High School Top 50: 41-50

41. Charlotte Catholic (Charlotte, N.C.) 

2024 Record:
23-10 
Head Coach: Eddie Hull 



Notable Prospect(s): 3B Matt McKnight (North Carolina), RHP Alex Hoffman (Virginia Tech), RHP Quinn ORourke, OF Jonathan Fijalkowski, OF John Hucko 

Charlotte Catholic rattled off 20+ wins a year ago and they bring back some of the top talent in the state in 2025. They have a pair of junior arms that have as good of stuff as anyone in RHP Alex Hoffman and RHP Quinn ORourke. Both have high octane stuff with nasty breaking balls and look primed and ready to put up big numbers on the mound. North Carolina signee and senior corner infielder Matt McKnight will almost certainly throw up monster numbers this spring after a strong year a season ago. They have an extremely talented outfield as well in sophomore John Hucko and senior Jonathan Fijalkowski. It’s one of the more talented rosters in North Carolina coming into 2025 and with the two arms they have leading the charge, it was impossible to keep them outside of the top-50 to start the year.  

42. Fayetteville (Fayetteville, Ark.) 

2024 Record:
26-7 
Head Coach: Scott Gallagher 

Notable Prospect(s): SS Landon Schaefer (Arkansas), OF Jaison Delamar (Arkansas), RHP Mark Brissey (Arkansas), OF Charlie Graves, C Landon Holzhauer 

Fayetteville put together a strong season a year ago, finishing up with a 26-7 record but they didn’t accomplish the ultimate goal of winning a state title. Coming into 2025, that’s exactly what they have their eyes set on and they have to be the preseason favorites to do just that. They’re led by a trio of Arkansas commits who all bring something a little different to the table in SS Landon Schaefer, OF Jaison Delamar and RHP Mark Brissey. Delamar has shown plenty of intrigue as a two-way player, Schaefer is one of the top ranked players in the country, and Brissey has some high-octane stuff on the mound, more than capable of putting up big numbers this spring. They also have a pair of other highly ranked seniors in Charlie Graves and Landon Holzhauer that are looking to have a big spring as well. It’s a fun roster with star power and they have as good of a chance as anyone at winning a state title in 2025. 

43. Edwardsville (Edwardsville, Ill.) 

2024 Record: 32-9 
Head Coach: Tim Funkhouser 

Notable Prospect(s): OF Joseph Chiarodo (Alabama), OF Danny Story, SS Lucas Krebs (Illinois), RHP Tyler Powell, RHP Anthony Eberlin (TCU), RHP Chase Milburn 

Winning at Edwardsville has become the norm but it’s been a few seasons since they went back-to-back in 2022 and 2023. They have the roster to win another one this year as well with a host of arms set to lead the charge. They have a trio of upperclass arms that all bring great stuff to the staff. Senior right-hander Tyler Powell looks set to lead the staff along with Another Eberlin and Chase Milburn rounding things out. They also have four seniors on the offensive side that are highly ranked, headlined by Joseph Chiarodo who signed with Alabama a few months ago. It’s a senior led group that has been through the gauntlet and they’re looking to get their hands back on that trophy in 2025.   

44. Faith Lutheran (Las Vegas, Nev.) 

2024 Record: 24-9-1 
Head Coach: David Anderson 

Notable Prospect(s): SS Rookie Shepard (Miami), SS Macen Collura (Arizona State), 3B Kingston Kela (TCU), OF Ace Hansen (Wofford), OF Nathan Keyes (BYU), RHP Jordan Watkins (Air Force), OF Joseph Legat, RHP Keegan Burke, RHP Cash Martin, C Cooper Offermann 

Faith Lutheran once again comes into the year with significant amounts of buzz around it as they return some of their most important pieces from a season ago. Headlining the group is a top-5 player in the 2026 class in Rookie Shepard. They have a host of other impactful juniors in Macen Collura and Kingston Kela along with three seniors ranked at 500 in Ace Hansen, Nathan Keyes, and Jordan Watkins. Sophomore right-handers Keegan Burke and Cash Martin both bring exciting stuff to the staff along with freshman catcher Cooper Offermann looking to make an impact in his first spring in high school. There’s a lot of buzz around this Faith Lutheran roster and for good reason as they bring back some of the most talented players in the country in 2025.  

