Austin Schultz, SS, Norris, 2018
The Wichita State recruit is off to a blistering start with a .581 batting average, 18 hits, three triples, three doubles, and two home runs while leading off the Titans.

Carson Pilkington, OF, Elkhorn South, 2018
One of my favorite quotes I’ve heard from a scout when asked about hitting was a simple response, “Hitters hit”. The junior outfielder can hit and currently leads the middle of the order for the Storm with a .417 batting average with 8 doubles, 2 home-runs and 17 RBIs.

Kyle Perry, LHP, Millard South, 2018
The Nebraska recruit has put together some video game numbers against three strong Class A teams with wins over Bellevue West, Omaha Westside and Lincoln Southwest. Perry is currently 4-0, with a .40 ERA and 30 K's in 17 ⅔ innings pitched.

Garrett Kennedy, OF, Millard West, 2018
The 2019 lead off hitting outfielder from Millard West has become a spark plug for the Wildcat offense early in the season. Currently hitting .440, with 6 RBI’s and 5 stolen bases.

Cam Taylor, LHP, Bellevue West, 2017
The Johnson County commit led the state in combined strikeouts in the 2016 season and early in the 2017 season it looks to be no different. Taylor has thrown 18 innings and has 37 K’s and 2-1 record with two saves for the Thunderbirds.

Nick Henrichs, RHP/1B, Omaha Westside, 2017
Henrich’s is showing potential in his senior season to put together strong performances on the mound and at the plate for the Warriors. He’s currently batting .410 with 8 RBI’s, 4 doubles and two triples. On the mound, he leads the Warriors with 20 ⅓ innings pitched and a .69 ERA.

Noah Sacco, OF, Millard North, 2017 
The Simpson College commit is leading the way for the 6-5 Mustangs. The left handed hitting outfielder has come out the gate hot, hitting .541 with 20 hits, 10 RBIs, and 6 stolen bases.
