the No. 1 spot is very much an open question, and nobody is sleeping comfortably right now. In NCAA Division II, Pittsburg State is stumbling at precisely the wrong moment, leaving the door cracked wide open for hungry challengers to come knocking. In the NAIA, defending national champion LSU Shreveport has dropped four straight and suddenly looks far more vulnerable than a program of their pedigree ever expects to be. And in NCAA Division III, the race for the top ranking is less a competition and more a ten-car pileup of elite programs, none of whom have done enough to pull away — and all of whom have done plenty to deserve it. Three classifications, three vacancies at the top, and a whole lot of...
