13u National All State Notebook

Jheremy Brown
Marcus Thomas

Jackson Nave, Tennessee (2031)
Do I really need to say anything aside from the ridiculous stat line Nave posted? Four home runs, three triples, a .733/.750/2.683 slash all from the left-handed batter's box on his way to winning MVP honors. The combination of strength and bat speed already stand out and the one swing he took on an Ethan Palacios low-80s heater from 54-feet will be one of the more impressive singular swings from the event.


Ethan Palacios, Texas (2030)
Speaking of Palacios, the young Texan came out looking longer and stronger already and ambushed hitters with a hard heater that worked upwards of 84 mph, jumping out of the hand with a truly unfair slider that had opponents simply guessing at the plate. He's a primary shortstop and wasted little time making his presence felt offensively, taking the very first pitch he saw high off the batter's eye in dead center field, racing around for a triple, showing an unmatched combination of athleticism and present tools within the tournament. 



Dylan French, Texas Central (2031)
The moniker "everything is bigger in Texas" certainly applies to French as the 13 year old is already listed at a believable 6-foot-3, 185-pounds. He came out attacking hitters during his time on the mound, working in the low-80s with his fastball from a lower slot, generating heavy life through the zone, helping him average nearly 2 strikeouts per inning. 


Carlo Rivero, Arizona (2031)
There's simply nothing about Rivero that suggests he's only 13 years old, from his physicality to his on field play, the young Arizonan is able to impact a game in a variety of ways at any given moment. A left-handed hitter, Rivero was all over the barrel during his time in Houston, showcasing some of the best bat speed and strength of the tournament (.600/.700/1.700) before jumping on the mound and running the fastball up to 84 mph, making him a must watch in the 2031 class.

Jayden Portes, Florida National (2030)
Portes is the type of player you love to have on your team as a coach given he's capable of doing almost anything on the field at a high level. There's plenty of strength and whip in the hands offensively, staying compact to the ball and showing some real strength to the pull side already. He was up to 81 mph on the mound and peppered the zone with 7 strikeouts in 4 innings and shows plenty of speed on the bases and soft hands with snatchy actions on defense. 

Jack Mattingly, Tennessee (2031)
Mattingly found himself on Tennessee despite being from Kentucky and I'm sure the club was happy to have him given the performance he put forth. One of several Festival alum in attendance, Mattingly hit .429 on the weekend and showed off electricity in the hands, remaining direct to the ball while whipping the barrel head thru the zone. And how about this? While any player would be happy connecting for a triple and home run in a game, Mattingly did that in the first inning during the opening round of playoff action, proving he was locked in from the start. 

Hudson Roland, Tennessee (2031)
Another Kentuckian on Tennessee's roster, Roland showed well over a trio of outings and is one of the easier arms to dream on moving forward. Working comfortably in the upper-70s, the 6-foot-2, long limbed Roland lived around the strike zone and challenged hitters, showing lots of arm speed and a present feel for already spinning the baseball. He struck out 9 in 5.2 innings of work.

Lucas Litton, Northeast (2031)
It's a simple approach in the box for Litton and it played out wonderfully in Houston: "see the ball, hit the ball". Over the course of 15 at-bats the left-handed hitter out of New Jersey collected 9 hits (3 triples and a home run) and was one of the top run producers of the entire event as he collected 13 RBI, gathering 3 or more in three of his team's seven games.

Hector Brito Garcia, Northeast (2031)
The pride of Connecticut, Brito Garcia was a standout on both sides of the ball in Houston for the Northeast squad. Not overly physical, but plenty athletic, HBG hit .579 on the weekend, showing a nice blend of present bat speed, hand-eye coordination and impact off of the barrel. Brito Garcia made sure to put his defense on display as well with a fully extended diving play in the dirt that certainly made you do a double take as to what you just saw. 

Cash Tellez, California National (2031)
They say hitters hit and Tellez is a hitter, so guess what? He hit. Already looking longer in his frame, the young middle infielder opened up the event with a four hit game, utilizing the whole field while scoring a ball to deep center field on his final trip to the plate. He possesses a loose left-handed stroke and an innate feel for the barrel, but also shows athleticism and range up the middle with a fast first step. 

