Matthew Schroeffel (‘26, Bearden) The sophomore has hit his way into the top part of Bearden's lineup as a sophomore. At 6’2 and 207 pounds he brings a very physical frame that already produces some impressive metrics. He has been 89 across the diamond (which he showed off several times on Monday against Hardin Valley) 87 off of the mound, with 75 mph bat speed. He has an advanced approach at the plate, going the other way with authority easily. Look for him to develop a power stroke going forward as he develops further. A great hitter already that is sure to continue to improve.
Matthew Schroeffel (2026, Bearden) The 2026 3B/RHP had himself an impressive outing Tuesday against Farragut. The 6-2 207 lbs infielder was previously seen by our staff at the Preseason All State event in february in which he had impressive performances both at the plate and on the mound. He shows great upside on the mound getting up to 85, paired with 2 plus offspeed offerings. Has more velo in the tank as he has also been up to 89 across the infield. However, he shined on the offensive side of the ball on tuesday. The uncommitted sophomore faced a stiff challenge in multiple D1 arms, and faced it head on. He has a calm, confident demeanor to him at the plate, paired with a wide stance and quick hands that allowed him to collect 2 hits including a double for Bearden. There is plenty of upside to this ‘26 grad that will be one to watch as the season, and his HS career progresses.
