WWBA World Championship Event Page | WWBA World Championship Pool Previews | Staff Picks

As the fall season continues to unfold, the Perfect Game scouts came together to highlight several uncommitted prospects scattered throughout the rosters in the WWBA World Championship which is set to kick off on Thursday, October 7. Below are the first five regions we cover with several high-level names mentioned who recruiting coordinators should get eyes on throughout the week. 
 
Canada/Northwest




Adison Mattix (2022, Edmonds, Wash.) is a physical right-hander that stands out amongst the uncommitted arms in the region. He’s been clocked at 91 mph with some cutting action while also showing good feel for a mid-70s slider and low-80s changeup. Both off-speeds have distinct movement with more in store.
 
Evan Ashe (2022, Acton, Ontario) has a solid right-handed swing with good power potential at the dish. He keeps things simple with a linear path and plays an all-around game on both ends. Keep a close eye on the uncommitted 2022 product. 
 

Cole Patrick (2022, Markham, Ontario) is another solid position player hailing from Canada. Shows good athleticism and range in the outfield with good routes and movements. Generates solid bat speed and contact from the right side with fluid wrists and hips. Uncommitted name to keep an eye on for the 2022 class.
 

Brayden Marx (2023, Pleasant Grove, Utah) shows a good amount of upside on the bump with a solid three-pitch mix. Runs the fastball up to 89 mph with arm-side run. Mixes in a tight low-70s slider and fading changeup in the low-80s. Projectable frame with the athleticism to match. Enticing profile that remains uncommitted for the 2023 class.

 -Isaiah Burrows

 
Coastal


Mike Joyce (2022, Mechanicsville, Va.) generates good downhill force from the 6-foot-1 frame creating great leverage as he attacks the zone with his fastball topping 93 mph and sitting between 89-91 mph. The slider/changeup both flash well and he maintains great command of all three pitches. He is very much a strikeout pitcher with many weapons on the mound while showing great pitchability.

Erik Anderson (2022, Matthews, N.C.) has great potential to be a two-way player at the next level, showing great athleticism in the infield and harnesses a smooth glove. He also has tremendous arm strength off the mound, topping 91 mph and sitting in the upper-80s with a good feel for the mound.
 

Brad Gregory (2022, Sanford, N.C.) is a well-known prospect in the circuit fresh off the 2021 National Showcase as he exhibits great skills behind the plate with a quick release and great arm strength, throwing runners out with ease. Gregory has a power swing with great hitting skills. He also pitched off the mound with a fastball topping 91 mph showing two-way player potential.
 

Kaden Varela Payne (2022, Wake Forest, N.C.) has a 6-foot-1 frame with a short and quick arm action producing late life on his fastball that he moves on both sides of the plate. He shows good pitchability with his fastball topping 90 mph and sitting in the upper-80s. Payne combines the fastball with a good change-of-pace breaking ball and apparent feel for the off-speed.
 

Josh Rivera (2022, Leesburg, Va.) shows tremendous arm strength out of a 5-foot-11 frame with late life on the fastball that tops 92 mph and sits in the high-80s. The slider/changeup combo works very well for him as he keeps the hitters guessing and remain off balance.

-Todd Coffey


Jaylend Clemmons (2022, Southport, N.C.) is long, lean, and very athletic at 6-foot-3 and 190 pounds. He is a difference maker in the outfield as he uses his long strides to take away would-be hits in the gap. Creates nice leverage at the plate, using his hands to deliver the barrel while staying inside the ball with an opposite-field approach. 
 

Trent Murchison (2022, Jacksonville, N.C.) is a spark plug on the field with a compact build and twitchy actions. Left-handed swing is loose with feel for the barrel and packs quite a bit of pop. Roams the outfield as a true center fielder and can jump on the mound and be a factor there as well. Could be a nice two-way player at the next level, who plays with infectious energy. 
 
Hunter Stone (2022, Wake Forest, N.C.) has a large, sturdy frame at 6-foot-2 and 190 pounds. Very good athlete and runs well for a primary catcher, sits in deep and has quick feet providing for a clean release with carry on his throws. Creates some length is his swing, getting on plane early but there is juice at contact when on time. 

Trace Baker (2022, Winterville, N.C.) has your prototypical pitcher's body at 6-foot-3 and 200 pounds. Shows emerging stuff on the mound, creating nice tilt and utilizing long limbs to gain distance to release point. Fastball is on the uptick and showing upper-80s velocity as he works aggressively from his lower half to create his arm speed. Slider is a solid offering in the mid-70s with good tilt and ability to miss barrels.  


