Congratulations @aidan_burlett of @HHSBSBL on Your Commitment to @Hood_Baseball
One of the top LH Sluggers in WNC is heading to Maryland, but he's still going to be playing ball in the Blue Ridge Mountains! @hood_college is a high-academic institution located in Frederick, MD which is on the eastern-most ridge of the Blue Ridge Mountain chain
Aidan is also the Evidence that disproves the statement "There is no $ in D3 Baseball." Aidan cut the costs on Hood drastically through his Academic Merit; A+ GPA, Honors/AP, and graduating at the top of your Class can change the price of school very quickly
Aidan joins a Hood roster managed by @Coach_Victory, who is very familiar with WNC talent as he was the former Head Coach of @BCNadoBaseball from 2020 to 2024

There's Power potential w/ the 6'3" 255 lbs 2026 1B Charles Hulsey of @HHSBSBL
Bat speed is present in Hulsey; needs to work on getting more out of his lower half, although he does have a strong balance base. Focus on hip/lower half rotation. Stays connected fairly well, compact. Barrell is pretty quick across the zone; lower half adjustments will create better barrel path.
This is the best Bearcat roster to be assembled in the last decade, and with a switch to the Western Highlands Conference, they should make a run for the Conference Title. Hulsey will have a good opportunity to step up as an additional force in the middle of a Hendersonville lineup seeking to finish above .500 in their conference for the 1st time since 2015.
Interested in pursuing Business/Marketing. Open to JUCO/4Year routes.

2026 MIF/OF @wbolyard2007 - @HHSBSBL - 3.4 GPA - Undecided in Degree Path
Wiry, quick-twitch athlete in Bolyard. Has some bat speed, gives him a knack for being a tough out. Ran well, 7.08 60 yd. Strong throws up to 80mph across the diamond (threw quality innings for Varsity as well)
Saw a lot of hard contact during the regular season. Raw, but high ceiling. Athletic enough to play several positions, but I don't quite know what his primary will be in the long term yet. Needs to hit weights and add some pounds to his 5'10" 150 frame, but overall, I'm encouraged by the raw athleticism I've seen from Bolyard in 2025
Would be a solid JUCO Route prospect as he's still considering what to study, but also would allow time to let his athleticism materialize on the field and figure out his long-term role
Playing with @VeloBaseballWNC this Summer
Big-time player and an absolute steal for any program that takes a chance on him. On top of that, one of the most respectful guys you’ll find on and off the field. Excited to see where he lands!
So far, 10 players from our 2025 roster have committed to continuing their academic and athletic careers at four-year schools.
Best of luck this year, gentlemen! #WakeTech 🦅⚾️
Had another great weekend at the plate, going 3-7 (.429)! Had 2 doubles and a single, 1 RBI, 1 R, 2 walks, a HBP, and 3 stolen bases.

I am extremely excited to announce I am continuing my academic and athletic career at Rockingham Community College. First I want to thank God for giving me this opportunity, and second my family, friends, and coaches for guiding me along the way

More from 2025 RHP @Ethan43252524 of @HHSBSBL
Interesting arm to track on a struggling Varsity squad. Talented prospects can be overlooked on the recruiting scene at times when playing on a small school squad that is rebuilding, but its a great chance for leadership development and character growth. Ethan is trying to seize that role at 2A Hendersonville
On 3/14, Ethan earned the W vs Polk, working 6 IP allowing 3 H, 1 ER w/ 2 BB & 8 Ks
In his last 4 appearances, Ethan has worked 19.2 IP, allowing 17 Hs, 5 ERs, and 10 BBs while collecting 25 Ks
First look at 2025 RHP @Ethan43252524 of @HHSBSBL
Tall, lanky frame; gets downhill well with separation. Hides the ball well during the delivery; release point "suddenly" appears
Some pitches from his start vs Mountain Heritage on 3/7: 5 IP, 1 ER, 6 H, 12 Ks, 1 BB
