ROSTER PREVIEW

Nate Godbold SS / 3B / Mt. Carmel High, CA / 2028

Mason Park SS / 2B / Fullerton Union High, CA / 2027

From 1/3/26: "Park continues to reinforce his status as a top-80 player in the state, turning in his third straight strong showing dating back to the OC Summer ID and the CA State Games. Park once again produced in live game action, picking up another base hit, while putting together a solid BP round where he posted a 94.8 mph max EV and a 354' max batted distance. The offensive consistency continues to stand out, with Park showing a reliable approach and the ability to impact the baseball in both controlled and competitive settings. Athletically, Park remains a quality runner, clocking a 7.2 60-yard dash at this event after previously posting a 6.87 at the State Games, and he shows the athleticism and arm strength (88 mph) to stick at SS long term, with the versatility to also slide over to 3B if needed. Physically, he looks noticeably stronger than he did over the summer, having added roughly five pounds of good weight. The added strength shows in how the jersey fits and is backed up by a significant jump in the forearm grip strength test, confirming real physical gains. As an uncommitted SoCal INF, Park continues to trend upward and carries the tools, consistency, and physical development to become a legitimate impact player at the next level."
