Each week, the Prep Baseball Tournament staff across the country nominate the standout performers from PBT events. From that pool, we’ll select 13 players – four pitchers, a two-way, a catcher, four infielders, and three outfielders – to our National Select Team roster. Here’s our National Select Team from June 11 to 15, covering the Prep Baseball Classic, the PBT KC Summer Classic, The Rock 15U Summer Championships, the Great Lakes Program Invite, the Northeast Invite, the STL 16U National Championship, and many others.

JUNE 11-15: SELECTIONS

---

The Starting 13 🏅

Colton Williams LHP / Millard West HS, NE / 2027 PITCHER From the PBT KC Summer Classic: “This uncommitted incoming senior southpaw pitched a dominant six innings at the PBT KC Summer Classic last week. From a low 3/4 slot, Williams located a true five-pitch mix to all sides of the plate that resulted in 10 Ks and just one hit allowed, no runs. He sat 84-86 mph with run and low-80s with a more horizontal two-seamer, and he mixed in a change, slider, and curve as well.” – PBT Staff

Bryson Loveland LHP / OF / Hardin Valley HS, TN / 2027 PITCHER From the Prep Baseball Classic: “Loveland punched out 11 batters at the Prep Baseball Classic in a start that he also reached an 87 mph high with the fastball, mixing in a tight breaking ball, 66-68, and a 75-79 changeup. The pieces are here for Loveland to continue to pop this summer.” – PBT Staff

Bairon Exline RHP / Salem HS, OH / 2028 PITCHER From the Great Lakes Program Invite: “Exline tossed a special six-inning gem on Friday at GLPI, punching out 12 batters without allowing a run. Listed at 6-foot-1, 195 pounds, he was up to 90 mph in the effort with feel for a sharp-spinning slider, 77-80. This was a breakout-type performance for the '28 prospect.” – PBT Staff

Xander Toler RHP / 1B / Waverly HS, OH / 2029 PITCHER From the Great Lakes Program Invite: “Toler is built at an imposing 6-foot-5, 240 pounds, and he led BJES on both sides of the ball over the weekend. The '29 is one of the top-ranked members of his class in Ohio, and he's earned attention so far for his advanced velo, up to 89 mph last weekend with nine Ks in five innings. Naturally, for a player his size, Toler is also able to clobber balls over the fence and he connected for three home runs at the GLPI, too.” – Connor Holdren, Ohio Tournament Director

Rylan Farlow RHP / INF / Greenbrier HS, GA / 2028 UTILITY / TWO-WAY From the Prep Baseball Classic: “Farlow reached a 93.2 mph high at LakePoint during the Classic, which led the event, during a start in which he allowed just one hit in three innings, no runs one walk, with four Ks. He also had two hits in Complete Game Orlando's first three ballgames, showing his promise as a two-way. Farlow is one of the top-ranked players in Georgia's 2028 class.” – PBT Staff

Chris Worrell Jr. C / Oak Creek HS, WI / 2030 CATCHER From the The Rock 15U Summer Championships: “Worrell Jr. earned a place on the Honorable Mentions of this list last week, and he lands on the National Select Team roster this time around after another stellar offensive performance at The Rock Complex in Wisconsin. While playing up an age level, Worrell slugged three more home runs at the 15U Summer Championships while spending time defensively behind the plate and at shortstop. He looks like one of the top 2030 prospects in the Midwest already. He finished 12-for-16 last weekend with three homers, two triples, and 13 RBIs.” – Andy Sroka, National Managing Editor, Scouting

Jaxson Czerniewski 3B / OF / St. Dominic HS, MO / 2028 INFIELD From the STL 16U National Championship: “Czerniewski started off white hot down in St. Louis, going 8-for-8 right away, finishing 9-for-11, including a huge two-out, two-run base hit during bracket play. Physical 6-foot-2, 192-pound hitter with some defensive abilities at the hot corner as well.” – Ryan Malzahn, Head of Tournament Scouting STL

