Unsigned Senior Showcase Spotlight: RHP Bryson Turner



By Greg Williams
PA Director of Scouting

Uncommitted seniors often begin to get a little uneasy at this point in the early fall. With the early signing period looming in November a general attitude of unrest tends to settle in if the right school has not come calling for them.

Bryson TurnerFollowing the completion of the Fall College Prospect Program this group will have its opportunity to stand out on a day set aside for uncommitted seniors to display their talent in front of those schools that are still looking to fill their recruiting needs for the fall of 2015.

The 2014 Unsigned Senior Showcase will take place on October 18 at the Keystone State Baseball Academy (formerly B2B Baseball Academy) in Manheim, PA. This event continues to grow in popularity and in its ability to help match available seniors with college programs that have needs. Over the past two years 26 of 38 prospects have gone on to make college commitments with several others attempting to walk on and make college rosters this fall.

As the roster begins to fill for this year's event we will spotlight each of the prospects scheduled to participate in advance of October 18.

RHP Bryson Turner (Brandywine heights)

Turner worked four innings allowing one run with some arm side run to his fastball at the PBR Mid-Atlantic Border Battle in July. The 5-foot-11, 180-pound uncommitted senior struck out three and displayed the ability to make quality pitches to get out of several jams. Turner also commanded a 68 mph 11/5 breaking curveball and a 74 mph changeup. The righty showed the ability to work fast and challenge hitters working both sides of the plate. Turner sat 80-82 while touching 83 mph on several occasions early in his outing.
