College Player, Pitcher of the Week

March 7th

Perfect Game/Rawlings Player of the Week:

Wyatt Langford, Florida

For the second week in a row a Florida Gator is named Player of the Week as Wyatt Langford takes home the award coming off a monster 5 game stretch. The junior outfielder from Trenton, Florida was instrumental in his team’s series victory over instate rival Miami Hurricanes. Langford carried a batting average of .500 (10-20) on the week, scoring 9 runs, adding in 2 walks, 2 doubles, 4 home runs and a total of 8 RBI. Considered by the industry to have one of the most comprehensive 5-tool skill sets at the collegiate level, he continues to push himself towards the top of the upcoming 2023 MLB Amateur Draft.



Perfect Game/Rawlings Pitcher of the Week:

Kiefer Lord, Washington

The Washington Huskies are off to a tremendous 9-2 start to the season and Kiefer Lord has been a major factor in his team’s success. The 6-foot-3, 195-pound right-hander from San Carlos, California has really come into his own this spring, anchoring a pitching staff that is one of the nation’s most complete. In his last start, Kiefer threw 6 perfect innings, retiring 18 straight batters and 10 of those outs came via the strikeout. He uses his lively mid-90s fastball, which has approached 100 mph, to dominate hitters and backs that up with a sharp two-plane breaker. On the season he is 2-0 in 3 starts with an ERA of 1.59, only allowing 9 hits over 17 innings pitches with a sparkling 26:3 strikeout-to-walk ratio.


February 27th

Perfect Game/Rawlings Player of the Week:

Jac Caglianone, Florida

When there is talk of the next coming of Shohei Ohtani when referring to the skill set Jac Caglianone possesses, there must be some loud numbers to back it up. Well, based on the show he put on this week, the comparisons are quite honestly warranted. During their 5 games last week, he hit .476, scoring 7 runs, collecting an amazing 6 home runs, and driving in 10 runs. The power numbers are monstrous, and it is worth noting that that all three round-trippers he hit on Sunday registered at 100+ mph off the bat, the highest of which was an impressive 118 mph. By the way, he was also the starting pitcher for the Gators on Sunday and the southpaw was living in the upper-90s with his fastball.

Perfect Game/Rawlings Pitcher of the Week:

Noah Hall, South Carolina

Doing the heavy lifting in their 1-0 victory over Penn this weekend, Noah Hall was flawless as he went 8 innings pitch, allowing 3 hits, no runs, no walks, while striking out 12 batters on 98 pitches. After being drafted in the 20th round by the Brewers last spring, Hall decided to return to Columbia and made significant gains in every aspect of his craft. He has used his mid-90s heater, tight slider, and wipeout changeup to dominate opposing hitters this season so far. After two starts, he is 2-0 with an ERA of 0.68 in 13.1 IP, only allowing 5 hits, 1 earned run, 1 walk and he has struck out 16. Hall is a big reason his club is (8-0) in 2023 and a team in consideration for our top-25.


February 21

Perfect Game/Rawlings Player of the Week:

Nick Kurtz, Wake Forest

As a pre-season Perfect Game All-American and one of our staff’s picks to win this year’s Golden Spikes Award; Nick Kurtz had plenty of anticipation surrounding him on Opening Weekend. The 6-foot-5, 235-pound lefty more than lived up to the billing as he slashed .500/.684/1.500, launching 4 home runs, driving in 10 runs and his 7 walks are more than twice his strikeout total already. By the way, with his length and glove work, he is one of the best defenders in the nation as well. Kurtz and company went 4-0 on the weekend, as they scored 45 runs, hit 13 home runs, and only committed 1 error on defense.

Perfect Game/Rawlings Pitcher of the Week:

Paul Skenes, LSU

Talk about pressure and expectations, Paul Skenes had it coming from every possible angle this weekend. Being the most high-profile transfer in the nation, the Opening Day starter for the No. 1 team in the land and taking the mound in front of over 10,000 fans and countless MLB representatives in the stands, that can be daunting. All the 6-foot-6, 245-pound right did was go 6.0 IP, allowing 3 hits, no runs, 1 free pass while striking out an incredible 12 batters on 98 pitches. By the way, his first pitch of the game was a fastball at 99 mph and his last of the day was a heater at 98 mph. That is surely living up to the hype.

