Logan Mallard (2024 1B, Houma, LA) triple to center field on a fastball down in the zone in his first at bat. He showed some heavy hands dropping he bat head on it and driving it all the way to the 400 sign at the base of the wall. His left-handed swing is smooth with natural loft allowing him to get the ball in the air. 

Nate Taylor (2024 SS, Flowery Branch, GA) showed off his barrel skills in his first at bat after spraying the ball around the field in batting practice. He got a fastball out over the plate and did a nice job of getting the hands extended to drive the pitch over the head of the center fielder into the right center field gap.

Jayden Adcox (2023 C, Forest, MS) came out attacking hitters with a good fastball running it up to 85 mph with heavy sink as he mowed down hitters. He also showed feel for both of his secondaries with a curveball landing with good depth and a changeup that he showed to lefties for strikes. He added a base hit later in the game showing off the strength in his hands to muscle a ball over the short stop and into the outfield for a single. 

Jackson Reed (2022 OF, Prattville, AL) works under the ball on the mound with good success as he generates good movement on the fastball and showed the ability to miss barrels. He worked a clean two innings allowing no runs as he mixed in a changeup with fading action but went to the curveball as the put way pitch. 

Edward Paneque (2023 SS, Miami, FL) has shown some of the smoothest defensive action on the infield of any player all weekend. His quick feet move around the ball well allowing him to make athletic plays like the one he made coming in on a ball to get the runner on the move. He also added a single at the plate with a base hit up the middle. 

Liam Magee (2025 SS, Summit, MS) got a fastball on the outer half and drove it deep down the opposite filed line in right field. He was able to keep it just fair inside the line and tuck it into the corner as he showed some of his speed wheeling around the bases for an inside the park home run. 

Ryan Everly (2024 SS, Huntsville, AL) works to the plate with a very deliberate delivery and easy arm action allowing the fastball to jump out of the hand when he wants to reach back and run it up into the mid 80’s as he showed on Sunday. He topped out at 85 mph and showed good hand speed on the slider in the low 70’s. 

Aiden Seeley (2025 OF, Randolph, AL) showed a promising right arm for a young 2025 graduate. Having just turned 14 he is one of the younger kids in the class but still was able to run his fastball up to 80 mphs as he attacked hitters in the zone. He located best to the glove side and went there later in counts to put hitters away.

Andrew Pitts (2024, Hoover, AL) displayed his skills on both sides of the ball. The southpaw lived in the upper-70s on the mound while throwing three scoreless frames and striking out four. He also showed solid bat-to-ball skills while collecting a pair of hits on the day.

Kenneth Schaedel (2022 OF, Virginia Beach, VA) showed some of the best intent of the whole day in his right-handed swing as he drove the ball deep to routinely deep to left field. The athleticism and hand speed in the swing help to produce plenty of power upside moving forward. 

Jayden Adcox (2023 C, Forest, MS) has some of the top raw power in batting practice with a high level of bat speed and pure strength in his right-handed swing. The ball jumps off the at of the young catcher with easy power to the pull side as he gets good extension though contact. 

Cy Craig (2022 OF, Jackson, MS) found a lot of barrels I his round of batting practice spraying baseballs to all parts of the yard. He displayed great connection in his swing with the whole body moving in sync and producing power to the pull side from the ground up as he drives through his strong lower half. 

Ryan Davis (2024 RHP, Trussville, AL) was on time with the barrel all round using the length in his frame to his advantage to leverage baseball to the pull side. The ball jumps off his bat well to left field with back spin as eh matches plane helping to create the carry. 

Nate Taylor (2024 SS, Flowery Branch, GA) starts slightly open using a simple load and trigger to get bat to even as he deploys the barrel to the inside part of the ball. His ability to stay inside allows the strength in his hands to drive the ball the other way on a line with plenty of success.   

Satchel Wheeler (2024 LHP, Madison, AL) showed some ability to turn and burn from the left side with a barrel path that works slightly uphill though the hitting zone allowing him to leverage baseballs. The barrel head is out front on time consistently in part to his simple trigger mechanism.

Trevor Murphy (2023 3B, Stapleton, AL) starts with a narrow base shift his weight well into contact as he is on time with his leg lift allowing contact to happen out front consistently. The strength in his hands allow him to display power to the pull side as he controls the barrel well in the hitting zone.  

Dylan Wesson (2023 OF, Brandon, MS) uses a wider base to start his simple operation with a mostly level bat path that allows the barrel to stay in the hitting zone for a maximum amount of time. This results in hard hit line drives to the middle of the field and pull side.  

Dalton Tutor (2024 C, Pontotoc, MS) matches plane with the pitch very well with a level swing path staying to the middle of the field with a easily repeated swing. He gets good extension out staying through the baseball to insure it comes off on a line.  

Blake Gollott (2022 LHP, Saucier, MS) showed great intent in his left-handed swing as he played pepper with the right field wall as he hammered balls deep to the pull side. He creates good separation pre-swing and showed strength in the hands as he got to the punch at contact creating back spin on the ball flight. 

Chris Billingsley (2023 RHP, Brent, AL) has great length in his limbs that he is able to use in his swing to create extension though the baseball. When he is on time out front with the barrel that length translates to leverage and allows him to lift the ball to the pull side.

Tristin Lynn (2023 OF, Pensacola, FL) used the middle of the field as good as anyone with a slightly open stance to start getting back to even with a simple trigger. He showed some ability to leverage the ball with some looseness in the wrist helping to create whip out front at the point of contact.

Ethan Grover (2022 RHP, Blountstown, FL) worked from the stretch only attacking hitters with the fastball primarily creating a ton of arm side run as he worked it under the hands of right-handed hitters well, tying them up and getting awkward swings over the top as he ran it up to 89 mph. the changeup fits his three-quarters arm slot well as he throws it with good hand speed in the mid to upper 70’s with fading action. 

Cy Craig (2022 OF, Jackson, MS) was off to a hot start on the day with his blazing 60 as he recorded a 6.57 to lead the event before standing out in the outfield as well as batting practice. He carried that into the game with a single in his first at bat off of a changeup pulling it through he right side. In his second at bat he would continue big day with a double off the wall in right field showcasing his above average bat speed. His speed came back into play with two stolen bases. 

Hudson Spear (2023 LHP, Locust Grove, GA) got his solid game started with a long double over the center fielders head as he left-handed stroke showed smoothness through the hitting zone. On the mound the young left-hander filled up the zone with his fastball from a difficult arm angle creating plenty of swing and miss over his three innings. 

Win Brock (2024 OF, Dothan, AL) got all of one in his third at bat driving the baseball deep to right center field on an elevated fastball as he was able to match plane up in the zone and getting good extension through the baseball. He would also add a single in his last at bat again pulling the baseball.  

Kenneth Schaedel (2022 OF, Virginia Beach, VA)  smoked a ball to the pull side in his first at bat as he continued to showcase a loud set of tools. His right-handed swing gets on plane allowing the strength in his frame to play in a big way. He later got on the mound and ran his fastball up to 85 mph as he mowed down hitters for three innings.
