Risers

Drew Brown RHP / 3B / West Catholic, MI / 2026

Rankings  StateRank: 21 / POS: 9

Report: A big winner from ProCase, Brown should have some buzz heading into the spring season. Featuring a fastball into the low 90s, Brown has a power arm with a sharp slider and good frame. A name to catch this spring for coaches looking to add another arm to their ‘26 class.

Lucas Hoffmeyer RHP / 3B / Walled Lake Western High School, MI / 2026

Rankings  StateRank: 55 / POS: 22

Report: A recent standout from our Preseason All State in Ypsilanti, Hoffmeyer possesses good side and good movements down the mound with a fastball that should rack up a number of strikeouts this spring for WLW. Fastball is paired with a 2/7 shaped slider peaking at 2350 rpm. 

Spring Must See Guys

Kellen Ford OF / RHP / Hopkins, MI / 2026

Rankings  StateRank: 11 / POS: 2

Report: Another dynamic athlete from SW Michigan, Ford has a good combination of speed and arm strength from the outfield enabling him to impact the game defensively and on the base paths. Ford is looking to pick up where he left off last summer coming off a Future Games appearance in Georgia. 

Dallas Terski 1B / OF / Divine Child, MI / 2026

Rankings  StateRank: 27 / POS: 2

Report: Former Future Gamer from the Catholic League, Terski will be a mainstay in the Falcons lineup in the heart of the order looking to drive in runs from the right side. A rising prospect we figure his best baseball is ahead of him.  

Jack Manzella RHP / SS / Fraser, MI / 2026

Rankings  StateRank: 25 / POS: 12

Report: Another good arm from Fraser who had a strong showing this month at ProCase running the fastball into the 90s with a good slider for strikes. Manzella will lead a Fraser staff this spring and should see plenty of strikeouts with his arsenal. Another uncommitted 2026 to keep tabs on. 

Sam Wildfong C / RHP / Traverse City St. Francis, MI / 2026

Rankings  StateRank: 46 / POS: 4

Report: A two way prospect from the Cherry Capital, Wildfong was atop the leader board in exit velocity, up to 107 mph, and shows current strength in solid frame. More notable his fastball has made jumps this offseason with an old-school delivery into the low 90s, touching 91 at the Western MI PAS.