Kaden Hilburger (2022, Yorktown, Va.) is a solid athlete with some projection, and is listed at 6-foot and 175 pounds. Talented in many facets of the game, he is a switch-hitter with the ability to drive the ball from both sides of the plate. Average runner with good instincts in the outfield, arm plays extremely well and jumps on the mound with a mid-80s fastball. Two-way potential will be nice to follow moving forward. 

-Craig Cozart


Deep South

Conner Rodrigue (2022, Denham Springs, La.) is an explosive athlete will be lacing them up with Elite Squad 2022 in Jupiter with the kind of speed that can impact the game at the next level as a potential middle-of-the-field defender. The right-handed swing showed good production this summer, hitting over .350 in 21 games with present bat speed and the ability to drive the ball hard on a line.


Howell Polk (2022, Birmingham, Ala.) remains one of the better uncommitted arms in Alabama headed into his trip to Jupiter with the East Coast Sox this week. The 6-foot-1 right-hander was up to 90 mph in an outing this past weekend throwing in Hoover with four strikeouts in two innings. He has shown the ability to land a breaking ball and changeup for strikes in the past as the potential three-pitch mix allows him to get his off-speed to each half of the plate.

Ryan Neilson (2022 Collierville, Miss.) will be another uncommitted 2022 arm to keep an eye on for the East Coast Sox this week as the right-hander is coming off a strong inning in relief in Hoover where he was able to get the fastball to both halves of the plate, topping out at 89 mph with some deception to the delivery. The breaking ball he showed has average depth in the low-70s, while he went to a changeup right-on-right for a strikeout at 81 mph.
 

It's tough to find a more projectable arm on the market at this point than Jackson Sleeper (2022, Franklin, Tenn.), as the right-hander stands at 6-foot-6, 205 pounds. The fastball has been up to 87 mph while showing the ability to create a different angle with his lower three-quarters arm slot. He will also mix in a slider and changeup as you can see him throw for the East Cobb Baseball this week in Florida.

Lakin Polk (2022, Ponchatoula, La.) has shown a feel for the zone in his smaller sample size to this point, topping out at 87 mph with the fastball while striking out 17 while walking just two over seven innings. Polk will be on the Houston Astros Scout Team this week at the WWBA where his extra-large build at 6-foot-4, 210 pounds projects well with good durability moving forward.
 

Dallis Moran (2023, St. Amant, La.) shows good athleticism to the delivery with a live arm, bringing a fastball that has been into the upper-80s and projects for more as he fills out his 6-foot, 175-pound frame. He will throw the fastball down in the zone at his best, pairing it with a deep changeup that has proven plenty capable of missing barrels in past outings.
 

James Walker Morgan (2022, Montgomery, Ala.) has things to like on both sides of the ball where he has been plenty impressive all fall putting together strong performances with the bat and on the mound. He has shown some juice from the right side using the lower half well and getting his large 6-foot-7 frame shifted into contact. On the mound, the fastball will get into the upper-80s, sitting in the mid-80s in longer outings, getting ground balls at his best. Look for him potentially to do both with the Banditos Scout team this weekend.

Austin Breedlove (2022, Ooltewah, Tenn.) displays a projectable high-waisted, broad-shouldered frame with room to continue adding strength as he finishes filling out. He will get the fastball up to 89 mph with solid arm speed pitching for the Scorpions/Giants Scout team this week. The fastball is paired with a short mid-70s slider as well as feel for a changeup that shows plenty of upside.

Harrison Long (2022, Opelika, Ala.) shows a lean athletic build with good speed that projects well in the outfield moving on to the next level. At 6-foot-1, 165 pounds he has room to add more strength to go along with his 6.78 speed. The swing has shown flashes of pop with the ability to be on time out front with the barrel.

Michael Smith (2023, Pensacola, Fla.) has the tools to step in and play in the outfield at the next level with a physically strong 6-foot-3, 200-pound frame and 6.80 speed. His right-handed stroke has the ability to get the ball in the air, allowing the strength in the frame to play from gap-to-gap with backspin and carry on the baseball as he controls the barrel well and has an understanding for the zone.

-Colt Olinger


Florida 

Yahir Ortiz (2022, Saint Cloud, Fla.) comes to Jupiter on a talented Power Platinum team that made a run at the title a year ago and his abundance of big tools may be some of the best of the uncommitted prospects in attendance. He ran a 6.38 sixty at the National Showcase showing premium athleticism to go with a huge arm clocked up to 95 mph from the outfield, while also showing a clean right-handed stroke that can produce extra-base hits in bunches.

