Dawsyn Anderson is Ready for the Big Stage
November 8, 2025
RHP and Oregon commit Dawsyn Anderson has risen from his freshman self into the senior leader he knows he is, and it’s been quite a ride.
“My parents and I have kind of thought about it, like it's been a journey from my freshman year to my senior year, and it's been a really fun journey,” Anderson said.
As a commit to play baseball at the University of Oregon next year, Anderson knows he has to fight for every inning.
“I'm just there to work. I want to win games and carry them to a title,” Anderson said.
Right now, Anderson is finishing up his last year at North Kitsap High School, with a clear goal in mind to get past the quarterfinals and compete for a championship.
Last season, the Vikings came up short in the 2A state quarterfinals, ending a 21-5 finish for the year.
“I want to make it to the state championship. That's my personal goal,” Anderson said.
Anderson has made some huge strides and has developed not only as an ace for North Kitsap, but one of the most imposing arms in Washington. The breakout started in the winter at Pacific Northwest Preseason All-State, Prep Baseball's top invite-only event.
Anderson continued to impress into the spring. In an in-game look, the righty held his velocity in a cold, wet environment.

Anderson likes to tinker with his changeup, and though he doesn’t use it often, he likes having the opportunity to surprise his opponents in the zone by switching it up from his polished fastball. He also mixes in a curveball to complete his arsenal. With his success this year, Anderson feels good about his chances heading into his senior year.
“I feel great. I feel confident. I have no doubts that I can go into the season being a powerhouse and compete with anybody,” Anderson said.
Anderson's high school coach, Jeff Weible, was the catcher for the Vikings the last time they made it to state. Anderson has a different relation than most to Weible. Anderson's dad and Weible played college baseball together at the University of Washington.
Anderson’s dad has played a big role in his development by helping him focus on one thing at a time. His dad guides him to not let anything get in his head and encourages staying positive before games.
“I’ll always thank him for that,” Anderson said.
A senior this year, Anderson is looking forward to leading the underclassman, and he says that he likes to push them and is always a call away.
“If they have any questions or pitching advice that they need, I give it to them. I think that our team has a lot of potential,” Anderson said.
North Kitsap will put their faith in Anderson in big-time games for one more season in 2026.