Brayden Nims, Florida National (2030)
Whatever adjective you'd like to use to describe a young, top of the class type hitter, feel free to apply it to Nims. He's long limbed at 6-foot-2 already and possesses the coordination that helps him excel both in the box and on the mound. Nims's swing it one that's as fluid as it is fast, launching a couple balls throughout the weekend, including quite possibly the furthest hit ball of the event on the final day. And not for nothing, he also won the MVPitcher award thanks to striking out 11 batters in 5.1 innings while working into the low-80s. 


Tucker Curtiss, Texas National (2031)
Collecting 7 hits in a tournament like the National All State is nothing to sneeze at, right? What if more than half (4) of those hits went for home runs? We call that a quite good performance. Curtiss sent two balls over the fence to his pull side and legged out a pair, accounting for 16 bases on 4 swings, but also finished the event with an eye-opening .636/.692/2.420 slash. 


Angel Garcia, Florida National (2030)
A native of the Dominican Republic, Garcia possesses the type of tools that quickly has onlookers talking and the All State was no different. At 6-foot-1, 155 pounds, the broad shouldered Garcia certainly looks the part and he connected for a couple of rockets off of the barrel that left you saying, "Houston, we have a problem". He was up to 85 mph on the bump with very real arm speed, attacking hitters while spinning a devilish slider.

Weston Rayburn, Georgia (2031)
On two swings we were able to see the extend of Rayburn's strength and it's simply sees no bounds as he went way out to both the pull side and opposite field, making the fields at Premier look small. There's advanced timing in his swing, getting his front foot down before firing the barrel and letting the barrel eat, producing the type of results that speak for themselves as he finished with a .500/.533/1.950 slash with a couple triples and round trippers. 

Nolan Bingham, Texas American (2031)
Bingham was a nice find this event, a player I personally hadn't seen before but made sure to lock in on during his time on the mound against the Florida National team. Coming out of the 'pen the 6-foot, 160-pound Bingham was impressive over the course of his 5.1 innings of relief, living in the upper-70s, bumping 80 mph, while showing real feel to already mix and match, pitching backwards successfully to some dangerous hitters. 

Sawyer Campbell, Georgia (2031)
Campbell will be a fun one to watch moving forward as the primary shortstop hit .500 on the weekend, but also showed one of the quicker arms of the event which resulted in one of the top fastballs. The athleticism he brings to the box and field also plays on the mound, working in a full attack mode mentality while running the heater upwards of 82 mph, striking out a batter-per-inning over the course of two outings, spanning 7 innings in total. 

Bryce Ransom, Coastal (2031)
It was a tale of two outings for Ransom and it showed us he was able to bounce back as the young right-hander was simply dominant during his second trip to the rubber. He's lean in terms of physicality but already possesses quality arm speed, working from a tighter arm stroke to hide it well, running the fastball up to 80 mph. It's the ability to spin the breaking ball that sets him apart, showing late bite and tight spin, helping him punch out 9 on the weekend. 


Bronx Holbron, Hawaii (2031)
Holbron did a little bit of everything during his trip from Hawaii to Houston, showing off his talent with both the bat and his arm out on the mound. On the weekend he hit .462 with some juice in the hands, making his presence felt once on base as well with 6 swipes. He was also up to 80 mph on the mound, showing off a quick arm with angle coming down the mound, spinning a nice breaker to punch out 8 over 4 innings. 

Izzy Busidan, Northeast (2030)
The young New Yorker put together a solid performance in Houston on both sides of the ball and came out with a top 100 ranking in the most recent update, checking in at No. 90 for his ranking debut. A wiry athlete and primary arm, Busidan topped out at 81 mph with plenty of arm speed, striking out 7 over 4.2 innings of work. He also picked up a couple of triples with the stick, finishing the event with a .364 average and a 1.203 slug. 

David Beck, California American (2030)
Though he didn't ultimately have the cleanest of lines due a rougher 4th inning, you can't help but be intrigued by the potential of Beck out on the mound. He's long limbed with a full arm stroke, so there are some components to time up, but when he's in sync it was a low-80s fastball with a whip-like release that got on hitters quickly. The ball comes out with relative low effort and he flashed some feel for the breaker, making him a name to monitor as we head into summer. 

Darian Gonzalez, Texas Central (2031)
Gonzalez is only one of a handful of players who can lay claim to racking up double digit hits at the 13u National All-State. How did he to it? Well, it's a rather simple approach at the plate without many moving parts, he gets on plane early, and made consistent contact while living on the barrel. Gonzalez also shows the ability to recognize off speed and make the necessary adjustment with his hands, a key component to helping him go 10-for-15 without striking out once. 