45. Cathedral Catholic (San Diego, Calif.) 

2024 Record: 23-10 
Head Coach: Gary Remiker 

Notable Prospect(s): OF Benjamin Trey Gudoy (UCLA), SS Alex Harrington (Stanford), OF Hunter Harrington (Stanford), LHP Owen Smyth, LHP Jose Partida, 1B Maxwell Stewart, SS Kaden Kuhn 

Cathedral Catholic was one of the higher ranked programs in the country a year ago and return a large portion of their firepower for 2025. The offense on paper looks set up for a strong year as they’ll be led by senior outfielder and UCLA signee Benjamin Trey Gudoy. They also have two of the top ranked players in the 2026 class in Alex and Hunter Harrington, both coming off impressive showings on the circuit in 2024. They also bring back another junior in Kaden Kuhn as well as sophomore first baseman Maxwell Stewart. Senior left-hander Owen Smyth will get a chunk of the innings along with uber-talented sophomore left-hander Jose Partida in line to get a good chunk as well. It’s a well-rounded roster that is looking to replicate a strong season a year ago.  

46. Thompson (Alabaster, Ala.) 

2024 Record: 29-12 
Head Coach: Frankie Perez 

Notable Prospect(s): RHP Ma'Kale Holden (Alabama), RHP Ian Hillary (Alabama State), RHP Wyatt Williams (Alabama), MIF Ashton Blair 

Thompson came a few wins shy of a state title a year ago and bring back a loaded pitching staff that will look to carry them to a state title. Headlining the group is senior right-hander and Alabama signee Ma’Kale Holden, who can run the fastball into the upper-90s. A pair of other seniors in Alabama State signee Ian Hillary and Alabama signee Wyatt Williams round out the staff, giving them one of the more impressive rotations in the state. On the offensive side, they’ll rely heavily on senior middle infielder Ashton Blair, who’s coming off a strong campaign a year ago in their deep run through the playoffs. It’s an impressive staff on the mound that they’ll rely on heavily to try to capture their first state championship in school history.  

47. Harvard-Westlake (Studio City, Calif.) 

2024 Record: 27-5-1 
Head Coach: Jared Halpert 

Notable Prospect(s): OF James Tronstein (Stanford), SS Cade Goldstein (UCSB), 3B Jack Laffitte (Michigan), OF Ira Rootman, RHP Evan Alexander (Penn), OF Ethan Price, C Drew Rico, RHP James Venick  

Harvard-Westlake, one of the perineal powerhouses on the west coast, lost a chunk of their production on both sides of things from a year ago but as they usually do, return some interesting pieces that should make for a fun year in Studio City. Offensively, they have a pair of seniors leading the charge in UCSB signee Cade Goldstein and Michigan signee Jack Laffitte. They also bring back one of the top ranked players in the country in the 2026 class in James Tronstein as well as sophomore outfielder Ira Rootman. On the mound it will be a young group that will look to throw up quality innings for some of their first times in one of the most grueling high school schedules in the country. It will be an offensively led group that will look to throw up big run totals throughout the year.  

48. Center Grove (Greenwood, Ind.) 

2024 Record: 27-3
Head Coach: Keith Hatfield 

Notable Prospect(s): OF Drake McClurg (Indiana), SS Gannon Grant (Tennessee), 1B Kobe Cherry, RHP Kellen Thomson (Ball State) 

Center Grove comes into the 2025 season with some buzz around it after a strong season a year ago, something that has become common in Greenwood. They’ll have a two-headed monster of underclassmen in the lineup in sophomore Drake McClurg and junior Gannon Grant, both being committed to P4 programs. Kobe Cherry is another sophomore that provides some power in the heart of the lineup and will be looking to have a big spring. Ball State signee Kellen Thomson looks set to lead the staff along with providing some impactful AB’s on the offensive side. It’s an intriguing group with a host of highly ranked offensive weapons that is looking to win a state title in 2025.  
 