Edian Espinal (2022, Viera, Fla.) is one of the more consistent producers in the uncommitted group as he’s hit .378 in a good sample size of events this year and it’s the hit tool combined with real physicality that has stood out. He’s shown able to swing it from both sides with real quick hands and good bat speed while he’s stayed athletic through adding strength to the frame that has played well in his ability to produce extra-base hits.

Jackson Hiatt (2022, Cantonment, Fla.) might just be the literally strongest hitter on this list of uncommitted prospects coming to Jupiter and he has shown that at a variety of stops. At the National Showcase he showed a slightly longer but extremely strong righthanded stroke where he produced some big-time contact and then got it done at the BCS with nine hits, six of which were doubles on his way to hitting .500 at the event.
 

Justin Henschel (2022, Plantation, Fla.) had himself a good summer where he averaged comfortably over a strikeout per inning and showed true upside to the profile. He’s long and projectable at 6-foot-3, 173 pounds, will work in the 87-90 mph range with good command of the fastball, shows solid feel to spin a true downer breaking ball and has a real feel to pitch with his ability to fill the zone with either pitch in any count.

-Tyler Russo

Rene Ramirez Jr (2022, Miami, Fla.) is an athletic shortstop who stands at 6-foot-2, 190 pounds, and can switch-hit. He can work all parts of the field with line drives with a short direct path to the ball. His swings from the left side look the most natural. Ramirez Jr glides well in the infield with fluid defensive motions. Definitely one to circle to give a look. 

Cadmiel Pompa (2022, Lakeland, Fla.) has a solid frame at 6-foot, 180 pounds, with much more room to fill out. He has lanky limbs with an athletic feel for the outfield. Adds a good mixture of line drive ability and gap-to-gap doubles power with strong strides around the basepaths. Only seems to get better as he matures. 

Jonathan Xuereb (2022, Boca Raton, Fla.) fits the mold of underrated. We've seen him play many times with X Team 2022, and playing this tournament with Rawlings National Scout Team, he will be a great addition for them and enables him to get more looks. Can play either middle infield spot with soft hands and smoothness to his actions. Usually seen in the three-hole, he has a short compact swing with some pull-side juice. Will be a great asset to any team who reaches out. 

Anthony "AJ" Hunerberg (2022, Palm Beach Gardens, Fla.) is a physical right-handed bat at 6-foot-2, 210 pounds, but don’t let the size fool you, this kid can run too, posting a 6.63 60 time. He covers ground in the outfield and doesn’t get cheated on his swings. Starts with low hands and has a lot of bat speed that can’t be missed. A lot to like in this prospect. 

Christian Soto (2022, Kissimmee, Fla.) is looking for a new home to play college ball, and I don’t think he will have to look much longer after this tournament. Top-of-the-order type bat for FTB Tucci. He is a gamer with high hands, easy swing, and gap-to-gap power.

-Gunnar Lambert

Tag Williams (2022, Monticello, Fla.) is a projectable 6-foot-2, 180-pound right-hander that has always been ready to pop as he can hold weight/strength. He is a strike thrower with a three-pitch mix that can be groomed and developed in a big way at the next level. He already peaks in the upper-80s.


Armani Newton (2022, Fort Pierce, Fla.) is uncommitted, which is wild heading into Jupiter. He is a toolsy and twitchy outfielder, who by the way, hits from the left side. The is a clear power/speed combination that can play early at the next level, but has all the tools to take a huge next step very soon.


Jadyn Fielder (2022, Windermere, Fla.) is the son of Prince Fielder. The younger Fielder is a very strong and chiseled-framed left-handed hitter that has come on in a big way over the last year. He finds a ton of hard contact and the power is on the horizon. He plays second base now and has the athleticism to move around the field if needed.

Jack Bello (2022, Palm Beach Gardens, Fla.) is a very strong right-handed hitting first baseman that grinds out at-bats and seems to have big OPS potential at the next level. There is a lot to like about his ability to slow the game down on both sides of the ball and provide stability in the lineup, and for his defenders on the dirt when he is playing first base.
 
-Jered Goodwin


Georgia



Adrian Roman (2022, Newnan, Ga.) was at one point an SEC commit but with some coaching changes, he has decommitted and is one of the most premier uncommitted arms in the state. We have seen him up to 90 mph in multiple outings over the last year with feel to spin a breaking ball. Command has been an issue at times but the overall upside here is too big to overlook. In 21.1 innings pitched over the calendar year, he has 22 strikeouts to his name. Look for his outing to be a big one at Worlds this week. 