Anthony Accurso, Northeast (2030)
Another former Select Festivaler who found themselves ranked in the latest update to the Class of 2030 rankings, Accurso was key on both sides of the ball for the Northeast squad. He was one of the more physical players in the lineup and that strength played in his swing, overpowering the baseball at times with a direct launch and full finish through the point of contact. He also made three appearances on the mound, working in upper-70s, striking out 9 to just 3 hits allowed over 6.1 innings of work. 

Chayse Frierson, Louisiana (2030)
Frierson is one of those arms where you know it's only a matter of time until the velocity jumps in a big way, though that's not to detract from what he's already showing as he worked into the low-80s in Houston. There's plenty of arm speed on the bump already and he already possesses a feel to spin, though he also swung it well, showing a leveraged path through the zone with ample life coming off the barrel. 

Christopher Rice, Carolina (2031)
Rice might be listed as a primary outfielder, but he showed qualities to like on the mound, allowing his athleticism to take over. He worked into the upper-70s from the left side with a clean operation, showing quickness to the arm stroke while also picking off a couple of runners in his first outing of the event. There's also some leverage to the swing with a relatively shorter stroke, living on the barrel to the tune of a .400 average on the weekend. 


Richard Clebert Jr, Florida American (2031)
I may have saw Clebert's best game in Houston, but it was a strong follow up to his performance at the 13u WWBA where he hit .800 on the tournament with wood bat. Listed at 5-foot-8, 151 pounds, Clebert certainly gets the most out of his frame thanks to a set of lightning fast hands, accelerating the barrel through the zone with extension out front, sending a ball well out over the right field fence before smoking a triple that way his next at-bat. He finished with a .400 average and a .667 on-base. 

Jordan Acosta, Florida National (2031)
Middle infielders who are slick with the glove and tend to find a way to get on base are typically a desired commodity and Acosta proved to be just that in Houston. Going 6-for-14 on the weekend with a few doubles and six walks, Acosta proved to be an on-base machine with a .609 OBP, showcasing a compact stroke with which he was able to do damage when letting the barrel head fly. 

Joshua Park, California National (2031)
Similar to his teammate Cash Tellez at the top, "hitter's hit" and Park has already carved out a niche of being just that, a pure hitter. The young left-handed hitting Californian gathered a hit in all six of his team's games and while there's some uniqueness to his hands with a drawn back load, he's able to get the barrel out front, working on a mostly linear path with the ability to already backspin the ball and generate some real impact at the point of contact. He ended the event with a .538/.647/1.570 slash. 


Eli Deville, Louisiana (2031)
You won't find many players more physically intimidating than Deville when the 5-foot-11, 220-pound Lake Charles native digs into the box. And to say the strength in his swing matches would be an understatement as Deville connected for a couple missiles off of the barrel that very few at the 13u level could replicate. It's a full and fluid stroke with good extension out front and he capped off his event with a big exclamation point in the form of an opposite field grand slam, truly exemplifying his strength.

Fielder Grebert, Mississippi (2030)
Grebert came out this fall looking to send and message and I think it's safe to say it was received loud and clear following his performances in both West Palm and Houston. An athletic, left-handed stick out of Arkansas, Grebert once again lived all over the barrel, showing a fluid stroke and natural barrel skills as he sprayed contact line-to-line to the tune of a .438/.545/1.170 slash. He also swiped 7 bags, showing off the speed tool that also helps him sprint all the way up to No. 52 in the latest national rankings update. 

Johnny Smith, Mississippi (2030) 
Smith checked in as the No. 8 performer of the entire event thanks to a .438/.524/1.274 slash line, proving to be a force in the Mississippi lineup as he drove in 10 runs on the weekend. It's a consistent swing, staying short with the hands with plenty of quickness, limiting the moving parts while still getting the most out of his frame as we saw with a no-doubter over the pull side wall. 

Allen Yoo, Northwest (2031)
Yoo may be listed as a primary arm and though we didn't see him throw in Houston, he still impressed with the bat as he has continued to add noticeable strength to his 5-foot-11 frame. Despite the size, Yoo's swing is pretty simple and repeatable, meaning he was able to put the barrel on the ball more often than not, picking up hard barrels to all parts of the field. He finished the weekend hitting .429 and swiped 5 bases. 

