Collegiate All-Americans & Postseason Awards

Vincent Cervino
Craig Cozart
Player of the Year: Roch Cholowsky, UCLA

Rewind to 2023 when Cholowsky was finishing his incredible high school career in Chandler, Arizona, there was serious doubt he would make it to campus in Westwood. Considered one of the best shortstops in the nation, there was strong interest in the MLB Draft but as fate would have it, the Perfect Game All-American would go undrafted. He put together a solid freshman campaign earning Perfect Game Second Team Freshman All-American honors and setting the stage for his breakout season in 2025. With his club making their debut in Big 10 play, Cholowsky has put together an epic season and lead the Bruins back to the College World Series for the first time since 2013. The 6-2/200 sophomore anchors a defensive unit that is one of the Top 10 fielding teams in the nation and is the center piece of a deep and powerful lineup. Heading to Omaha, he is batting .367 with an impressive SLG% of .742 and an eyepopping OB% of .494 to date. Finding a different gear with his power production in ’25, Cholowsky has lashed 19 doubles and 23 home runs while driving in a team leading 72 runs. With his game coming together as it has and the projection remaining, he will be one of the favorites to be considered 1:1 in the 2026 MLB Draft and will be a major impact if the Bruins make a run at the National Title this week in Omaha.

Pitcher of the Year: Liam Doyle, Tennessee

After making a couple career stops at Coastal Carolina and Ole Miss before finding his home in Knoxville with the University of Tennessee, the explosive LHP from Derry, New Hampshire put it all together in 2025. One of the most intense and competitive pitchers you will ever see, the 6-2/220 junior put together the type of season that will see his name etched in the record books for years to come. Using arguably the best lefthanded fastball in the college game this year, Doyle generated an upper-90s heater with a nation leading 70% whiff rate. He backed that up with a devastating mid-80s slider, tight upper-80s cutter and the occasional contact deadening splitter. Add these offerings together and you understand why the ace was in the Top 25 in most pitching categories and currently leads the nation in strikeouts. Making a total of 19 appearances, 17 of which were starts, Doyle finished the season with a (10-4) record, also recording a save and with a sparkling 3.20 ERA while pitching in the toughest league in college baseball. Logging 95.2 inning pitched, he only surrendered 63 hits good for a paltry OBA of .184 and only issued 32 free passes. However, he is most famous for his ability to miss bats, finishing the year with 164 punchouts as he averaged 1.7 per inning. This gaudy strikeout total sets the Tennessee single season record and has gotten him on the list as one of three Dick Howser Trophy and Golden Spikes Award finalist. While the Vols fell short in their defense of their 2024 National Title, Doyle will hear his name called very early in the coming 2025 MLB Draft.



Two-Way Player of the Year: Evan Dempsey, Florida Gulf Coast

The physical demands of being a two-way player at a high-level are well documented but sophomore, Evan Dempsey did it better than anyone in the nation in 2025. The 6-2/200 lefthanded hitting outfielder/pitcher from Lithia, Florida was coming off an ASUN All-Freshman season to set the stage for his amazing second season. Handling the workload of hitting in the middle of the lineup and being in the rotation, Dempsey excelled on both sides of the ball. Making 15 appearances, 10 of them in the starting role, he finished the season with a (5-1) record and a miniscule 1.97 ERA. Over 68.2 IP, he only allowed 57 hits and put together a sparkling 75:20 strikeout-to-walk ratio. At the plate, he finished with a slash line of .309/.435/.393 legging out 18 doubles, a triple, while launching 3 home runs, collecting 30 RBI and lead the team with 14 stolen bases. The Eagles had an uncharacteristic down year in ’25 but with Dempsey leading the way they are sure to have a bounce back season in 2026.

Freshman Player of the Year: Sawyer Strosnider, TCU

In 2024, TCU struggled to the point of missing the NCAA Tournament and there was some speculation as to whether the youth of the 2025 roster would get the Horned Frogs back to where they belong. Those concerns were quickly alleviated and Strosnider, the freshman from Brock, Texas was a major reason this year’s club was a strong consideration to host the NCAA Tournament. Ultimately, they would see their season end as a 2-seed in Corvalis but the lefthanded stick of Strosnider stood out every step of the way. At 6-2/200 the outfielder has the physicality of a professional and the sweet swing that allows you to dream on him for years to come. He led the team in five major offensive categories including: batting .354, slashing 10 triples, collecting 50 RBI, slugging .646 and accumulated 137 total bases for the year. He also laced 12 doubles, 10 home runs and crossed home plate 51 times, making him the most prolific offensive freshman in the country. Scouts will be following his progress closely in the coming months and he is sure to be a 1st round talent as a draft eligible sophomore in next year’s MLB Draft.

