NO. 1 Most Viewed NC Profile of 2025

1. Connor Salerno | LHP | Sun Valley HS | 2027 | Mississippi State Commit

Salerno finished 2025 as the most viewed profile in North Carolina following a nationally prominent year. The left-hander was named MVP of the Prep Baseball All-American Game in Miami, solidifying his status as one of the premier arms in the country. After returning to North Carolina from a South Carolina high school, Salerno helped lead Sun Valley to the second round of the NCHSAA State Championship tournament, driving consistent interest from college coaches and professional scouts alike. 

Shortly after his big outing in Miami, Salerno made his college decision, choosing to head to Starkville and become a Mississippi State Bulldog.  Salerno enters his Junior season as one of the most intriguing arms in the country and this upcoming spring and summer will continue to see a lot of buzz around his outings.  One of the premier lefty's in the country will be firmly on the radar of MLB Scouts as we begin to look ahead to the 2027 MLB Draft.