Hunter Kuhlman, Texas National (2030)
There's plenty to like with Kuhlman as he showed well on both sides of the ball, making his impact felt in all facets of the game. Offensively, he picked up 9 hits on the weekend, including a double down the pull side line where we saw him pull the hands in and stay plenty quick with his actions. Speaking of quick, he led the event in the stolen base category and also ran his fastball into the upper-70s with a nice downer curve, featuring 12-6 shape. 

Brandon Baez de la Cruz, Florida National (2031)
A native of the Dominican Republic, the young shortstop was able to make his impact felt with the stick, turning it on in the playoffs with a three game streak of 2+ hits. Not overly physical yet at a listed 5-foot-3, 125 pounds, Baez de la Cruz showed nice rhythm in his swing, getting the front foot down on time consistently, while showing looseness to the hands in his left-handed stroke. He ended the event with four extra-base hits and gathered 10 RBI in the process. 

Alex Eatherly, Mississippi (2031)
Eatherly celebrated his 13th birthday with an All-Tournament performance down at the 13u National All State Games and he did it on the strength of his righthanded swing. A contact oriented approach where he pulls his hands in and stays short to the ball, Eatherly was one of the top producers on the event with 9 RBI, picking up a couple doubles and a triple along the way. 

Colt Welch, Georgia (2031)
Welch was a consistent stick in the Georgia lineup throughout the weekend, finishing the event with a crisp .500 average, picking up 6 hits over 12 at-bats. He's not overly physical at 5-foot-8, 140 pounds, but that doesn't detract from his ability to get the barrel head through the zone on time, creating some impact from line-to-line. He had a hot start to the tournament as he picked up 4 hits over the double header on opening day, two of which were triples, and collected 8 RBI, ultimately finishing with 12 on the weekend.


Jayden Swanger, Mid-Atlantic (2031)
Swanger is one of those bats who "looks the part" from the moment he steps into the batter's box and whenever he lets the barrel fly for the first time in an at-bat, it becomes clear your initial assumption was correct. A young left-handed hitter out of Pennsylvania, Swanger is capable of making the bat look like a toothpick the way he whips it through the zone and no pitcher was safe out in Houston as he finished with a .615/.688/1.611 slash and hit the ground running with a 3-for-3 game and a pair of doubles in the opener. 

Aaron Kim, California National (2031)
It was a nice showing for Kim on both sides of the ball as the 5-foot-11, 170-pound SoCal native made his presence felt both with the bat and on the bump. Offensively, the strength of his frame takes over as he pummeled baseballs, including an opposite field blast. On the mound it was the feel for spin that truly stood out, showing a harder, downer offering to pair off of his mid-70s heater, a combo that helped strike out 7 in 3.1 innings across a pair of appearances. 

River Hilliard, Tennessee (2031)
It wasn't the loudest of showings overall for Hilliard, but he took one swing on day one that won't soon be forgotten and one that'll be tied to his name in my mind for a bit. Big and physical at 5-foot-10, 180 pounds, Hilliard brought out the "oohs" and "ahhs" with a blast that cleared the left-center field fence with no doubt, staying compact yet explosive through the zone to drive the ball with some serious authority, kicking the event wide open. 

Kaiden Rogalewski, Southwest (2031)
When you think of a corner profile-type bat, you think of immense strength in the batter's box and that certainly fits the profile of Rogalewski. And how real is the strength for the 6-foot, 195-pound Texan? Let's just say the ball he hit out on day one would've left most fields in the Tomball area with ease as he was able to generate full separation in his swing, getting the barrel head fully extended out front before launching a ball as far, if not further, than any we saw in the event. 

Lucas Viera, Florida National (2030)
Already being 6-foot, left-handed and working into the upper-70s at 13 certainly isn't a bad thing and that describe Viera who showed intriguing traits out in Houston. There's deception in his operation as he hides it well through the back, showing plenty of quickness at release while also spinning a nice breaker to punch out 7 over three innings. Of his five hits, three went for triples, including a missile he barreled the other way during opening night. 

Roman Reier, Northeast (2031)
We didn't see Reier's biggest velocity during the All State Games, but he proved he didn't necessarily need it either as he sat comfortably in the mid-70s and worked around the zone while competing against a tough Florida National lineup. Already listed at 5-foot-11, 176 pounds, Reier does a very nice job of hiding the baseball and tunneling his breaker from a similiar release, gathering swings and misses on the late biting mid-60s offering. 

