Enid Plainsmen

Overall Record: 19-12
District Record: 11-3

PLAYERS TO WATCH:
RHP Israel Gonzales (2025; Cowley County)
SS/RHP Aidan Robinson (2025; Redlands CC)
CF/RHP Keon Young (2027)
C/OF Zerek Slater (2027)
RHP/UTL Jeron Dow (2027)
1B/LHP Dallas Darrow (2026)
C Baylor Shaw (2028)
3B Cal Gore (2028)
RHP Heath Wisel (2026)

Coach Gore and the Plainsmen will look for their steady 2025 development to carry them through the 6A playoffs this postseason. Poised with a mix of youth and experience, Enid is battle tested with a high level schedule both in the Sooner State and on across the Oklahoma/Arkansas state line. On the mound, they are led by senior Israel Gonzales with his 3-pitch mix and advanced feel for pitching to go along with a low 90 FB. The Plainsmen also have Aidan Robinson, Jeron Dow, and Keon Young to provide both competitiveness and swing and miss stuff to the staff with Dow and Young also providing exceptional upside. Heath Wisel has also continued to develop and turned in productive outings down the stretch. Offensively, Enid is as tough as anyone in the state. Sophomore Zerek Slater, Keon Young, and Aidan Robinson consistently pressure defenses with Dallas Darrow producing from the middle of the lineup. Freshmen Baylor Shaw and Cal Gore have been a big part of Enid’s success this year and have become more of a force down the stretch while also showing a mature approach despite their youth. This battle tested club has shown the ability to win when it matters most and we would not be a surprise to see them make another run through the postseason in 2025.

  

Broken Arrow Tigers

Overall Record: 17-17
District Record: 9-5

PLAYERS TO WATCH:
C/OF Luke Franks (2027)
CF Javen Divine (2026)
SS Jake Lopez (2027)
RHP Landon Thiel (2025; Allen County CC)
OF Collen Dean (2026)
OF Jasper Reid (2028)

Coach Dobson and the Tigers have a lineup full of youth that have added more consistent play throughout the year that has turned into a solid 9-5 district record. They have reloaded their roster following the graduation of a large number of contributors from a year ago and have had various underclassmen step up. Leadoff man and sophomore shortstop Jake Lopez has been steady on both sides of the ball finding ways on base thanks to a mature approach and sure-handed defense. Junior Javen Divine has continued to develop into a well rounded player planted firmly in the middle of the Tigers roster as well. Finally, sophomore Luke Franks brings physicality to the BA lineup with extra base hit potential and can drive in runs at any point. Freshman Jasper Reid has also shown strong upside in a well rounded game as well. On the mound, senior Landon Thiel has shown the ability to beat anyone and gives Broken Arrow a chance to compete anytime he's on the mound. If the Tigers can get production from the bottom portion of their lineup, they have the opportunity to make some noise in regional play this week.

  

Southmoore Sabercats

Overall Record: 18-16
District Record: 5-9

PLAYERS TO WATCH:
OF Kasen Rinehart (2025)
SS/RHP Evan Primrose (2025)
RHP/3B Jake Koweno (2025)
C/RHP Christian DeLoera (2026)

Coach Aguirre and the Sabercats have won five in a row, allowing just two runs in that span, as they approach the postseason and a potential run while playing their best baseballd own the stretch. An up and down year through district play, they are led by upperclassmen that understand what it takes to win this time of year. Seniors Kasen Rinehart, Evan Rinehart, and Jake Koweno have worked out of the top three spots in the order and are relied on to produce a bulk of the offense. Working out of the 4-hole is catcher Christian DeLoera who has been a run producer throughout ht eyear as well. On the mound, the names are much the same with Primrose, Koweno, and DeLoera all turning in valuable innings and give the Sabercats an opportunity to compete with anyone. If the Sabercats can produce enough offense and play sound defense, they can make some noise in regional play.

  

Muskogee Roughers

Overall Record: 13-20
District Record: 3-11

PLAYERS TO WATCH:
OF Chris Daniels (2026)
INF Jace Paul (2026)
OF Kylin Blue (2025)
INF Truth Dedmon (2028)
LHP Avery Browning (2026)

Coach Singler and the Roughers have seen increased success in 2025 with three district wins and 13 total wins including a win over Bartlesville. Their youth and inexperience from past years is seeing their development come to fruition with increased innings played. Offensively, they have shown the ability to score runs in bunches and are led by junior centerfielder Chris Daniels in the leadoff spot and senior outfielder Kylin Blue typically hitting in the 3-hole. Infielders Jace Paul and Truth Dedmon also offer plenty of upside with Dedmon being only a freshman with his best baseball still in front of him. On the mound, junior Avery Browning has turned in impactful starts throughou the year, including a six inning and 1 earned run effort against Union earlier this year. Just two years removed from a big upset postseason win over Broken Arrow, the Roughers are not a team to be taken lightly with a roster gaining more and more experience.
