Congratulations @DartezDrew37263 of @AHS_Cats on Your Commitment to @MontreatCavBase
Drew is an important part of the resurgence we've seen at 1A Andrews the past year, as the Wildcats finished 21-3 while making it to the 3rd Round of the Playoffs. With a much-improved swing this past season, Dartez has shown flashes that he can develop into a middle of the order bat. He's also created stability behind the plate for a talented and fairly deep Andrews pitching staff that hopes to make another run at the 1A title in 2027.
@montreatcollege continues to be a primary target for several of our WNC prospects as Montreat offers several great degree paths, a small school Christian environment, and a large player development staff to help get the most out of their prospects.

Had my first look at 2029 RHP Mason Radford of Murphy at yesterday's workout. Was very impressed with the @SideArmNation slot. Was steady 75-76 with the FB and everything moved. Lots of potential, especially as he starts getting into his body

Had another look at last year's Smoky Mountain Conference Pitcher of the Year, 2027 RHP @bradyrey11 of @jacketsbbt828
The 6'3" 165 Pitcher has been up to 81 MPH on my gun. Mixes 4 pitches well. High academic seeking Bio, specializing in Marine Bio.

2028 OF/IF @DawsonStalcup10 of @AHS_Cats is better know for his LH swing which earned him All Conference Honors. But he threw some pitches at Yesterday's workout as Andrews is preparing to have a deep pitching staff heading into the Spring
His FB was up 76 MPH but he mixed in his CB well to keep batters off balance. Good athlete should contribute in all facets of the game this Spring
@JoshStalcup0624
2028 RHP Logan Hyde of @AHS_Cats has a ton of potential on the bump. His FB was 77-79, 80 MPH a yesterday's workout. Its a high spinner too as I've had him up to 2301
Pitcher's frame, 6'4" 170, is going to make a run at Conference Pitcher of the Year and lead a talented Andrews roster that could make a run at the 1A title
@JoshStalcup0624
Long day for 2027 C @DartezDrew37263 of @AHS_Cats at yesterday's workout.
He barreled up a couple arms during Simulated ABs, then caught a majority of the arms that threw that day. He even got up and threw a few pitches snapping off some nice CBs. He won't be a primary arm, but he's part of a deep Andrews roster that is plenty deep to keep their pitching staff fresh all year

New FB Velo PR for 2029 RHP @PDB0027 of @RobbinsvilleHS at yesterday's workout at Andrews
Brooks' FB was 78-80 MPH coming out of a big strong 6'4" 230 lbs frame. Was flashing a solid Split that was steady 66-68 MPH and had some swing and miss potential.
Since first seeing Brooks' in June of this year, he's been steady moving faster and performing more confidently. High academic prospect as he's ranked #1 in his Class
@JoshStalcup0624
2027 RHP @ColtonMorg80915 of @AHS_Cats was sitting 77-79, touching 80 mph at yesterday's workout at Andrews. What makes Colton special is that his FB spins have been as high as 2566! His avg is 2350 RPM
Lots of potential, especially as he adds to his 5'10" 130 frame. Was Conference Pitcher of the Year his Sophomore season. Good JUCO Route prospect
@JoshStalcup0624
Solid performance by 2027 RHP @zackfutchugv of @AHS_Cats in yesterday's workout at Andrews
FB was 79-81 MPH, Sinker was 74-78, CT was 71-73. Interesting offerings with a Release Height near 4 ft. Low 3/4, have encouraged him to toy with going lower.
Wiry athlete, good JUCO Route candidate or somewhere with Electrical or Vocations. One of the top pitchers hiding out in the 1A/2A Smoky Mountain Conference. I like his grit, not afraid to make a phone call.
