Beyond blessed and excited to announce that I am continuing my academic and athletic career at the University of Piedmont. I would first like to thank God for giving me the ability to play this game and pursue my dreams. I can’t thank everyone enough for all of their support.

[Jake Beard @JakeBeard45]

Good regular season with the boys! As well as tacking on 2 more HRs in the first round of State playoffs. Still got work to do, time to go on a run!

Blessed to say that I’ve committed to Southern Union to play baseball. I’d like to thank God, my parents, family and my coaches for helping me along the way. Thank you Coach Jeanes and Coach Willard for the opportunity!

Excited for this next chapter of my life!

Another legit swing here from 2026 1B Jake Beard, this one just short of a HR.

Keeps his hands close to his body and uses his lower half to generate big-time power.
