Perfect Game College All-Americans

San Diego third baseman Kris Bryant and Oklahoma right-handed pitcher Jonathan Gray were the cream of the crop at their respective positions, and are this year's Perfect Game Pitcher and Player of the year, respectively, highlighting an outstanding group of College All-Americans.


Bryant put together a phenomenal campaign for the Toreros, showcasing incredible raw power and earning the distinction of the No. 2 overall pick in the Major League Baseball draft to the Chicago Cubs. The hard-hitting third baseman is no stranger to Perfect Game, either, as a former PG High School All-American, too. Meanwhile, Gray took a significant step forward a junior this spring, showcasing a mid-to-high 90s fastball, along with a wipeout slider, while also being the No. 3 overall pick in the MLB draft to the Colorado Rockies.


Plenty of other outstanding college players rose to the occasion this season. For instance, New Mexico's DJ Peterson and North Carolina State's Carlos Rodon are first-team members for the second-straight season, while Kris Bryant, Gonzaga's Marco Gonzales, Stanford's Mark Appel, Oregon State's Michael Conforto and UCLA's David Berg are familiar faces.

Ryan Sanchez (‘27, AZ) hammers this ball to deep LCF for a 3-run 💣. Physical 6-5/230 frame. Has some rhythm to the hands. Strength plays at contact #DesertClassic @PG_Uncommitted pic.twitter.com/sGL2vcpwIL — Perfect Game Four Corners (@PG_FourCorners) June 6, 2026 Ryan Sanchez (2027, Chandler, Ariz.) showcased loud two-way ability throughout the event. A physical frame at 6-foot-5, 230-pounds stands out on both sides of the ball. The stuff on the bump was impressive. Sanchez sat 89-92 mph with the heater, topping out at 93 mph. Heavy armside run and the velocity makes the pitch hard to barrel. It was paired with a quality breaking ball at 73-77 mph that showed some bite. At the plate, Sanchez uses his strength efficiently. There is some rhythm to the hands that creates some bat speed. When combined with obvious strength at contact, Sanchez can generate easy power to the...

Swamp Baseball entered the Gulf Coast Classic looking to break through after falling in the championship game in each of the previous two weekends. Their matchup against Florida Flames 18U was a rematch of the East Memorial Day Classic championship game two weeks earlier, when the Flames earned a 4-1 victory. This time, Swamp turned the tables, defeating the Flames 11-2 at JetBlue Park to claim the 18U Gulf Coast Classic title. The game ended after the top of the fifth inning under Perfect Game’s mercy rule, which ends play when the home team leads by eight or more runs after 4 ½ innings. Strong pitching from Payton Sturrup and Ian Long, combined with consistent offensive production throughout the entire lineup, helped Swamp take control early and never look back. Nicholas Raber delivered Swamp’s first hit of the game, driving in two runs with a double. Anthony Reitler...
