College Reports: February 21

College Player Report Database


Kyson Witherspoon, RHP, Oklahoma
Witherspoon was lights out, unaffected by the freezing temperatures. Standing at a strongly built 6-foot-2, 207-pounds, the ball explodes out of the hand and he is a plus athlete on the mound. Although he does have the ability to blow it by you, it was the ability to pitch that really stood out Friday afternoon versus Minnesota. The right-hander opened up at 94-96 with plus arm speed and stayed right in that range for all seven frames, peaking at 97 in the sixth. After allowing a leadoff home run, he allowed only two baserunners and the stuff just kept getting better. Witherspoon showed plus feel for his secondaries, spinning a slider as well as a tight cutter. The slider showed decent sweep and sharpness at 82-84 as he commanded it, working it in and out. The cutter worked at 86-90 and he exhibited the ability to manipulate it’s shape. Both pitches proved to be swing-and-miss offerings and very effective to righties and lefties. Witherspoon also threw a handful of changeups at 89-91, selling it well with subtle fade and picked up a left-handed strikeout on the pitch. He repeats the delivery and showed plus command of the whole arsenal. The Florida native is a fiery competitor and has a ton of confidence in his stuff. He finished the day throwing seven one-run innings while allowing three hits with 12 strikeouts and no walks on just 90 pitches. Witherspoon has made steady strides ever since getting to Oklahoma and has looked like a first rounder early in the season.




 Cole Selvig, RHP, Minnesota 
Selvig, a sophomore and Wisconsin native, transfers in from Texas and is now a bit closer to home. He had the swing-and-miss stuff working in the 30 degree weather, punching out seven over four 2/3 while allowing two runs on three hits. Standing at a filled out 6-foot, 205-pounds, the delivery is compact and pretty simple, throwing from an over-the-top slot. The fastball worked at mostly 89-90, topping at 91 and was mostly straight, featuring occasional cut from his high slot. The slider in the mid-80s was the best secondary offering, garnering a good number of whiffs with short break. Selvig also flashed a curveball that showed 11-5 shape in the 79-81 range. The changeup flashed some depth in the low-80s to round out the full mix. The righty mixes all four well and was able to miss a lot of Oklahoma bats thanks to the pitchability.


Jay Woolfolk, RHP, Virginia
Woolfolk comes back for his senior year at Virginia and has been a strong contributor across 134 innings entering the year. After spending his first two seasons as a dominant reliever, he picked up seven starts in 2024 and although their were some glimpses, the righty did not see the same level of success. Woolfolk enters 2025 as the Friday guy for the ‘Hoos, looking to build on the starting experience he picked up last year. Woolfolk stands at a strong 6-foot, 200-pounds and as a former quarterback at Virginia, is a great athlete. The fastball held at 91-92, topping at 94 with run and some sink. The slider is the go-to, operating in the 85-87 range with tight spin and short break. The pitch served as the out pitch and he showed good feel to place it glove side, tunneling and running it off the plate to righties. He also flashed some changeups at 84, but struggled to find feel for it. The right-hander finished tossing three innings while allowing seven hits on one earned run with six strikeouts. The fastball-slider combo is capable of missing bats in short stints, but he will need to develop a consistent third offering in the starting role.

Justin Henschel, RHP, FGCU (Jr./’25 Elig.)

Henschel has carved out the role of the ace of this FGCU team over the last year and has started out 2025 looking like it with back-to-back shutout starts, totaling 12 strikeouts across 10 innings of work thus far. It’s a projectable profile given his size at 6’3 and the good bit of athleticism to the operation, both in how he moves down the mound and in how well he controls his body. The stuff is good as he’ll regularly sit in the mid-90s with his heater, mostly 93-95 in this look, while being able to effectively work both sides of the plate. The best pitch might be the slider which he throws pretty firm at 85-86 with spin north of 2400, getting hard lateral bite, enough to miss bats or pick up called strikes. He did show feel for a changeup almost exclusively to left-handed hitters that is an effective third pitch. It’s not the most overpowering fastball, but it’s still mid-90s with strikes and projection, making him a name that’ll get looks over the course of the spring and a potential top 5 round pick.


Eddie Smink, RHP, Stony Brook (Jr./’25 Elig.)

