Prep Baseball Georgia
Staff

The 2025 high school baseball season is quickly approaching and as usual, excitement abounds throughout the state. Players and coaches have been working in preparation for the upcoming season and, as is the case each year, there are some very talented players and teams across Georgia.

Teams across the state have goals and aspirations to finish their seasons in the GHSA or GIAA state playoffs, but there is plenty of work to be done before that becomes reality. We hope to familiarize our readers with many of the teams across the state as we preview individual teams across Georgia. We will take you right up to first pitch this season with these team previews and by continuing our scheduled podcasts and releasing our preseason top-10 rankings in each GHSA classification and Power 25.

Please keep checking back throughout the season as we will be your one-stop shop for everything related to high school baseball across the state.

Each week we will be releasing our Players of the Week, updating the top-10 ranks in each GHSA classification, as well updating our Power 25 overall rankings. One thing, especially, you don’t want to miss are our scheduled podcasts with guests from across the state, as well as the recaps and previews of the big games we’re covering.

*Please note the information has been gathered from head coaches across the state, based on their replies to the questionnaire we distributed over this offseason.

TEAM OUTLOOK

Veteran leadership and overall athleticism are two big pieces needed to make a run in Georgia high school baseball, especially in a brutal region like 6-6A, and the Raiders have that in spades coming into 2025. Coach Jim Cahill has no shortage of high-level pitching both in the rotation and in the pen. The four-headed monster that is the starting staff is led by seniors RHP Brayden Seabold and LHP Brayden Weems, who bring battle-tested experience and pitchability to set the floor while the pair of power arms in junior RHPs Sam Moore and Seth Dixon offer a chance at significant ceiling for this group heading into the spring. Senior two-way leader and Belmont commit Brady Holbrook has the stuff to be a frontline starter for this club, but instead will anchor what appears to be a highly-talented bullpen that also features another committed two-way talent in Ellis Alldredge as well as RHPs Trey Windham and Wyatt Ballisty among others. Holbrook, OF Jordan Cox, and C Ozzie Patterson provide the senior leadership in the lineup, with Patterson also being one of top defensive leaders for this squad. Uncommitted junior IF Jace Cahill provides quality bat-to-ball from the left side backed by above-average speed that will be a mainstay at the top of lineup for North Forsyth, while junior C Bryson Germenanko has a chance to be a main power threat after an outstanding fall and off-season. The raiders aren’t likely to out-slug teams on a nightly basis but the combination of athleticism and immense pitching will give this ballclub a ton of confidence heading into the spring.
