Verbal Commitments for 2005 Class

Outstanding!!!!! Nick has a wonderful arm. He's a great pickup for Oklahoma (for anywhere for that matter). Behind him, I expect South Stokes to make it 4 in a row.

Here are a couple more that we've missed over here. Braves, you know of couple of these guys better than I do ... give us an update where you can!

Evan Ocheltree, Collegiate School (VA) to Wake Forest, RPH
Dustin Stultz, Rockingham HS to Elon Phoenix, LPH
Andy John, Leesville Road High School to Western Carolina, OF/C

 

I know Evan..tall, lanky..should fill out nicely. Reminds me a lot of Ed Teague. Long sweeping swing...great pick up by Wake Forest

 

great link! Thanks

NC colleges let a big catch for OU get away!

 

Two more NC Commitments:

Tyler Leach, Kings Mountain HS, RPH/1B, Virginia Tech
Zac Kennedy, South Mecklenburg, OF, UAB

Great job guys ... Tyler is playing for the Impact Dirtbags this fall. Zac is playing with On Deck.

For our south of the border friends:
Chance Gilmore, son of Coastal Carolina HC Gary Gilmore, has given his verbal commitment to the University of Virginia.

 

Latest word on commitments:

Jacob Allen, Millbrook HS, SS , Campbell
Ryan Hamme, Ashley HS, 3B, Campbell
Ben Billingsly, Richmond County, SS, ASU
Isaac Harrow, Hickory HS, SS/3B, ASU

 

That would be Jacob Allen....

David Rubenstein

Congrats go out to David Rubenstein from South Meck. He recently verbally committed to App State.

We've had the pleasure of knowing and playing with this fine young man since 12 years of age. Appalachian is really getting an excellent ball player. That boy has a CANNON from centerfield!!

Joel and Deloris should be very proud of David's accomplishments, on and off the field.

Good luck and congratulations again!!

 

:applause: ..way to go David. That's two from the Sabres to attend App State. David led the conference in hitting last year and also has developed into a pretty good pitcher. He may be the most talented player on a loaded South Meck team. Congratulations to Deloris and Joel, as well. They have developed an equally impressive young man as well.

Can't wait for the spring to arrive

 

Top players still available?

Obviously, the list starts with Cameron Maybin (but everyone expects him to go in the first round). Who do you expect to hear has committed during the next week-10 days? Here is a list to consider:

Garrett Bullock, JH Rose
Wes Wrenn, Wesleyan
Hampton Foushee, RJ Reynolds
Bradley Holt, Albemarle
Marc Nicholson, Independence
Aaron Bray, Independence
DJ Mitchell, North Forsyth
Levi Wright, North Henderson

 

Another couple:

Houston Summers, Catcher, NW Guilford HS to Elon
Jason Rook, RHP, Western Guilford HS to App State

App State is building a young powerhouse. I think this is their first pitcher commitment to go with the 4 IF players they've nabbed.