Similar to Henschel, Smink is the go-to guy for Stony Brook when it comes to being their reliable Friday night guy and he did well at matching with five solid innings of work as well, expanding on what was a good first start of the year last week. He’s not a big and long at 6’0/240, but he has a solid foundation and the stuff jumps out. He was 92-94 for the most part in this look, producing it from a pretty compact release and getting good jump out of the hand. Off it, it’s more of a balance between breaking ball and changeup as he can land both effectively, the former in the upper-70s with spin getting north of 2600 RPMs. He throws consistent strikes and misses a good bit of bats as he’s up to 13 strikeouts through his nine innings on the year so far, it’s just a matter of effectively commanding the fastball to stay away from hard contact that’ll allow him to get deep into outings as the year goes on.


Evan Dempsey, OF, FGCU (So./’26 Elig.)

Dempsey is coming off a great year where he was one of the best freshmen in the ASUN hitting nearly .340 and he’s likely to be one of the most impactful hitters for FGCU again in 2025. He had a pair of hits in the opening game against Stony Brook, showing both his ability to control the zone and handle good pitching with who the hits came off. He has good size, bat speed and impacts the ball a good bit; if he can maintain his athleticism as he naturally gets a bit stronger, and potentially starts hitting the ball out of the yard, he’ll have a chance to establish himself as a prospect for next year’s draft.


George Adams, LHP, Stony Brook (Fr./’27 Elig.)

Adams got the ball for a couple innings of relief, and although he eventually stumbled late and unfortunately gave up the lead, and a grand slam thereafter, the stuff was good, and he did well in a big spot for the first two innings. He’s a 6’2/180 left-hander who is up around 90 with his fastball with a pretty clean/quick arm, both things that could see a continued rise on the velocity side, while the changeup is a really effective pitch given the action and his ability to sell it. He’s already shown the ability to miss bats in a couple stints this year, so it’ll be interesting to see how much the stuff progresses given he’s just barely 19 now.

With a postseason run for the ages, the Oklahoma Sooners (43-23) took home the National Championship and naturally finish the 2026 season as our No. 1 team in the land.  It is the third national title for the Sooners, playing in their 12th CWS and making their fourth championship series appearance.  They add to previous national titles won in 1951 and 1994 and did it by taking the most difficult path of any team in this year’s tournament.  In the NCAA Tournament, Oklahoma took down national seeds, No. 2 Georgia Tech twice, No. 3 Georgia twice, No. 5 UNC twice, No. 7 Alabama and No. 15 Kansas twice.  This was the second time that head coach Skip Johnson has led the Sooners to the CWS Championship Series since 2022 and the first time he has taken home the crown.  The North Carolina Tarheels (54-14) was one win away from their first national title and finish...

Quinton Hall

Asher Contreras (2030 | Las Vegas, NV) The 5-foot-10, 170-pound right-handed hitter and outfielder was one of the most dangerous hitters in the tournament for Wow Factor Nv 2030, stuffing the stat sheet while displaying an impressive combination of power and speed. He finished the weekend with 9 hits, including two doubles and a home run, while driving in seven runs and scoring five more.

Performance Baseball Rolls On

Kinley Kitchens
Article Image
Championship teams often reveal themselves when the game isn’t going their way. Performance Baseball 2028/Milwaukee Brewers Scout Team did exactly that. Trailing Florida Burn 2028 Scout through four innings, the Brewers refused to panic. Instead, they relied on timely hitting, consistent pitching, and an unselfish approach at the plate, rallying a five-run fifth inning before pulling away for a 9-5 victory to clinch their spot in the semifinals. The comeback was fueled by contributions throughout the lineup. Six different players drove in runs, including two RBIs each from Aiden Capobianco and Cameron Massey, while Matthew Heredia, Parker Weston, Ethan Smith, and Aj Bonnette each added an RBI of their own. On the mound, Derek Wenzel set the tone with 3.2 solid innings before Ethan Smith shut the door in relief, helping preserve the comeback victory. Although the Brewers have had a...

Kinley Kitchens
Article Image
On the second day of the 2026 Perfect Game National Elite Championship, one swing turned heads across the ballpark. The next one brought everyone to a stop. With Wow Factor Nation 16U trailing midway through its matchup against Sandlot Scout Team 2028, Micheal O'Connor launched a solo home run to spark the offense. Just one batter later, Aaron Frink stepped into the box and sent another ball over the fence, delivering back-to-back home runs that quickly became one of the most talked about moments of the tournament’s opening days.
