Thereโs an impressive amount of guys in this yearโs senior class touching or nearing triple digits, and some younger guys that are on their way to ๐ฏ.
Siri, show me an in-zone miss.
Poplin has one of the most impressive pitch mixes in the โ28 class and significant ceiling.
Stacked loud showings against premium competition throughout the year.

โ28 Kohen Poplin (FL) was pumping 94-95 & touching 96 tonight, just beating bats in the zone. Checking lots of boxes within the delivery, moves great and plenty of feel to spin both the SL & CB @ 2800 RPM that headline the arsenal. 2 IP, 3 K, 76% strikes. @PG_Uncommitted@Florida_PG #NatElite

The FHSAA recently implemented an โOpen Division Playoffsโ which ultimately creates a Super 8 bracket where the stateโs elite programs will clash following district play to determine the definite powerhouse of Florida baseball.
Here is what it wouldโve looked like this past season using end of the season rankings.๐
(1) Venice v. (8) Berkeley Prep
(2) South Walton v. (7) Bishop Snyder
(3) TCA v. (6) St. Johns Country Day
(4) Jesuit v. (5) Stoneman Douglas
* Itโll be really interesting to follow what this might mean for the state potentially seeing IMG Academy in a state tournament against the best of the bestโฆ.
