Eliott Wilk
Central Region Operations Director

On Tuesday, June 24th, the Prep Baseball Kansas staff traveled to Wichita State University's Eck Stadium in Wichita, KS to host the annual Wichita Summer ID. This event, featured 35+ players from all over the state.

All of our events offer players the opportunity to update their recruiting resume and showcase their talents in front of our staff. We also use these events as identifiers for future invite-only events, like the Preseason All-State, our summer Top Prospect Games, and the prestigious Prep Baseball Future Games that takes place at the tail end of the summer.

A consistent in-game performer who continues to impress in front of our staff, OF Hays Ensley (Mulvane, 2027) put his loud, well-rounded toolset on full display in Tuesday’s look. The 5-foot-11, 176-pound athlete kicked off the day by running a 6.80 60, one of the top times at the event. At the plate, Ensley showcased a confident, repeatable right-handed swing that produced consistent pull-side barrels, including a peak 95 mph exit velocity. Defensively, he continues to prove himself as one of the top outfielders in the state, showing off easy arm strength at 90 mph from the outfield while covering ground with natural instincts and fluid actions. Ensley continues to firmly establish himself as a name to know in the state's junior class.

Always a polished presence on the field, INF Charlie Meyer (Kapaun Mt. Carmel, 2026) continues to trend upward as he adds strength and athleticism to his game, emerging as a name to follow in Kansas’ junior class. Meyer showed notable jumps across the board, recording personal bests in both his infield velocity (83 mph) and 60-yard dash (7.05). That added physicality showed most at the plate, where he consistently elevated balls throughout BP, peaking at 93.9 mph exit velocity with impressive bat speed (73.4 mph) and hand speed (26.2 mph). With polish, projection, and continued development, Meyer is a name to know moving forward.

Well known to our staff as one of the top defensive catchers in Missouri’s 2027 class, C Carter Scott (Rockhurst) turned in another strong all-around showing during our trip to Wichita. The high-level defender once again stood out behind the plate, showcasing a quick, clean transfer with advanced catch-and-throw skills that helped produce 1.89–1.93 pop times and a 77 mph arm from the chute. Offensively, Scott showed added strength from the right side, barreling balls back through the middle with intent and recording a peak exit velocity of 92.2 mph. With continued development at the plate to pair with his elite defensive skillset, Scott remains a name to keep an eye on in the state’s soon to be junior class.