Freshman Pitcher of the Year: Jack Ohman, Yale

Breaking into the starting rotation as a freshman at any point during the year is an amazing feat, but Ohman did so the second weekend of the year and never looked back. The 6-0/175 righthanded pitcher from Mesa, Arizona put together an amazing 2025 champaign and established himself not only as one of the best starting pitchers in the game but also a legitimate professional prospect. Armed with a fastball that sits in the 94-97 mph range, a devastating mid-80s slider and late fading changeup, Ohman went his first 6 appearances and 5 starts without allowing an earned run. Leading the nation in ERA for the entire year, he finished with a minuscule 1.34 ERA over 12 appearances and went (8-1) as his club won 9 of the 11 games he started throughout. With a high-level of pitch efficiency, Ohman logged 73.2 innings pitched, only allowing 45 hits for an OBA of .174 and put together an 87:20 strikeout-to-walk ratio. It is going to be fascinating to see how this talented arm follows up such a sparkling freshman campaign.

National Coach of the Year: Kevin Schnall, Coastal Carolina

The adage in college coaching is often said that “you never want to be the man that follows the MAN”. In other words, if you are the next head coach following in the footsteps of a coaching legend, it can often be an impossible task with unrealistic expectations. In 2024, longtime head coach Gary Gilmore retired from his 29-year stint in Conway where he won over 1,000 games and brought the athletic departments first ever National Championship. Following his departure, as expected, Kevin Schnall their longtime associate head coach was named the new head coach at his alma mater. To say the transition was seamless would be putting it lightly as the Chanticleers put together their best regular season in program history. They have won 53-games to date, which is a program record, went (26-4) in Sun Belt play as they won both the Regular Season and Conference Tournament titles. Their RPI currently sits at No. 3 in the country after rolling through the 7th hardest non-conference schedule in the nation and 54th hardest schedule overall. They hosted the first round of the NCAA Tournament and swept all 3-games before going on the road to sweep the Auburn Super Regional and are now sitting on a 23-game winning streak heading to the College World Series. This team plays with a relaxed confidence, they have one of the best rotations in the nation and with their knack for timely hitting, we should expect Coastal to make another run at a National Title.

The State of Recruiting in the Northeast

Ryan Miller

Cold weather states face unique obstacles when producing baseball talent and none persevere better than those in the Northeast. States such as New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, among others have annually funneled high-level recruits throughout the country to college baseball’s premier destinations. New England has specifically made a name for themselves, in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and occasionally Vermont or New Hampshire. Below, we look at the programs who annually land top talent from the East Coast, showcasing the vast spectrum of area competitors.   Top ACC Bidders Maintain Grasp on the Northeast    An extended look at '27 RHP Enmanuel Acevedo (NY)... @PG_Uncommitted #WWBAWorlds @PGMidAtlantic https://t.co/8uH6Lg95OL pic.twitter.com/vpQdG0G7qI — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) October 21, 2025 Duke and Virginia will be tied to the hip for the...

The game was an efficiently played affair with arms dominating on both sides. Graham Schlicht was masterful for Alpha, striking out 12 hitters over 5 dominant innings. PG All-American Julian Cazares came out of the pen blowing smoke, touching 97 mph with the fastball. On the other side, Jake Carbaugh surrendered just one hit and...

Finest in the Field: Class of 2027

Finest in the Field: Class of 2026 Elite defenders from coast to coast certainly seems to be a strength and to think you could make another top-tier team without thinking, speaks to the real depth this group possesses. The infield is a no-doubt strength of the group, but what catcher Dariel Carrion can do behind the plate is like something we haven't seen in a while in the prep ranks with an absolutely bazooka of an arm.  C: Dariel Carrion (San Juan, PR)  It isn’t often you get a catching prospect as athletic and natural as Dariel Carrion, a big reason why he holds the rank of #1 player in PR and #18 nationally. Metrics wise, the 5-foot-10, 210 pound San Juan native is all you can ask for and more, posting a sub 1.80 pop time with an 84 mph arm behind the dish. He has both contact and clear power threat on the offensive end, ending 2025 with a .337 BA and 4 HRs while also...

