Picked up the win tonight in a thunderstorm, throwing 2 innings with 3 strikeouts, allowing just 1 hit and no earned runs. I threw 24 of 38 pitches for strikes, sat 80 mph, and topped out at 83. @netelitebasebal @VeloBaseballWNC @TKA_baseball

[Benny Jones @BennyJones2027]

Another solid outing on the mound this weekend. Threw 5 innings, struck out 4, allowed 3 runs, and filled up the zone with 53 strikes on 77 pitches. I hit 85 off the mound and sat 82-83. @rickdearmas28 @Tripp_Storrs @netelitebasebal @VeloBaseballWNC @TKA_baseball

[Benny Jones @BennyJones2027]

Grateful for every chance I got to take the mound this season. I made 16 appearances and threw 55 innings, finishing with 63 strikeouts and a 2.91 ERA. Thank you to my coaches, teammates, and everyone who had my back all year. Time to get back to work and be even better next season. @gphs__baseball @VeloBaseballWNC @SevierSportsRpt

@gphs__baseball is heating up. I threw a 0 earned run complete game shutout tonight, allowing 5 hits on 5 strikeouts. I also went 1-2 with 2 walks, scoring 3 runs. I’m very thankful for the opportunity to help my team out in an exciting win! @tnballplayers @SevierSportsRpt @TBCAorg @LoganHullette2 @VeloBaseballWNC @OnDeckTN

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

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

[Baseball University of the Blue Ridge @BBUniversityWNC]

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

[Baseball University of the Blue Ridge @BBUniversityWNC]

2027 RHP @HolbrookCo71505 of @EHHSBASEBALL burst on the scene when he threw a 1-0 CG Shutout vs Tuscola this past Spring

Cole is part of a strong pitching core quietly emerging out of East. His FB was up to 81 mph; he showed solid shapes & spins on the breaking stuff; strong frame already holding good weight. Also a primary catcher with good Offensive projection (Player Position film in the Thread)

High academic 4.3 GPA, interested in studying Exercise Science; played this summer with @VeloBaseballWNC

One of the hardest-working student athletes in WNC, 2026 IF/RHP @BraydenDavis742 of @ACR_Baseball made Physicality & Strength goals his freshman year, and now, as a senior, he's pushing 6 ft 190

He started rattling the fences w/ the stick this past Spring which will help his versatility play up as he can find his way into the line up through a few different positions.

Looking to be a leader during his Senior Year as ACR will be sporting a lot of underclass talent this Spring

A couple swings from this week. Working on staying through the ball and using my lower half more.
