With only four days remaining until the New Year, it is time to resurrect the top few articles of 2015 that either created the most buzz in Florida or received resounding national attention. Being in Florida, we are fortunate to have teams and players constantly in the spotlight. Luckily for us, 2015 was an outstanding year for prospects and intriguing stories in the Sunshine State.
Today’s article was one that received immense state-wide attention and even some national coverage as Kyle Tucker of Tampa Plant HS took home the prestigious Florida Gatorade Player of the Year Award. The power-hitting outfielder had a remarkable senior season that catapulted him up draft boards and ended with him being selected fifth overall by the Houston Astros in the Major League Draft. His jaw-dropping statistics were only a portion of the requirements, as GPA and moral character are other vital qualifications for the award. With all of that being said, further details and statistics are in the original article that was penned by Matt Huck here.
