Class of 2029 Rankings: Initial Top 10
November 24, 2025
Our first edition of the Nevada 2029 Rankings comes after an initial follow period, spanning from early 2025 (and for some even before) to now, where our staff was able to make early evaluations on players that attended our Rising Stars series, the Rising Stars Games and the Prep Baseball Junior Future Games, along with a handful of Prep Baseball Scout Days.
It is important to note, this list stands mostly as an identifier list --- sure to change as players mature, but reflective of our evaluations to date on the class. As we gain more and more looks on the class, and start to see them compete at the varsity level and marquee events on the circuit, our confidence level will rise further with each list that we put out. For now, this list is comprised of early favorites in the class - talented freshman who have shown the traits that we value while standing out above their peers. We look forward to following these early favorites over the next four years, and inevitably we will see several players left off this list, or current follows, make a splash at some point in their high school career.
Without further ado, read along to find our initial class of 2029 Top 10, along with some notes regarding the list in total, and each player finding their name on this prestigious list. To follow, we release our high follow list, jampacking 50 names that we are excited to follow into one place.
The Road to the Super Sophomore Games, Future Games and West Coast Games starts at the upcoming Preseason ID's. Register for your Preseason ID today - HERE
THE INITIAL TOP 10

1. Tucker Christman SS / C / Arbor View, NV / 2029Christmas is a player that is built up a ton of excitement around him over the past few years, and rightfully so, with present tools that were on full display earlier this year as well as the projectability in his frame that gives him the nod as the top player in Nevada's Initial 2029 Class Rankings. With his brother, LSU Signee - Colt Christman, paving the way, Tucker has a great example to follow over the next few years and we will be excited to follow him along that journey.

2. Michael Bergin SS / 2B / Faith Lutheran, NV / 2029Bergin is another player that came into our initial Las Vegas Rising Stars ID with a ton of excitement around him, and he proved what the excitement was all about with an exceptional BP session that he followed up with, and improved on, at the recent GBG Vegas Scout Day. The advanced actions are there throughout his game and we expect Bergin to be a player that has a chance to crack a stout Faith Lutheran lineup early in his high school career.

Ajay Hermosura SS / 2B / Bishop Gorman, NV / 2029A player that impressed us each time out during the summer, Hermosura It's going to be a player that we expect to be on more than a few radars heading into next summer.

He can command the zone with his three pitch mix as well as hold down 1B with athletic actions around and off the bag, amplifying his infields confidence wiht his ability to handle the ball in the dirt.
