In a desire to best cover high school baseball in the state, PBR Oklahoma will be on the road this winter stopping by scrimmages and gathering information from teams around the state, highlighting top performers and difference makers for each school. Today, PBR Oklahoma will take an in-deep look at the 2018 Fletcher Wildcats.

Team: Fletcher
Nickname: Wildcats
Class: A
Head Coach: Jarod Kings
Years as head coach at school: 5
2017 Overall Record: 22-9 (Fall)
2017 Post­ Season Finish: Regional Finals

PLAYERS TO WATCH
Caleb Amparan, SS/RHP, 2019
Carson Funkhouser, 3B, 2019
Zane Hawk, RHP, 2018
Tyler Smith, 2B, 2018
Dustin Waldorf, OF, 2018

SEASON OUTLOOK 

The 2018 Wildcats put together a very impressive fall and by the end of it, they were a squad nobody wanted to match up against. Quite possibly the most experienced team in the state at any level, Fletcher returns nine starters and five arms with more than 15 innings from a year ago, including seniors leaders Tyler Smith, Dan Campbell, Dustin Waldorf, and Zane Hawk. The Wildcats will also likely get solid products form newcomers Cameron Funkhouser and Travis Black. 

Offensively, junior Carson Funkhouser will likely lead the way for Fletcher again, building on impressive power numbers from last fall. Smith and Waldorf will also likely be big contributors with the bat.

On the mound, Carson Funkhouser will again play a major role as a power arm for the Wildcats. He will be joined by Caleb Amparan, Zane Hawk who round out a strong starting rotation.

Defensively, the shortstop, Amparan, will be the player to watch for the Wildcats quarterbacking the defense from the middle of the infield.

High School coaches can request a 2018 team survey by emailing PBR Oklahoma State Director, Andy Urban, at [email protected].
