We are so proud of Carter McCulley! He has been with WFBA since he was 7 years old and he was drafted this week by the LA Dodgers as a draft and follow. He made the decision to play at PSC for one year before leaving for the MLB. @McculleyCarter@Dodgers@PSC_Baseball
We are so proud of of Walter “Bryant” Ford @Vanilla_Missile on being drafted by the Seattle Mariners @Mariners! He left yesterday on a wonderful journey to the Major Leagues. He has been with WFBA since he was 9 years old!!
I am blessed to announce my commitment to further my baseball and academic career at Lurleen B. Wallace! I would like to thank all of my coaches and most importantly the man up stairs for giving me the ability to play this game. Go Saints! ⚜️ @LBW_Baseball@WFLbaseball
Congrats to Lane Rickerson who hit a bomb over the Plainsman Park fence while representing WFBA at the Auburn Baseball Camp. He ended the camp being awarded The Camper of the Week and brought home a bunch of loot!! @AuburnBaseball
Congrats to these WFBA 14U hitters that were named to the PG All-Tournament Team for the July 6-9 tourney that they won! Congrats also to Rhyland Richards who threw a No-hitter in the championship game to earn a spot on the All-Tournament Team for pitchers! @RhyRichards
At one time, Ford and McCulley were in the same shoes as our campers, learning the game and working every day to get better. Now they are sharing their time and experiences with the next generation of WFBA players. Thank you both for giving our campers a day to remember!
Our campers got a special treat today when they were joined by the latest area prospects to be drafted by Major League Baseball @MLBDraft teams, Walter Bryant Ford @Vanilla_Missile (Seattle Mariners @Mariners) and Carter McCulley @McculleyCarter (Los Angeles Dodgers @Dodgers).
With the 74th overall pick, the @Mariners select Pace (FL) right-handed pitcher Walter Ford, No. 53 on the Top 250 Draft Prospects list.