Kanin Summey 1B / Calvary Christian HS, FL / 2028 INFIELD From the PBT East Cup: “Summey had a big week offensively recording a hit in every game he played. Summey went 7-for-14 with two home runs, three doubles, eight RBIs, and seven runs scored.” – Rocco Iervasi, Florida Director of Operations

Landon Maisenbacher SS / Pleasant Plains HS, IL / 2028 INFIELD From the STL 16U National Championship: “Maisenbacher had a monster weekend at the plate. He went 14-for-20 and scored 11 runs, setting the tone at the top of the order for GBA. He has a very relaxed setup and very good rhythm in his swing. He is very short to the baseball, which allows him to be on the barrel consistently. I expect Landon to keep developing and adding more extra-base hits to his already impressive stat lines.” – Ryan Malzahn, Head of Tournament Scouting STL

Christopher Knelly SS / Hazleton Area, PA / 2028 INFIELD From the Northeast Invite: “The No. 57-ranked prospect in Pennsylvania is on the rise after a huge weekend at the Northeast Invite. He brought home the 16U MVP award with his impact at the plate hitting .500 across four games with four doubles, a triple, and a walk-off HR to secure the championship. Knelly is a strong, athletic 5-foot-6, 160-pound prospect with power to all fields. At the plate, he works from a quiet, balanced setup and utilizes a short stride during his load, allowing him to get on time and handle velocity with ease. His compact swing features an efficient uphill path that enables him to drive the baseball from gap to gap. Defensively, Knelly shows smooth, reliable hands with above-average arm strength on the left side of the infield, projecting well at any middle infield position.” – Matthew Laurentino, Northeast Regional Scout

Parker Brann OF / Flower Mound HS, TX / 2028 OUTFIELD From the Texas Program Invitational: “Brann went 11-for-16 at the TPI to help lead USA Prime DFW Red to the 16U championship. Brann did not strike out last weekend, doubled twice, and led the team with five RBIs as well.” – PBT Staff

Kellan Rozgay LHP/OF / Omaha Westview HS, NE / 2030 OUTFIELD From the PBT KC Summer Classic: “Rozgay was among the most productive 2030s that appeared at the KC Summer Classic. Through five games for Millard United, he went 9-for-11 with no Ks and his left-handed swing looks geared for regular, repeat contact. He's also been 81 mph on the mound where his future is also bright as a southpaw.” – PBT Staff

Andrew Oppenheimer OF / Beavercreek HS, OH / 2028 OUTFIELD From the Great Lakes Program Invite: “After earning a place on the OHSBCA first team, all-state roster as a sophomore this past spring for Beavercreek, Oppenheimer hasn't skipped a beat this summer. At the GLPI, he opened the tourney with four extra-base hits in his first two games: a homer, two triples, and a double. Big bat speed in a right-handed swing that helps him generate loud barrels at 5-foot-11, 180 pounds.” – PBT Staff

His final line through four games was .583 (3 2B, 1 HR) and 1.083 SLG, producing five RBIs and four runs scored. He also swiped two bases in the process. A compact swing with aggressive actions made him a line drive machine, and he showed athleticism on the basepaths as well.

+ Hayden Bell
INF · Jones County HS, GA · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the Prep Baseball Classic: “Bell's an interesting player to follow from Factory Select who doubled three times this past weekend at LakePoint. Simple swing that's made some progress in 2026.” – PBT Staff

+ Cameron Brewer
LHP · Russell County HS, AL · Class of 2027 · Uncommitted
From the Prep Baseball Classic: “Brewer's an unranked lefty from Harris County Colt 45s who should have some more attention for himself moving forward, especially after authoring an 11-K outing at the Prep Baseball Classic in which he was 83-88 mph. He's also built at 6-foot-2, 170 pounds, so there's a lot more to like here about his future projection as well.” – PBT Staff

+ Braxton Bruns
OF/RHP · Rochelle Township HS, IL · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the The Rock 15U Summer Championships: “Bruns is trending as one of the most interesting two-ways in Illinois' 2029 class. Loose right-handed swing with a natural ability to land backspin balls that carry over the fence, like the homer he slugged at The Rock last weekend. He's also a low-80s arm on the mound with a bright future on the bump, too.” – PBT Staff

