Congrats to @AHSBaseballClub standout pitcher/outfielder @CaneMehling for committing to Wingate! Looking forward to covering the rest of your senior season and then following your career with the Bulldogs!
Ashley quickly turned the page from a Friday night conference loss with a marquee victory to close out the first day of the Wilmington Baseball Classic.
The No. 10 ranked Screaming Eagles picked up big performances from Drew Potter and Cane Mehling to defeat Grace Christian 3-1.

.@CaneMehling is one of the best 2-way players in the state. The fact that he's still uncommitted is insane. There are going to be a lot of coaches that wished they had offered this kid
Final - BSB
Ashley 3, Grace Christian 1
Cane Mehling gets back-to-back strikeouts to put the finishing touches on a huge win for the Screaming Eagles.
Mehling scatters eight hits and allows a run while striking out 11.
Drew Potter went yard and drove in all three runs.
That is the Crusaders' first loss in-state against a scholastic baseball program.
Well @AHSBaseballClub still has a flair for the dramatic! @CaneMehling hit a walk-off grand slam with 2 outs in the 7th inning to give the Screaming Eagles a 10-6 victory over Topsail in the Mideastern Conference opener
Cane Mehling (@CaneMehling) '25 RHP/OF (NC) - super athletic frame, tons of raw strength and twitchy actions, FB is 86-89 topping out at 90, Sinker and CH have similar arm-side action with 8 mph separation, both high level pitches that play really well in game, SL is the put out pitch, has tight late action that gets a ton of swing and misses, has K'd 75 through 60 IP in HS while only walking 0.5 per inning, not afraid to go right at hitters, can see the velo jumping significantly as well, swings it really well, ball jumps off the bat, uses the whole field and finds ways to get on base, steals a ton of bags as well, hit over .350 during the summer/fall, high level defensive OF that takes great routes with a low 90s arm!
