On the mound in the starting role for Elite Squad Gulf South 17u was Riley Marcotte (2023, New Iberia, La.). The 6-foot-2, 175-pound LHP was special for most of the game, holding a potent Dirtbags offense in check until the end. Using a compact delivery where he coils his upper body at balance and hides the ball in transition, he made high leverage pitches when needed.
