Congratulations @Henry_Tutera28 of @greeniesports on your Commitment to @ClemsonBaseball One of the best swings I've ever seen come out of WNC; lightening bat speed. Henry has worked tirelessly to become one of the best players in NC. As I told him the other day after hearing about his Commitment, "This one's all you, buddy." His Commitment isn't shocking, as anyone who has had a chance to evaluate Henry can clearly see the talent and tools of a potential Pro Prospect one day. Back in June of 2025, Henry was named the Top Player at our Prospect Filming although he was competing amongst a loaded roster of 2026s & 27s. It was evident quickly, that he was gonna be just fine in the Recruiting process if he kept after it. And he did. 6.7 runner, 90 mph arm, Sub 1.9 pop times; but it's not just the Tools; his performance is elite. Tutera made several Varsity All-State lists followed by a loud Summer on the National Circuit with the Dirtbags. His potential was immediately evident at any of the D1 College Camps he attended as well; it was no wonder his phone was ringing on midnight, Aug 1st. P4 spots are rare for High School recruits, so I was encouraged to hear about Henry's due diligence in the process, as he did the necessary visits, asked tough questions, and made a decision knowing full well he has to keep his foot on the gas to fulfill the opportunity. No matter if you are JUCO, D3, or an elite P4 prospect coming out of High School, you MUST participate in the Recruiting process the same way, with attention to detail, good communication, and a sense of realism. Since Private School isn't as abundant in WNC as it is in the Charlotte Metro region, I find it wild that some Baseball fans in our region don't know about Henry sometimes (another reason Public and Private need to play one another more in WNC). You should do yourself a favor and go catch a Christ School game this Spring. @Chris_Womack @jbel242 @GriffMazur @nischnab @CalebPenner5

Congratulations @wbolyard2007 of @HHSBSBL on your Commitment to @WUSandlot At the buzzer! One final 2026 Grad to celebrate as Bolyard will be heading up North to PA to attending @WaynesburgU Glad to see Will getting the opportunity as the wiry athlete can contribute all over the diamond and on the bump. D3 is a great route right now for High School grads. Waynesburg offers a unique environment for our WNC grads as its located in the same mountain range and offers a similar lifestyle. Located about 13 miles from the WV line, Waynesburg is less than a 7 hour drive to WNC and offers over 70 different degree paths @CImpellittiere @Chris_Womack @VeloBaseballWNC
