The 2018 spring high school season in Maryland generated some incredible individual moments and performances throughout all corners of the state. As the spring high school season comes to a close, Prep Baseball Report is excited to announce one player who emerged ahead of the competition at all levels in the state of Maryland. This player has been selected not only for their outstanding statistical numbers, but also for their overall effect on their high school program.

Jacob Zebron RHP/ OF Colonel Richardson

Zebron, a senior right-handed pitcher and outfielder from Colonel Richardson HS, produced a strong statistical season while helping lead his team as one of the top ranked teams in the state this spring.

The 6-foot-2, 181-pound Zebron signed with North Carolina State and was recently selected by the Baltimore Orioles in the 18th round of the MLB draft.

Zebron's all-around performance, as well as the impact he has had on Colonel Richardson High School, has earned him the 2018 Prep Baseball Report Maryland State Player of the Year honors.

Zebron has been selected by Maryland Director Jerry Shank and the team of area scouts who covered the high school baseball season throughout the spring. The Prep Baseball Report staff has been diligently scouting and covering baseball games at baseball diamonds across the state this spring to bring parents, athletes and fans the most comprehensive coverage of amateur baseball across the United States. The dedication and coverage allow Prep Baseball Report a credible way to identify the top athletes each year who best represent the state of Maryland
