Charles Becker, 2027, RHP, Oceanside Collegiate
The sophomore right-hander was impressive! He scattered 4 hits and only allowed 1 run over 4.2 innings while appearing to battle an ankle injury. His FB sat 85-86 and touched 87 and mixed well with a breaking ball in the low 70s. He showed competitiveness and poise when pitching out of the rare trouble that he faced on the night.

Andrew Palmer, 2025, CF, Oceanside Collegiate
ETSU Commit, Palmer was the best player on the field on the night! Finishing a double short of the cycle, scoring 3 runs and collecting 2 RBIs, he showed power to all fields with a triple off the wall to right center and a home run to left center that landed in the Wando River. He also showed great speed on the bases and tracking down several fly balls in CF.