Devin Chandler (2022, Ellenwood, Ga.) is a name to remember if you are looking for a sure-handed utility type guy who can swing the stick in the box. Can play all three infield positions and has the arm strength to go with it. Also had one of his best years in the box from a stats standpoint. In 78 plate appearances, he hit .385 with five home runs and 31 RBI. He also has an OPS over 1.200. Chandler is sure to grab some attention down in Jupiter as he is still left on the board.
 

Matt Dupuis (2022, Woodstock, Ga.) can put his name in the hat for one of the top uncommitted two-ways left in the state of Georgia. Long, lean frame with some room to still fill out will have pitching coaches dreaming. In 22 innings pitched, he struck out 20 opposing batters. The bat has really come alive though with an average of over .300 on the season in 63 plate appearances. He also won a state championship at Mount Paran Christian School so the winning mentality is something he is used to.
 

Jevarra Martin (2022, Covington, Ga.) is projectable to say the least, standing at 6-foot-5. The southpaw burst onto the PG scene this summer as he had a dominant performance at the National Uncommitted Showcase. Easy arm action for the size as he pounds the mitt in the mid to upper-80’s and has been up to 90 mph before. Very sharp vertical breaking ball to go with it as he compliments the heater well with the breaker. In his 16 1/3 innings of work, he struck out 23 this summer. Martin will look to battle some command issues, but he will surely bring a crowd of scouts out to see him this upcoming weekend. Shaping up to be a must see outing for the big lefty.

Nicholas Hollifield (2022, Winder, Ga.) has been catching some of the top arms in the country for his Georgia Bombers organization and it is about time he gets some love for it. Fundamentally sound and takes pride in being the backstop for his top-notch program. Has also proven to have some arm strength as he has recorded a sub-2.00 second pop time during workouts. The bat is starting to come along as he always comes up clutch getting a runner over or finding a base knock to bring in a run late during a close game. He is hitting .270 during the year so far with 27 RBI in 110 plate appearances. Hollifield can step into any program and be the defensive catcher needed to catch a big arm and leave runners stranded.

-Drew Wesolowski


Paul Farley (2023, Kennesaw, Ga.) saw big jumps this summer from his tall, slender right-handed pitcher's frame. At 6-foot-2 and 160 pounds, the righty is already running the fastball up to 91 mph and maintaining the high-80s while punching out a batter per inning. Mix in a tight spinning breaking ball with depth in the high-70s and a fading changeup in the low-80s and one can see the present upside when he takes the bump. Farley is a quality starting pitcher with a three-pitch mix that commands the zone with a projectable frame to fill and add to his blossoming pitchability. 


Davis Newman (2022, Woodstock, Ga.) is a strong right-handed hitting first baseman and catcher that exudes the grinder mentality to just get the job done. With a simple and efficient approach in the box, he just hits with strength to all fields from his strong frame and barrel awareness. Faster than one would presume from his physical stature, Newman runs a 6.92 sixty with a strong arm that plays around the diamond. A strong work ethic and no-fear mentality with a quiet demeanor and Newman quietly puts together quality at-bats in the box and solid defensive actions around the bag. 


Colin Houck (2023, Lilburn, Ga.) is a big-framed shortstop with power to all fields from his strong base and middle-of-field approach that drives the ball to all fields with barrel awareness. A highly-recruited quarterback in football, Houck has arm strength and good actions up the middle with a move to third base a possibility as he continues to fill out his young and projectable frame. A highly-regarded prospect in two sports with present upside as he looks to continue his quality play in all facets. 


Agyei Quinichett (2022, Atlanta, Ga.) is a strongly-built right-handed pitcher standing 6-foot, 195 pounds, and he is a strike thrower that pounds the zone with a fastball up to 90 mph and a curveball with depth in the mid-70s. The impressive aspect of his game is his ability to maintain the velocity deep into games while recording strikeouts and inducing weak contact while not leaving the zone to do so. A physical presence on the bump that goes right at hitters while displaying no fear and athleticism every time he takes the ball.  


Chase Meyer (2023, Canton, Ga.) is another power arm from the state of Georgia. Meyer runs the fastball into the low-90s with a high of 93 mph throughout the summer circuit in relief appearances at PG events. He also has a power breaking ball in the 76-81 mph range that he can manipulate the shape to both righties and lefties. A prototypical power right-handed pitcher that goes right at hitters with power stuff at the backend of a bullpen.

