Titles Earned at Northeast Spring Qualifier

14U Super25 Northeast Spring Super Qualifier

The Tri State Arsenal 2026 Marucci bats were on fire this weekend, as the Arsenal would take home the 14U major title of the Super25 Northeast Spring Super Qualifier.

Totaling 33 runs scored throughout their four games, the Arsenal would put up 10 runs during the championship game matchup against the Garden State Ducks and ultimately won by a 10-2 margin. They put up an early four-spot in the bottom of the first, as Tri State would put themselves in the driver’s seat early, continuing to add runs throughout to give themselves a cushion.



Tri State received contributions up and down their lineup the entire weekend, with great approaches at the plate and timely hitting. Chris Graff was one of the many standouts for the Arsenal as his hot weekend would continue in the championship game, collecting his third multi-hit game of the weekend as he went 2-for-3, finishing his weekend with a .636 average, five stolen bases and seven runs scored.

Frank Soos would join Graff, as he too would go 2-for-3 in the final game of the weekend, also collecting his third multi-hit game and finishing with a .636 average and six RBI to his credit. Soos’ RBI single in the first inning would ultimately get the Arsenal rolling offensively and set the tone from the five-hole.

Brady Abate would take MVP honors for his weekend with an impressive state line that included eight RBI, five runs scored and a .556 average. With an inside-the-park grand slam in Tri State’s first game of the weekend, the cleanup man for the Arsenal would do his job all weekend in driving in runs, recording at least one RBI in all four games this weekend.

Tri State pitchers would only surrender seven runs over the weekend, as Thomas Conroy, Carter Bucci, Jared Kligerman, and Shane Monaghan would all turn in quality starts for the Arsenal, minimizing the damage and allowing their offense to give them a cushion in each game. Conroy would take home MV-Pitcher honors with his complete game effort in game one, an eight-strikeout performance in which he only allowed one run and scattered six hits over seven innings of work. Conroy utilized his arsenal well, mixing his fastball and breaking ball effectively, keeping the Bergen Crush lineup off balance all game.
 

 
13U Super25 Northeast Spring Qualifier

The Diamond Jacks Super 13s upset the top-seeded East Coast Ghost in a tightly-contested, back-and-forth championship game.

The Diamond Jacks would piece together runs and capitalize on some early mistakes, getting off to an early 3-0 lead. The Ghost would counter by putting up a four-spot in the bottom half of the second, highlighted by a Noah Feldman two-run double, bringing home Matthew Zweidinger and Brody Mauro. The Diamond Jacks would respond and tie things back up in the top of the third, as Justin Labrador would come into score on a Michael Meyers walk. Again, the Ghost would counter in the bottom half as Jayden Lugo lined an RBI double into left, later coming in to score on a Brady Guzzie sac fly. That run made it 6-4 in favor of the Ghost heading into the fourth.

In the top of the fifth, the Diamond Jacks would put up a crooked number, thanks to four consecutive singles from Nehemiah Diaz, Wyatt Morrissey, Michael Meyers, and Nikolas Holot. The knocks would push two runs across to tie the game at 6, and a Jackson Staples sac fly with the bases loaded would plate Morrissey, giving Diamond Jacks a 7-6 lead.

The Ghost would counter again with a run in the bottom half, as RJ Conover would plate Michael Knox with a sac fly to tie things at 7.

But once again, the gritty Diamond Jacks would scratch and claw their way back into this game. Tied at seven, a two-out Morrissey single in the top of the seventh would give the Diamond Jacks late life, and he would come around to score the game’s go-ahead run on a miscue off the bat of Holot. Sandro Salomone’s two-run single a few batters later would give the Diamond Jacks more run support, as everyone in attendance knew a one-run lead was not safe in this game.

Ultimately, the Ghost would not be able to match the deficit as they had done numerous times before in this game. Another Lugo RBI double would be all they could muster, as the Diamond Jacks would come away victorious, 10-8.

Nick Do would take home the MVP award, recording a knock in all five of the Diamond Jacks' games, wrapping up his weekend with a .357 average, five runs scored, three RBI, and five stolen bases, while also taking the bump in pool play tossing four scoreless innings, collecting three punchouts. The Swiss army knife did it all for the Diamond Jacks this weekend.

Pokers Rally to Capture 16U BCS Title A hot afternoon at JetBlue Stadium in Fort Myers, Florida ended in a 9-1 victory for the Original Florida Pokers 2028 National, defeating SBA Bolts Florida 2028 National on Monday to capture the 16U BCS National Championship. A pitchers’ duel kept the game scoreless through four innings before the Pokers broke it open with a five-run fifth inning. The title marked the Pokers’ second 16U BCS Championship, adding to the championship they won in 2022. Despite a slow start to the summer, the Pokers found their stride at the right time. “We struggled a lot early in the summer, but the past few tournaments we really started turning it on,” Pokers head coach Will McCrimon said. “I’m just so proud of these kids.” Max Maynes started the game on the mound for the Pokers.

Realistic Expectations of a 1:1 Pick

Tyler Henninger
Article Image
Over the 2026 draft cycle, UCLA shortstop Roch Cholowsky was the projected No. 1 pick throughout the entire cycle. White Sox fans began #RochWatch and were already talking about when he will make it to Chicago. Now that he has been selected, Cholowsky has immediately become a Top-10 prospect in all of baseball. There is no denying the hype, and the pressure, for Chowlosky to get to the big leagues and produce at a high level.  But how realistic is that? Let’s take a look back at past 1:1 selections and see what you can expect from a No. 1 overall selection.  For this exercise, we’ll look at No. 1 overall picks from the bonus pool era, excluding Eli Willits from 2025 since this is his first full year of pro ball. That gives us 13 players selected from 2012 through 2024.  Almost All Become Big Leaguers The first thing that stands out is how successful No. 1 picks...

Following a dominant week at the 17u PG East World Series, No. 34 ranked 643 DP Cougars 17u capped off an impressive tournament run by defeating No. 2 ranked East Cobb Astros 17u, 3-2, in the championship game to claim the title. The Cougars earned the tournament's No. 1 overall seed after outscoring opponents by an absurd 59-6 throughout the week before completing their championship run with a hard-fought victory in the finale. “Always feels great to finish the year playing your best ball, especially when going up against strong competition,” 643 Head Coach Danny Pralgo said. “We did so many of the little things right: on the mound with location, clean on defense, bunting, 2 strike approach leading to long at bats, getting hit-by-pitches, and we had so many good outs offensively that led to moving a runner or scoring a runner. And when those things all come together in...