Anthony Syla, Florida American (2031)
Syla might be listed as a primary first baseman, but he showed things to like on the mound and he'll be a name to monitor moving into the spring. Already 6-foot-2, 198 pounds, Syla is an intimidating presence on the mound and threw very well over a pair of outing, racking up 13 strikeouts in 5.2 innings of work. He uses his size well to leverage the baseball through the zone while working into the upper-70s, but also showed life on the heater up in the zone, coming out of the hand clean and easy.

Donald (DJ) Ford Jr, California National (2031)
What's even more impressive than Ford's performance in Houston is the fact he did it as a 12 year old as he won't turn 13 for another month as of this writing. Working in the upper-70s, Ford went 6.1 innings on the mound in total and punched out 13 in the process, showing real swing-and-miss stuff. With only 3 walks in that span, it's evident he moves well on the mound, repeating his delivery, as is his feel to spin a breaker with 10-4 shape and late sweeping life. 


-Jheremy Brown

Ronan Bobiles (2030, Surrey, B.C. CAN) showed off the two-way upside all pool play for Pacific Northwest. The left-handed pitcher went 3.1 shutout innings on the mound with five strikeouts and spread two hits and two walks. Bobiles ran the fastball up to 77 with good arm-side run and good arm speed and whip. Flashed a curveball that had some depth. In the box the left-handed hitter used a flat bat plane to collect five hits and drive in two RBI. Showcased a fluid stroke and feel to get bat-to-ball with a projectable, lean 5-foot-8, 135-pound frame.

Mason Kainer (2030, Spring, Texas) showed off the upside on the mound for Texas American. The right-handed pitcher went three innings with six strikeouts and spread one hit and two walks during the shutout start. Kainer ran the fastball up to 74 and showed off an effective cutter that had good horizontal bite in the upper-60s that was tunneled well by a slider with more two-plane break and vertical depth. Exciting young arm that showed good pitchability and was able to consistently work the glove-side to get weak contact or swing-and-miss.

Ketziel Rivera (2031, Killeen, Texas) showed the barrel control for Texas American. The right-handed hitter collected seven hits, including a double, to drive in six RBI. Rivera creates good bat speed in the swing with an uphill bat plane and feel to lift and drive the baseball. Compact approach that whips the barrel through well and has more gap-to-gap power to grow into as the 5-foot-5, 135-pound frame matures and fills out. Also showed good speed once on base with six steals. Exciting hitter that hit .500 with an OPS of 1.071 during the event.

Isaac Hinojos (2030, Mesa, Ariz.) showed off the bat-to-ball and power upside for Arizona. The right-handed hitter posted a .438/.444/.625 slash line after collecting seven hits, including three doubles, to drive in seven RBI. Hinojos uses a compact swing with good bat speed and barrel whip to impact. Young feel to drive the ball with strong hands and feel to get on plane. Big, strong 5-foot-9, 160-pound frame with a middle-of-the-order offensive profile.

Mylo Leyja (2031, Cypress, Texas) showed off the barrel control and a smooth swing for Texas National. The right-handed hitter collected a double and triple to drive in four RBI, worked two walks, and swiped three bases. Leyja shows direct hands in the swing with good bat speed and barrel whip out front to impact. Creates leverage well from the lower half to create natural lift with more power in the frame as the long, lean 5-foot-11, 150-pound frame. Also showed good feel defensively, making a nice play on the charge at shortstop with clean hands and a good internal clock.

Road to the 2026 17U BCS Title

Emily Hicks
Article Image
This weekend, 11 teams will take the field for the 2026 17U BCS Challenge, a three-day event that brings together programs from across the country for a full slate of pool play and bracket action. With games beginning Friday and a champion crowned Sunday, the format leaves little room for slow starts, making every inning important from the opening pitch. The field features a mix of established programs and rising teams. With so many evenly matched rosters, there’s not much separation heading into the weekend, which puts importance on pitching depth, defensive consistency, and timely hitting. Pool play will quickly determine seeding, and even one loss can shift a team’s path heading into bracket play. One of the teams expected to be in the mix is Hawaii Elite 2G 17U National, a group that is 6-3 overall and ranked as “Honorable Mention” on the Perfect Games...

Big Talent on Display at City of Palms

Alyssa Golden
Article Image
The fifth annual PG City of Palms Championship is set to take place in Fort Myers, Florida, from June 19-22, featuring teams from the 15U-18U age divisions.
