PB Alabama Smalltown Showdown: Scout Blog


Alabama Scouting Staff

NORTHPORT, AL - The 2026 PB Alabama Smalltown Showdown brought together many of the top Class 3A-1A programs in the state for a two-day event at River Run Park in Northport, AL. Our staff was on-site throughout the weekend to evaluate a wide range of talent, from established upperclass prospects to intriguing underclassmen beginning to make their mark at the varsity level. Below, we highlight several standout performers who caught the attention of our scouting staff during the event, providing in-game looks, player evaluations, and notes from the weekend. 


+ LHP Addison Senn (Ariton, 2027) emerged as one of the more intriguing prospects seen over the weekend, showing notable upside as an uncommitted junior southpaw. The 6-foot-1, 185-pound left-hander carries an athletic frame with projection remaining and brings a well-rounded athletic background as a quarterback on the football field. In this look, Senn tossed 2.1 hitless innings while striking out four, though the command began to waver slightly late in the outing. He works with a deceptive delivery that features slight crossfire and shows a willingness to attack the inner half to right-handed hitters. The fastball ranged 83-86 mph and topped at 88 early, generating some swing-and-miss, while the slider spun 74-76 mph with 10-4 shape and depth and spin rates approaching 2500 RPM.