+ Brayden Carroll
RHP/3B · Bell County HS, KY · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the Prep Baseball Classic: “This Kentucky '28 pitched 5.1 innings down at LakePoint last weekend and K'd 10 batters with just one run on three hits while sitting in the low-80s. He also added four hits and two steals offensively.” – PBT Staff

+ Maddox Carson
C · Geneva HS, IL · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the The Rock 15U Summer Championships: “Carson is turning into one of the most interesting '29s in the state of Illinois, moving into the top-20 in the state's most recent rankings update. At The Rock last weekend, he was one of the hottest hitters of the tournament. It's an athletic, loose right-handed swing and he looks the part behind the plate as well.” – PBT Staff

+ Cutler Chastain
LHP · Bedford-North Lawrence HS, IN · Class of 2027 · Indiana State
From the Great Lakes Program Invite: “Chastain authored a strong start on Saturday that helped further push Canes Midwest American through the GLPI, where they eventually won the whole thing.

+ Cole Cheatham
RHP · Union County HS, IN · Class of 2027 · West Virginia
From the Great Lakes Program Invite: “Cheatham K'd five batters in two innings against the Cincy Flames and he was up to 97 mph with both his elite secondaries working, an 80-82 breaking ball and a change, 83-85. He's the top-ranked prospect in Indiana's incoming senior class.” – PBT Staff

+ Nicholas Chiarodo
SS/RHP · Edwardsville HS, IL · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the STL 16U National Championship: “Chiarodo had a great weekend both on the mound and at the plate. I watched him take a perfect game into the fifth inning. He finished with 4.2 IP, 0 H, 8 K. He is one of the most polished arms I've seen in the '28 class. He has an effective four-pitch mix that he pounds the zone with. He also is our No. 1-ranked shortstop in Illinois. He went 9-for-21 on the weekend with two doubles, two triples, and a homer. I expect Nick to be one of the bigger recruits in the '28 class as he continues to add size and strength.” – Ryan Malzahn, Head of Tournament Scouting STL

+ Shane Christy
SS · ThunderRidge HS, CO · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the PBT KC Summer Classic: “Christy went 5-for-9 last week in Kansas City with a double and two triples, as well as a team-high six RBIs, with four walks and just one K. He's a top-25-ranked prospect in Colorado with 6.81 speed and bat strength in a right-handed swing.” – PBT Staff

+ Kal Cihocki
RHP/3B · South Lewis HS, NY · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the Northeast Invite: “A gritty player with a bulldog mentality on the mound, Cihocki dominated the field on both sides of the ball this weekend. Offensively, he went 5-for-9 with a double, driving in two runs. He also scored five runs and stole three bags in a four-game stretch. Sunday, he took the bump and tossed a CG gem, racking up nine Ks and allowing no runs and just one walk. With his strong, athletic frame and was able to run the heater up to 85 mph, holding 83-84 through seven strong. In March at his scout day, he posted 78 mph bat speed and a 97 mph EV, which was on full display this weekend as well.” – Josh Mitchell, Director, The Lumber Yard

+ Brayden Cisneros
INF/OF · Liberty North HS, MO · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the PBT KC Summer Classic: “Cisneros has a dynamic and adjustable right-handed swing that allows him to spread contact all over the field. He had multi-hit games in several contests in KC and he's a versatile defender that can play on he infield or the outfield. This was a great look at an up-and-coming prospect in Missouri.” – PBT Staff

+ Kyren Dance
SS · Waynesville HS, MO · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the PBT KC Summer Classic: “Dance was 5-for-14 last week with a team-high six RBIs and eight runs scored. He recently moved up Missouri's Class of 2029 rankings, too, now ranked inside the top-20.” – PBT Staff

+ Alex Douros
OF/SS · Shorewood HS, WI · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted

