PBR Fall Showcase Player Spotlight: Carter Lyles


Josh Kuykendall
West Virginia Director of Scouting

This fall, we will be taking a closer look at each member of the PBR Fall Showcase Team, known as the Appalachian Aces. Today we highlight 2019 3B/RHP Carter Lyles who is committed to West Virginia. 

Kuykendall on Lyles: "I have been very impressed with Carter. He is a big time talent not only on the mound, but at third base. He never gets cheated when he's in the box. If he continues to work hard and develop all of his pitches, he has the potential to make an impact at West Virginia sooner rather than later"