‘30 UTL Chase Jelks (GA) lifts this one deep into the gap & rolls around the bags for a triple. Loose LH swing w/ feel to lift. #DontBootTheLoot @PG_Georgia pic.twitter.com/leF4GMTawJ — Perfect Game Youth (@PGYouthBB) April 4, 2026 Chase Jelks (2030, Atlanta, Ga.) put together a great weekend for The Dream 14u Black in their run to a championship game appearance, hitting .444 with two triples and a double along with three RBI. He controlled the zone throughout the event in the box and finished with a 6:1 BB:K ratio because of it while also swiping five bags as well. It was a strong showing for Jelks, something that’s becoming common this spring in PG events.    ‘30 MIF Cohen Carter (TN) hits this one on the screws into the gap for a triple.

College Players of the Week: April 21

April 21st Perfect Game/Player of the Week:  Tague Davis, IF, Louisville  The Louisville Cardinals (22-18) haven’t been able to get themselves in much of a groove this spring, their longest winning streak is 5-games, and they are (4-6) in their last 10-games.  The issue has not been the offense as the Cardinals are averaging over 8-runs per game and Tague Davis is leading the club in virtually every offensive category.  His calling card is his 70-grade power and that was on display last weekend in their series against Cal.  In the three-game series, Davis went 7 for 12, scoring 4 runs, launching 5 home runs and collected 7 RBIs.  The 6-4/220 lefthanded hitter from West Chester, PA has a pure stroke, is one of the premier power hitters in the nation and has significantly improved his plate discipline from a year ago.  After his big weekend, he is...

As the old saying goes, “all good things must come to an end” and that was the case last Tuesday when UCLA (36-3) saw their 27-game win streak come to an end in a shutout loss to UCSB.  However, the No. 1 team in the land still has their 21-game winning streak in Big Ten to protect, as they have started off league play without a single blemish.  The Bruins will remain atop our poll this week and their historical start to the season roll on.  The UNC Tarheels (33-7-1) move up to No. 2 this week after they made their biggest statement of the year by taking the weekend series from now No. 4 Georgia Tech (32-7).  No. 3 Texas (30-8) and No. 5 Georgia (32-9) both went (3-1) on the week and won their SEC series to stay in contention for the regular season title.  Florida State (28-11) had a nice bounce back (4-0) week and re-enter the Top 10 at No. 8 this...

Coppy's Corner: April 16 POY Deep Dive

Each week I huddle with Vinnie Cervino and Craig Cozart  to discuss Top-25 rankings and Players of the Week. In Coppy’s Corner, I dive deeper into these Players of the Week, providing analysis from 20+ years working in baseball front offices at the highest level.   Player of the Week: Jaquae Stewart – Texas State University  If you squint a little bit, you can see some Josh Naylor or Dominic Smith in Jaquae Stewart, with a stout build like a more powerful version of the teacup from the children’s song. Lately, the Sun Belt Conference has been child’s play for Stewart as he has been on fire showing an improved hit approach and power that tracks more with his 2024 performance at Northwest Florida State College than with his 2025 experience at the University of Texas. It’s tough for any player to jump from a JUCO in Florida to the big stage...

Since I first saw him as a sophomore, Gomez-Gudiño has long been one of my favorite prospects in the state. The backstop features a super physical frame at 6-foot-0, 215-pounds with a thick lower half and strong forearms. Defensively, Gomez-Gudiño has always stood out. He moves well for his size behind the plate and receives with confident hands. The catch-and-throw ability stands out. Gomez-Gudiño looks to be aggressive and will back pick runners often.

Another week of undefeated weeks for our top 4 ranked teams. Joining them in the top 5, coming off an undefeated week of their own, is Florence-Darlington, a team we have consistently had as a top 10 team all season long. Cloud County and Midland College continue to put together strong weeks and climb the rankings each week it seems. Jumping into the rankings this week on the strength of a 15-game winning streak is Seminole State (OK). And Linn Benton makes the top 25 for a 2nd consecutive week and looks like the top team in the NWAC this spring. Plenty of high-level matchups at the JUCO level for some of the top teams in the county this next week.  Rk.

Welcome to this week's small school baseball rankings, covering NCAA Division II, the NAIA, and NCAA Division III. As the calendar turns toward the final weeks of the regular season, the urgency is real across all three levels — teams are running out of weekends to build their cases, and the extended postseason invitations that every program is chasing don't go to programs that peak in March. The next few weeks of results will carry more weight than anything that happened before spring break, and the postseason committees in all three divisions are watching closely. Every series dropped to a team you should beat, every road sweep you let get away — it all matters now in a way it simply didn't two months ago. What you'll also notice as you read through the breakdowns below is that the numbers are doing more of the heavy lifting in how these rankings are constructed. Run...