+ Brady Egan
SS · Bloomingdale HS, FL · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted

+ Theodore Fisher
UTL · Liberty North HS, MO · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the PBT KC Summer Classic: “Fisher bounced all over the diamond during the KC Summer Classic but made his biggest impact offensively, most notably in Friday's matchup. In that contest, Fisher was 3-for-4 with two home runs and RBIs. Long levers on a 6-foot-3, 170-pound build which raises the ceiling to his right-handed swing.” – PBT Staff

+ Cooper Graham
RHP · Mukwonago HS, WI · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the The Rock 15U Summer Championships: “Graham has firmly established himself as the top-ranked '29 in the state of Wisconsin after becoming a reliable, go-to starter on varsity inside the state's toughest conference. Last weekend at The Rock, it was more of the same for Graham, he was up to 90 mph in a dominant look with curveball feel, 72-75, and a deceptive change, 80-83. He has a workhourse 6-foot-2, 215-pound stature, too.” – PBT Staff

+ Barry Harkness Jr.
OF · Archbishop Moeller, OH · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the Great Lakes Program Invite: “It's an arrow pointed way up this summer already for Harkness, who tallied multiple extra-base hits for Gem City this past weekend, including a four-hit game with five RBIs, two doubles, and a home run. He's a 6.74 runner ranked just outside Ohio's top-50.” – Connor Holdren, Ohio Tournament Director

UTL/RHP · Valley View HS, AR · Class of 2027 · Uncommitted

+ Carter Houseman
OF · Urbana HS, OH · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the Great Lakes Program Invite: “Houseman was 8-for-18 at the GLPI, tallying two doubles and a homer along the way. He's a tooled-up '29 with a left-handed swing and sub-7.00 speed and his toolkit has already earned him a reputation as one of the top prospects in the region ranked inside the top-200 nationally.” – PBT Staff

+ Brekken Howard
OF/RHP · Mukwonago HS, WI · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the The Rock 15U Summer Championships: “It's hard to top a start like the one Howard put together at The Rock Complex last weekend. For GRB STiKS, Howard K'd 10 batters in four shutout innings with just two walks. He might even be better positionally, too, with athleticism in a left-handed swing.” – PBT Staff

+ Lucas Kamerzell
RHP/OF · Blue Valley HS, KS · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the PBT KC Summer Classic: “Kamerzell had five extra-base hits for Building Champions across five games, including a homer on Sunday that left the bat at 101 mph EV. He's even more well-known as a prospect for his work on the mound where he's been up to 90 mph; worked mid-80s last Sunday (T87 mph) with seconday feel in 4.1 clean frames.” – PBT Staff

+ Austin Krenzel
RHP · Dublin Jerome HS, OH · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the Great Lakes Program Invite: “Krenzel is a budding '29 arm from Ohio with prospect pedigree already. He was up to 86 mph at the GLPI for BJES with advanced feel for a changeup that helped him go 4.2 innings strong with no runs allowed, four hits, and nine Ks.” – PBT Staff

+ Tatum Mabus
SS/3B · Millard North HS, NE · Class of 2027 · Uncommitted
From the PBT KC Summer Classic: “Mabus was 5-for-14 in KC last week, though four of his five hits went for extra bases, including two home runs.

+ Mac Martin
SS/3B · Denton Guyer HS, TX · Class of 2027 · Uncommitted
From the Texas Program Invitational: “Martin was constantly on base for Cobras throughout the TPI, alongside the team's run to the 17U TPI title. He doubled and homered on Friday in the team's win over 1836 Roughriders, and he finished by reaching safely in each of the team's six games on the weekend.” – PBT Staff

+ Brady Nelson
C/1B · Staley HS, MO · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the PBT KC Summer Classic: “Nelson swung one of the hottest bats of the KC Summer Classic, recording multiple mid-90s EVs and even a couple triple-digit batted balls. He launched a two-run homer on Friday that left the bat at 98 mph EV and traveled over the right-center fence, his opposite gap. He has big arm strength from behind the plate and obvious right-handed bat strength too.” – PBT Staff