2026 Staff Picks: College Edition

2026 College Preview Index With the D-I season opening up right around the corner, our staff came together and took a shot at who they'd pick within 7 different categories. Most are self explanatory while the "Sleeping GIant" category is in reference to a draft prospect outside of our latest Top 50 on the MLB Draft Board. It's also worth noting that once a player was selected for a category, he was unavailable for others to choose, outside of the Golden Spikes category, where we do see some double-ups.  Enjoy the weekend, there's sure to be plenty of excitement as baseball is officially back across the country at all collegiate levels!  Category Cohen Sutherland Cervino Billock Henninger Rankin Russo Impact Freshman Mason Braun Angel Cervantes Cooper Underwood Marcos Paz JD Stein Alec Blair Sam Cozart Impact Transfer Jake Schaffner Will Gasparino Brady Frederick Andrew Whalen...

Mid-Atlantic All Region & Top Tools

The Mid-Atlantic Region lost its only Perfect Game All-American when catcher Andrew Costello left his Pennsylvania high school early and enrolled at Wake Forest for the spring semester.  The Region ends up being dominated by underclassmen, with seven juniors and even a pair of talented sophomores getting recognition. The story of the spring could very well be watching the young power arms in the Region come outdoors and show their talents on the mound.  Pennsylvania juniors Cole Kuhn and Trent Lutz have been getting lots of off-season attention along with New Jersey senior Alex Weingartner. New Jersey has a trio of high schools represented in the Perfect Game Pre-Season Top 50 High School Rankings.  Delbarton HS, behind a very strong junior class, leads the group at 29th overall, followed DePaul Catholic HS at 41st and Gloucester Catholic at 46th.

Coastal All Region & Top Tools

COASTAL REGION (NC, SC, VA, WV)  The first thing that stands out about the players on the Coastal Region team is that this is undoubtedly the fastest All-Region Team in the country.  There are four or five players who could legitimately have 80 grades on their running speed from the region and all have other tools to back up their speed. Another thing that jumps out is the quality of the juniors on the team.  While the region features only one 2025 PG All-American in left-handed pitcher Carson Bolemon, there are six juniors on the All-Region team who are ranked in the top 34 in the 2027 class, with plenty more talented underclassmen just behind them.  Three region high schools break into the Top 50 in the Perfect Game Pre-Season High School Rankings.  Charlotte Catholic at 33rd overall and Metrolina Christian Academy at 42nd represent the North Carolina schools...

SOUTHWEST REGION (AZ, NM, NV, UT, CO)  The most dominant tool in the Southwest Region for the 2026 season is undoubtedly power at the plate, as most players featured below not only have the size and bat speed to drive the ball but have put up the numbers as well.  While that isn’t exactly surprising given that virtually the entire region plays at elevation, it certainly stands out on the individual top prospects. The Region features four Perfect Game All-Americans in OF Ryan Harwood, IF Rookie Shepard and C Alain Gomez-Gudino and RHP Dylan Blomker.  The 2027 class is looking very promising as well, with four juniors gaining mention on the All-Region team below and Arizona in particular having a very talented class.  Keep an eye out especially for 2027 3B Colton Floyd (Corona Del Sol HS, Ariz.), one of the best and biggest power hitters in that class.

DII Top 25: February 11

Preseason rankings are less about certainty and more about expectation. Experience, continuity, and proven production tend to win in Division II baseball, but every spring reminds us how thin the margins can be. The teams below enter 2026 carrying varying combinations of momentum, pressure, and opportunity. Some are defending a standard. Others are chasing it.  At this level, projection is rarely about raw talent alone. It is shaped by familiarity, by the players who have been through a season together, by staffs that know how to manage the quiet stretches as well as the loud ones. Injuries, turnover, and postseason moments leave marks that don’t always show up in the numbers, but they shape how teams respond when games tighten.  The programs at the top of these rankings carry more than returning statistics. They carry memory and momentum. They remember what it felt like...
