Congratulations @wbolyard2007 of @HHSBSBL on your Commitment to @WUSandlot At the buzzer! One final 2026 Grad to celebrate as Bolyard will be heading up North to PA to attending @WaynesburgU Glad to see Will getting the opportunity as the wiry athlete can contribute all over the diamond and on the bump. D3 is a great route right now for High School grads. Waynesburg offers a unique environment for our WNC grads as its located in the same mountain range and offers a similar lifestyle. Located about 13 miles from the WV line, Waynesburg is less than a 7 hour drive to WNC and offers over 70 different degree paths @CImpellittiere @Chris_Womack @VeloBaseballWNC

2027 OF @leatham50029 of @WESTHHSBASEBALL made some big gains this Spring, jumping into the starting line up and the CF role for the Falcons. At the plate, he has some wiry energy that's translating into some pop. Bat speed is evident, barrel is getting to the zone quickly and staying through it. Get's his eyes behind the baseball. EVs were up to 89 MPH in BP on 6/10. Ran a 7.23 60 yd, determined to get under 7.0 as he's proven he's a stolen base threat. Solid routes and angles in the OF. Arm up to 82 MPH. Gets good momentum from Catch to throw. Accelerates quickly and can put the brakes on. 3.2 GPA and still Undecided on his degree path, but is very interested in the JUCO Route. Playing this summer for @VeloBaseballWNC Follow the thread to see Isaac's impressive pitching metrics and films as well.

I've said it before: 2027 1B @JamesOsborne00 of @EHHSBASEBALL has some of the best raw Pop I've seen in these Mountain in a while. Kid can absolutely destroy a baseball, which he showed on 6/10 by hitting one 102 MPH off the bat while averaging 96 MPH (all this after pulling his hamstring in the 60 yd). Hit a bunch of HRs during the Varsity regular season. See the thread as I've attached an addendum with Live Highlights from the Varsity season. Gets a lot of extension in his swing. Hips fire and generate a ton of torque. Athletic 1B, serviceable 3B. Hands and feet move well around the 1B bag. Is a monster in the weight room, not afraid to move heavy things. Very projectable power bat. Great student, 4.4 GPA with a focus on pursuing a Business or Finance degree. Would be a great High Academic D3 prospect but should have options at few different levels. @TNoble0013 @VeloBaseballWNC

I've enjoyed scouting the 6'6" 205 lbs @patrickauten7 of @WESTHHSBASEBALL the past few seasons. The 2027 RHP is very high academic pitching prospect, sporting a 4.115 GPA and a FB that was recently up to 83 MPH at our 6/10 Prospect Filming The FB metrics continue to get interesting as he spins it as high as 2222 from a tall release point and an average of 6.09 Extension. He also averaged an IVB/HB of 13.4/7.7. Was recently clocked at 85 MPH at a June showcase tournament held at @MontreatCavBase Auten, for as big as he is, has pretty good stride mechanics along with a promising Stack & Track. He can definitely work on moving faster, but he can be a tough look for hitters. CB has some shape (IVB/HB: -5.6/-10.9), works well out of his slot. Takes the spin off the CH well (avg 1419). Potential to keep building better pitch shape as he becomes more efficient with mechanics. A lot to like in the tall righty. Coachable, good character. Has gotten Varsity time since Soph year. Will be looked at to take a bigger role for West next season. Playing this Summer with @VeloBaseballWNC Again, high academic, seeking Business or Sports Marketing. Comes from a family of educators. Would be a great Academic D3 prospect with is grades and makeup. @NovaXkinetics

Congratulations @MaybinPeyton of @NHHS_Baseball_ on Your Commitment to @UnionUsc Peyton is one of the top LHPs west of Charlotte and has put together a solid resume in his High School career, including an All-State Selection in 2024. I've always been a fan of his low slot and tilt metrics along with his ability to attack batters with confidence and tenacity for a few seasons now. The JUCO Route will serve Maybin well as he'll face off against some of the top Offensive rosters in NJCAA while at Union. The last time @NH_knights sent a Baseball Prospect to @uscunion, it worked out very well (eg. @Braydencorn21, @Mariners) USC Union has been good to our WNC prospects in the past, so if you're a high-level prospect seeking JUCO in our Region, start off by checking in with the Bantams @WesRogers1830 @Chris_Womack @acthshuddle @VeloBaseballWNC @NovaXkinetics

Very exciting 2027 RHP Pitching Prospect coming out of @WESTHHSBASEBALL in @patrickauten7 6'6" 195 frame. Raw, needs to move quicker, but a lot to like about the composure and potential w/ Auten. He was able to get some Varsity exposure last year, including a Playoff Appearance vs Lake Norman. Will be relied up on more this season. FB was 79-80, touching 81 MPH w/ spins up to 2336. Has some arm speed; lots of room to improve separation. Tall release point. CB doesn't have elite spin, but I really like the shape and usage; its a good pitch. I think this kid will throw 90 if he goes all in on physicality and range of motion. VERY high academic prospect,4.13 GPA w/ an interest in Business/Finance. Played for @VeloBaseballWNC this past Summer

2027 OF @masonyoungbb27 of @AthleticsPisgah has quietly made gains, catching up to some of his Pisgah Senior teammates. Mason started playing baseball in 7th grade and has become a lot more comfortable with the speed of the game in that time frame. Mason had a lot of competitive ABs and barreled XBHs for Coach Sheppard's JV Bears; Mason then carried that approach over into the Summer season with @VeloBaseballWNC Steady eyes in the OF, fairly good body control as he works on more fluid routes. I see potential in the swing as he gets on plane fairly well. Actually looked more comfortable and athletic in his set up during the JV/Summer season; want to see that carry over 7.27 runner, but wiry athletic frame says he can improve. Two full seasons for a coachable athlete who wants to study Education or Agriculture w/ the goal of becoming an Ag Teacher. 3.66 GPA