49. Marist (Atlanta, Ga.) 

2024 Record: 29-7 
Head Coach: Mark Holmes 

Notable Prospect(s): OF Martin Shelar (Mississippi State), 3B Jack Richerson, RHP Jamie Vicens (Georgia Tech), OF John Loudon (Navy), OF Noah Gerrick (Wofford), SS Jack Euart (Wofford), 1B Xavier Byams, 3B Roshan Bullard, SS Sean Walsh 

Marist comes into the year with some significant steam as their junior heavy roster from a year ago comes into their senior year with their eyes set on a state championship title. They have one of the top ranked right-handers in the state leading their staff in Georgia Tech signee Jamie Vicens along with a host of other veteran arms along the staff. It’s a deep group offensively with power up and down the lineup. John Loudon, Noah Gerrick, Jack Euart, and Xavier Byams are the seniors that headline the offense along with Martin Shelar, Jack Richerson, Roshan Bullard, and Sean Walsh being the impact juniors offensively. We’re high on Marist to start the year as they look to be in a good spot to capture their first state championship since 2021.  

50. Stony Brook (Stony Brook, N.Y.) 

2024 Record: 19-7 
Head Coach: Jonathan Brewer

Notable Prospect(s): OF Jordan Serrano (Wake Forest), S Aiden Ruiz (Vanderbilt), SS Larry Hotaling (Villanova), RHP Nick Parker, RHP Leo Vitarelli (Winthrop), OF Aaron Artsen, RHP Christopher Nell (Legigh), C Julian Martinez, C Colin Raymond 

Stony Brook is coming off their first state championship in program history a season ago and bring back a large chunk of production from last year’s roster. Jordan Serrano will be one of the main catalysts for the offense in 2025 along with fellow senior middle infielder Larry Hotaling. They also have a top-100 player in the 2026 class in Aiden Ruiz who’s coming off monstrous performances throughout 2024. It’s a senior led group on the mound in Nick Parker, Leo Vitarelli and Christopher Nell who bring good stuff and leadership to the roster. They also welcomed some impact freshman to the roster in two of the top ranked catchers in the 2028 class in Julian Martinez and Colin Raymond. It’s a well-rounded group with quality depth that is looking to go back-to-back in 2025.

Complete Class of 2027 Rankings With the end of the summer and fall seasons behind us, it was time for a quick refresh of the 2027 class rankings. Below you'll be able to read about some of the biggest risers up the board, led by North Carolina outfielder John Hucko who jumped more than 110 spots to now sit at No. 20 overall.  John Hucko, OF, Charlotte, N.C. Previous Rank: 132 | Current Rank: 20 Hucko makes a huge leap into the top-20 players in the class after a dominating showing in Jupiter.

Hucko is a name that cemented his prospect status in Jupiter and will be a name to follow for next year’s MLB Draft. Elyjah Mason, SS, Lake Forest, Calif. Previous Rank: 71 |...

Texas American Dominates for the 12U All-State Select Championship A run-rule, 11-3 victory over California National sealed the deal for Texas American’s 12U PG National All-State Select Championship win. 6 different players combined for Texas American’s 11 total runs - Ishmael Ruiz knocked in 2 runs with a double in the bottom of the second, Cannon Hughes knocked in 5 runs with 2, 2-run home runs in the first and second innings and an RBI walk to seal the game. Though it’s clear Texas American’s offense was explosive, right-handed pitcher Martin Vazquez did his part on the mound, striking out 6 batters and only dealing 1 walk in his 4 innings and 61 pitches of work. Earlier in the tournament, Lucas Bingham, the tournament’s MVPitcher, struck out 11 batters over 6.1 innings in his outing - and despite that impressive stat line - Bingham said he was not...

Florida National got off to a hot start in Monday’s championship game against Texas National. Scoring all their runs in the first and second inning, Florida National held off Texas National and won 5-3 for the 14U PG National All-State Select Championship title. An electric and fun-filled weekend all led up to this final game on Field 3 at Premier Baseball of Texas. The players geared up under the lights for what would surely be another great meeting between stacked teams. Texas National was up to bat first, but Florida’s pitcher, Lucas Diaz, struck out 2 batters in a row before fielding a ground ball for the third out. Though the bottom of the first started with a strikeout for Florida National, Diaz reached first base on a dropped passed ball and Jayden Portes got on with a walk. With two on and only one out, Florida National was primed to pounce. Lucas Viera singled to...

2027 MLB Draft Board: Top 200 2027 MLB Draft Reports: 1-100   101. Cooper Williams | LHP | LSU | L-L | Alvin, TX Williams is a lanky, projectable left-hander, standing at 6-foot-4, 200-pounds. A loose, whip arm hides the ball well into a tough low 3/4 slot. The fastball sits in the low-90’s. Both a sweeping slider and curveball are spun well.