+ Garrett Olson
LHP · Fruitport HS, MI · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the The Rock 15U Summer Championships: “Olson came to The Rock with an established prospect pedigree as one of the top-ranked lefties in the Great Lakes region, and really the nation. He got the win in a start during bracket play for Hit Dogs after punching out five batters in four clean innings. Olson was 82-85 mph in the start with an exceptional changeup, 68-71, and feel for a breaking ball, 70-72. He's 6-foot-5, 185 pounds, and the sky is the limit.” – PBT Staff

+ Koa Peters
1B · Lambert HS, GA · Class of 2027 · Uncommitted
From the Prep Baseball Classic: “Peters put together a loud Saturday morning down at LakePoint. He got off two line-drive barrels during the game, each at 98.5 mph EV and 99.1, respectively, collecting two hits, a single and a triple. Starting with his hands at the center of his chest, Peters creates rhythm with his swing, bringing his hands back during his load. He pairs the hand shift with a quick leg kick to get into some power. His swing, and results like those on Saturday should make Peters a bat to watch this summer. He led the tourney with seven RBIs, too.” – PBT Staff

+ Tilden Reams
LHP · Centennial HS, GA · Class of 2027 · Uncommitted
From the Prep Baseball Classic: “The 6-foot-1, 175-pound southpaw pitched a dominant performance for Compete Baseball at the Classic. He tossed six scoreless innings and allowed just two hits, K'ing 11 batters with mid-80s velo and a tournament high 56.1 percent whiff rate due to a carry fastball that he naturally adds deception to, hiding the ball down the mound. It's a tough at-bat and he's a noteworthy uncommitted incoming senior to monitor.” – PBT Staff

+ Cooper Rice
LHP/1B · Jones County HS, GA · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the Prep Baseball Classic: “Rice was a strong look on the mound, in one of his games he grinded through six innings and over 90 pitches while continuing to miss bats throughout the day. The left-hander worked 80-86 mph with the fastball, pairing it with a 69-73 mph breaking ball and a 69-72 mph changeup to keep hitters off balance. Rice showed feel for the zone and was able to generate plenty of swinging strikes. He stood out with the ability to hold his stuff deep into the outing and continue competing. He also contributed offensively at Classic by collecting multiple hits and showing a simple, controlled swing with the ability to put the barrel on the baseball. At 6-foot-3 and 214 pounds with a high impact on the game on both sides of the ball, at Rice is a 2028 left-hander to follow.” – PBT Staff

+ Brodie Robbins
RHP · Tift County HS, GA · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the Prep Baseball Classic: “From the first pitch there was clear confidence and poise coming from the hill as Robbins went right after batters early and often. Robbins only needed a two-pitch mix to set down batters with ease as he showed ability to pitch both offerings in any count and sequenced with high efficiency. The fastball had slight tail to it at 81-85 mph, and spun in the 2,100 rpm range. This was paired with a slider that had minimal difference in release point, allowing for a decent tunnel and to induce uncomfortable swings (70-73 mph). Across his five innings, he picked up six Ks and only allowed one unearned run on one hit and no walks. Robbins also rocks a great swing with multiple doubles in bracket play. Robbins has a slow and controlled leg kick with high speed while working deep into counts and grabbing barrels across the diamond.” – PBT Staff

+ Hunter Robinson
C/1B · Byron Nelson HS, TX · Class of 2027 · Uncommitted
From the Texas Program Invitational: “Robinson connected for a couple home runs on the Cobras' ride to the TPI 17U trophy. He's a physical 6-foot-1, 215-pound slugger with a strong right-handed swing who made his presence felt all weekend.” – PBT Staff

+ Blace Rodina
RHP · Spring Hill HS, KS · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the PBT KC Summer Classic: “Rodina is a promising member of Kansas' 2029 class and he authored a strong start during the KC Summer Classic last week. He pitched five shutout innings and allowed just two hits while striking out nine batters. He sat in the 79-82 mph range with feel to spin a breaking ball, 71-73.” – PBT Staff

