January 16, 2018
Shon Plack
Missouri Scouting Director

As we prepare for the upcoming 2018 high school season, we will be taking a
preseason glimpse at programs from around the state.


Team: Webb City HS
Nickname: Cardinals
Class: Class 5
Conference: Central Ozark Conference
Head Coach: Garry Highfill
Years as head coach at school: 2
Twitter Handle: @wcbaseballcards
2017 Overall Record: 21-9
2017 Conference Record: 7-2 (Tied for 2nd Place)
2017 Post Season Finish: Lost in Sectionals

Number of Returning Starters/Pitchers: 3
Number of Returning Starters/Position Players: 2

Players with 2017 Post Season Honors
Will Larson, SS, 2018 2nd Team All-COC (Missouri Southern)
Tyler Martin, LHP, 2018, 2nd Team All-COC (Nebraska)

Players to Watch
Matt Duley, RHP, 2018
Cade Beason, INF/RHP, 2019
Zach Biastock, INF, 2019
Jacob Monroe, OF/LHP, 2019
Marcus Coleman, LHP, 2018

Season Outlook
Webb City is coming off a successful 2017 season, but in their eyes fell short of expectations.  The Cardinals return two starters, but Coach Highfill is excited about the players competing for spots this spring.  Seniors Tyler Martin and Will Larson earned All-Conference honors last season, and look to lead Webb City into the state playoffs in 2018.  Also, watch for senior RHP Matt Duley, to throw important innings as they defend the district title.  Keep an eye on a trio of juniors, Jacob Monroe, Cade Beason and Zach Biastock to have an impact on the teams success this spring as they look to get back to the state playoffs and advance to the Final Four.
