Oregon Uncommitted Spotlight - '25 INF/RHP Lucas Culbertson
April 14, 2025
As the Oregon high school baseball season continues, Prep Baseball features an Uncommitted Spotlight, where we highlight standout performers that attended a Prep Baseball Preseason ID event this year. Uncommitted spotlights are meant to showcase players that Prep Baseball Scouts felt showed standout tools, large improvements in overall game, or potential upside moving forward. College coaches and recruiters should be sure to keep an eye on these prospects in the coming months.
This week, we spotlight '25 INF/RHP Lucas Culbertson. The senior out of Glencoe High School was most recently seen at the Pacific Northwest Preseason ID this February.
A 6'1, 200 pound athlete, Culbertson posted some loud numbers throughout the day during his showcase. A multi-sport athlete with tools on both sides of the baseball, Culbertson is a name to circle for college coaches. Below is a complete breakdown of the player, including video and scouting reports from the event.