+ Cale Shellnutt
RHP · Providence Christian HS, GA · Class of 2027 · Uncommitted
From the Prep Baseball Classic: “Shellnutt had an outstanding outing today for USA Prime Deep South’s second pool play game of the day where he went 5.2 innings and allowed just one hit, no runs, with 11 Ks. Shellnutt had a really good feel for every one of his pitches and could consistently locate his pitches on all parts of the plate. Of Shellnutt’s 11 Ks today he had five of them were looking which was due to him locating each one of his pitches well. The fastball sat around 83-87 mph with above-average raw spin. To pair, Shellnutt had an hammer of a curve, 69-73. The final pitch of his three-pitch mix was a nasty change that showed arm-side action.” – PBT Staff

+ Carter Smith
RHP · Harlem HS, GA · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the Prep Baseball Classic: “Smith earned whiffs at a 46.3 percent rate during his start at the Classic, sitting 81-84 mph while filling up the zone, mixing in a 71-73 mph slider effectively.” – PBT Staff

+ Maddox Stephan
LHP · South Forsyth HS, GA · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the Prep Baseball Classic: “The '29 left-hander really impressed on Friday of the Prep Baseball Classic. Stephan tossed a two-hitter across five innings of work while striking out 10 batters. He showcased a three pitch mix that kept hitters off balance. The fastball sat 79-83 mph with run. Stephan attacked the outer half to right-handed batters living on the corner. The curve sat 68-70 mph with sweeping action. He displayed the ability to backdoor to righties for strikes and generate a lot of chase. The change sat 75-77 mph and kept hitters off balance. Stephan also worked with pace throughout his start keeping hitters uncomfortable in the box. He K'd 10 batters in the start total.” – PBT Staff

+ Tru Tracy
SS · Blue Valley West HS, KS · Class of 2027 · Uncommitted
From the PBT KC Summer Classic: “Tracy was 6-for-10 last week in KC for MOJO Baseball, and four of his six hits went for extra bases, two of which were homers. He's the No. 40-ranked incoming senior in Kansas with an upside right-handed swing.” – PBT Staff

+ Caiden Watson
C/3B · Williamson HS, NY · Class of 2028 · Uncommitted
From the Northeast Invite: “Watson is 16-years old and he played in our 17/18U division this past weekend and batted .500 across four games with eight RBIs and three runs scored. He also had two triples and a home run. He is short and compact to the ball with great use of the lower half, allowing him to time up velocity easily and get some power behind it as well. Watson also threw out two runners from behind the dish this past weekend.” – Jon Harris, Northeast Asst. Director

+ Leyton West
OF · Hartselle HS, AL · Class of 2030 · Uncommitted
From the PBT Alabama Open: “West is an impressive young prospect who already possesses a strong, physical 6-foot, 167-pound frame and a mature offensive skill set for his age. The left-handed hitter showed present impact at the plate throughout the weekend, producing low-90s exit velocities and flashing power potential to all fields. West put that strength on display during Saturday's action, collecting a pair of triples while consistently driving the baseball with authority. He works with a slightly uphill path through the zone and shows natural feel for the barrel, allowing him to create quality contact and extra-base damage. With his combination of physicality, bat speed, and offensive upside, West is a 2030 prospect who continues to stand out among his peers.” – PBT Alabama Scouting Staff

+ Ty Ziesemer
LHP · Lake Country Lutheran HS, WI · Class of 2029 · Uncommitted
From the The Rock 15U Summer Championships: “Ziesmer tossed a strong outing at The Rock last weekend for the 15U Summer Championships in Wisconsin. There, he struck out nine batters in 5.2 scoreless, hitless innings of work. The fastball sat 77-80 mph and he had feel for a couple secondaries, a breaking ball, 68-69, and a change, 70-71. He threw 81 percent strikes in this outing and yet he did not allow a hit despite living in the zone as often as he was.” – PBT Staff
