Washington Uncommitted Spotlight - '26 C/INF Carter Collins
November 3, 2025
As we conclude the fall showcase season, Prep Baseball Washington features an Uncommitted Spotlight, where we highlight standout performers that attended a Prep Baseball 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 '26 C/INF Carter Collins. The Gig Harbor High School senior impressed at multiple events this summer, first at the Spokane Summer ID and later at PNW State Games.
A 5'10 prospect, Collins' summer was highlighted by a 2.00 second pop time and exit velocities into the mid-90's. Below is a complete breakdown of the player, including scouting reports and video from the summer.