The Class of 2026 is one of the deeper prep classes that we have seen in a couple of years. With that being said, there is plenty of talent on the defensive side. Let’s take a look at some of the best defenders in the class.  C: Will Brick, Christian Brothers HS (Memphis, TN) Brick is a newcomer to the class after reclassifying, but immediately became the top backstop. Extremely advanced actions are shown behind the dish with impressive athleticism to go with it. Brick showcases big time arm strength and is consistently accurate on throw downs. He can make playing the position look extremely easy at times. Brick possesses all the defensive tools needed to be a premier catcher.  1B: AJ Curry, University City HS (San Diego, CA) Curry has a bigger and stronger frame with good strength throughout. He has a well-proportioned build that serves him well on the dirt. He’s...

Scout Notes: Part 1 | Part 2 Best Game I Saw: The 17u Ultimate Baseball Championship featured a thrilling matchup between the ZT National Prospects and the Trosky Brewers 2026, with the winner claiming the trophy. Both teams showcased their talent, boasting a combined 15 players committed to Division I programs. In a back-and-forth contest that highlighted standout pitching against potent lineups, ZT National ultimately held off a late comeback to secure a 5-4 victory. Justin Lopez shone for ZT National with three hits and two RBIs, while University of North Carolina commit William Myhand added two hits and two runs batted in. On the Trosky side, UCSB commit Noah Dabela kept his team competitive with an impressive performance out of the bullpen, tossing 2 and 2/3 scoreless innings. However, time ran out with ZT on top. Best Tournament Performance I Saw: Noah Jarolimek delivered...

On Tuesday night, the MLB Draft Lottery took place, and the draft order has officially been set for July. With draft slots finalized, teams can now begin narrowing in on the prospects most likely to be available when they are on the clock. From polished college players to high-upside preps, several potential targets are already emerging as ideal fits based on past draft philosophy and finalized draft position. Let’s take a look at potential targets for the six teams that were awarded a lottery pick.  1. Chicago White Sox Potential Targets:  -Roch Cholowsky, SS, UCLA -Grady Emerson, SS, Fort Worth Christian HS (Tex.) -Gio Rojas, LHP, Marjory Stoneman Douglas HS (Fla.)

Scout Notes: Part 1 Best Game I Saw: '27 OF Finnian O'Loughlin (NJ) singled oppo & came up big to walk it off w/ a 2B in B7 to complete the comeback victory. Good pwr projection & been hitting the ball hard w/ regularity. @PG_Uncommitted #UBCEast @PGMidAtlantic @TheCanesBB pic.twitter.com/wm4yrDp4SF — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) June 18, 2025 The first game that I saw this year was probably at 16U UBC- East down in West Palm Beach, Florida when Wow Factor National and Canes National faced off in an afternoon match. Both lineups were absolutely loaded up and down, but it was the pitching performances that really stood out. Both starters, Texas commit Grant Sperandio (Wow Factor) and Tennessee commit Brady Buenik (Canes) came out pumping octane, each touching 94. They both held that velocity and Sperandio neutralized the opposing order with high level stuff, holding the...

Best Game I Saw:  Feel like I may put this every year (don’t fact check me), but the PG All American Classic is always up there, I’m sure I could pick a game where I saw Seth Hernandez shove for Corona here too, but the All American Classic is always just loaded with talent and it pretty well wraps up a long summer of baseball.  Being back at Petco Park makes it even more special as it’s simply one of my favorite venues to watch a game, and seeing a group of the top high school players in the country in that yard is simply awesome.  And to have the West squad win, just makes it that much better (Yes, I’m a left coast homer).  The Underclass All Star Game kicking things off has made the event even better the last few years, and gave us a taste of what to look forward to down the road.  I’m sure Kinon Bastian will have numerous big...

College Notebook: December 5

Memphis Tigers 2025 Highlights: Head coach Matt Riser began to put his stamp on the program in his first year as skipper after leaving Southeastern Louisiana where he won over 300 games in 10 seasons. He is a proven winner and while they took their lumps at times last year, they did beat Ole Miss at home for the first time since 2001 and achieved their first conference road sweep in over a decade at Rice. Under his direction there was a significant uptick in offensive production as they slugged 68 home runs (fifth most in program history) and walked 284 times (third most in program history). They also saw massive improvements on the mound, putting together a sound rotation and the back end of the bullpen was excellent securing 16 saves. Ultimately, they would miss the American Athletic Conference tournament, but the foundation is in place for 2026 to be one of the best in recent history....
