Was excited for the opportunity to pitch again today at the WWBA after a rough outing the other day, when I struggled to find the zone. Listened to someone I trusted a lot to make a small adjustment on my release point that led to great results today. Lost a close game today against the number 1 undefeated team in our pool, at East Cobb. 1 IP (1,2,3 inning, 62% strikes) 1 K (Other 2 outs were weakly hit infield pop outs) NEW FB PR: 92 MPH (Strike) Looking forward to throwing in Hoover in a couple weeks! @CoachSarazin @KirbyMcGuire7 @joesheridan_ @ksecrest13 @Sakowski_UVA @UVAcoachBK @Newperry @coachnapWU @saltlifer4 @ClintChrysler @GainesBryant @jaxonsc @CarterHicks13 @CoachForbes_UNC @cholbrook2 @WillDorton24 @brown1e24 @heathblackmon9 @coachpinz @T_Stone18 @ddwhite42 @jkorte5 @Coach_ManessHPU @JoeyHammond1 @Hoffnw17 @B_Mincey29 @KellyCorl2 @cfelksjr @KSchnall9 @CoachOx18 @anthony_zurke1 @RyanMcCleney @5_jrg @LandonPowell10 @Coach__Johnston @jakerobbins49 @chase_bishop13 @mark10miller @BHall_NC @BBUniversityWNC @H2TPNC

Stats from today; 2 IP 4 K’s 2 H 1 ER FB: 86-90 (x7) Ready to get after it in a couple weeks at the WWBA in ATL! @CoachSarazin @KirbyMcGuire7 @joesheridan_ @ksecrest13 @CoachForbes_UNC @Sakowski_UVA @UVAcoachBK @Newperry @coachnapWU @saltlifer4 @ClintChrysler @GainesBryant @jaxonsc @CarterHicks13 @cholbrook2 @WillDorton24 @brown1e24 @heathblackmon9 @CoachTRooney @coachpinz @T_Stone18 @ddwhite42 @jkorte5 @Coach_ManessHPU @JoeyHammond1 @Hoffnw17 @B_Mincey29 @KellyCorl2 @cfelksjr @KSchnall9 @anthony_zurke1 @RyanMcCleney @5_jrg @LandonPowell10 @jakerobbins49 @chase_bishop13 @mark10miller @BHall_NC @BBUniversityWNC @H2TPNC

Good first tournament for SBA Tucci 2027, at Beast of the East in ATL. Made it to bracket play before losing an extra inning game to a great team with 12 D1 commits, East Coast Sox 2027 (MS). Pitching Stats v.s. East Coast Sox 2027, the day after catching and going 1-1 with a run; 3.2 IP (Game Start) 4 H (2 infield singles) 5 K’s (LSU commit x2 and Arkansas commit) 1 ER FB: 86-89 Change was producing weak contact and ground balls, giving a different look then the rising fastball, and the sharp breaker. Also threw 0.2 IP on Friday which was helpful to shake off the rust as I hadn’t thrown in a game since school ball ended a little over 3 weeks ago. Clip 1; Pitching, Clip 2; Pitching (SL), Clip 3; Pitching (LSU Commit), Clip 4; Hitting @CoachSarazin @KirbyMcGuire7 @joesheridan_ @ksecrest13 @CoachForbes_UNC @Sakowski_UVA @UVAcoachBK @Newperry @coachnapWU @saltlifer4 @ClintChrysler @GainesBryant @jaxonsc @CarterHicks13 @cholbrook2 @WillDorton24 @brown1e24 @heathblackmon9 @CoachTRooney @coachpinz @T_Stone18 @ddwhite42 @jkorte5 @Coach_ManessHPU @JoeyHammond1 @Hoffnw17 @B_Mincey_WM @KellyCorl2 @cfelksjr @KSchnall9 @anthony_zurke1 @RyanMcCleney @5_jrg @LandonPowell10 @jakerobbins49 @chase_bishop13 @mark10miller @BHall_NC @BBUniversityWNC @H2TPNC

Due to other teams in our conference making it very far in the NCHSAA state playoffs, I had to wait to post All-Conference awards and the team defensive award.

First bullpen after the school season ended, and prior to travel starting soon! Topped 91 and hit 90 six times! Super excited for this summer season with SBA Tucci National 2027!

Unfortunately not the outcome we wanted against Burns in round 4 of the NCHSAA 4A state playoffs. We were hoping to get the W for Coach Mac who tragically passed away the night before on the field, but it wasn’t in Gods plan. Coach Mac will be missed and never forgotten. Playoff Pitching Stats; 9.1 IP 2 GS 2 W 4 H 11 K’s 2.250 ERA 1.179 WHIP .125 BAA Held 89 deep into games and was sitting 87-88. Change up played great to keep hitters off balance and to get ground balls. Slider was an early count strike stealer. Also caught 1 game in playoffs and had 2 playoff hits. Excited for my travel team SBA Tucci 2027 National to kick off here in a few weeks! @CoachSarazin @KirbyMcGuire7 @joesheridan_ @ksecrest13 @CoachForbes_UNC @Sakowski_UVA @Newperry @coachnapWU @saltlifer4 @ClintChrysler @GainesBryant @jaxonsc @cholbrook2 @WillDorton24 @brown1e24 @heathblackmon9 @CoachTRooney @coachpinz @T_Stone18 @ddwhite42 @jkorte5 @Coach_ManessHPU @JoeyHammond1 @Hoffnw17 @B_Mincey_WM @KellyCorl2 @anthony_zurke1 @RyanMcCleney @5_jrg @jakerobbins49 @chase_bishop13 @mark10miller @BHall_NC @BBUniversityWNC
