Tennessee HS Team Preview: Madison Academic Magnet Mustangs


Prep Baseball Tennessee Staff

The 2025 Tennessee high school baseball season is quickly approaching and, as usual, excitement is abound throughout the state. Players and coaches have been working in preparation for the upcoming season and, as is the case each year, there are some very talented players and teams across Tennessee.

Teams across the state have goals and aspirations to finish their seasons in Murfreesboro at the state tournament championships – but there is plenty of work to be done before that becomes reality. We hope to familiarize our readers with many of the teams across the state as we preview individual teams across Tennessee. We will take you right up to first pitch this season with these team previews, eventually releasing our Preseason Power 25 rankings that’ll carry us into the opening week of action.

Please keep checking back throughout the season as we will be your one-stop shop for everything related to high school baseball across the state. Each week we will be releasing our Players of the Week and updating the Power 25 rankings.

Our 2025 preseason coverage continues today.

2025 OUTLOOK

+ The Madison Academic Baseball team is coming off a big bounce back season in 2024. They doubled their wins going from 7-13 in 2023 and 14-15 in 2024.

They look to build off this season and take the next step in 2A baseball. Madison brings back two big contributors in 2026 Dylan Stranak and 2025 Ryker Stegall. Dylan Stranak will return as the starting shortstop and anchor to the lineup. Dylan is a two time member of the TN All-Underclassmen team. He comes off a sophomore year where he hit .466. Dylan is poised to continue to be one of the top 2026 performers in the state. Ryker Stegall returns to bolster the pitching staff and become the ace. Ryker has great movement on all his pitches and should be the guy on Monday nights. Other upperclassmen that will be big contributors include 2025’s Nico Udovich and Garrett Clark. Nico is a utility guy that will help out at catcher and first base while also logging some important innings on the mound. Garrett will man second base and also pitch. Garrett is a super contact guy that will be a key contributor.

The outlook for 2025 is bright for Madison Academic as they look to take the next step by competing in a tough 2A district in Jackson, Tennessee.
