Tucker Holton (‘25 GA) cruising here early on living in the mid-80s t88. Shown sharp breaking ball in mid-70s that he tunnels well. Good athlete. #PGShowdown @PG_Georgia @CBBearBaseball #ETSU commit pic.twitter.com/sv2l8BLEkv

Beau Bruns (‘27 GA) hammers this one into the gap for a 3B in B3. Real easy strength to the gaps, simple approach and a good athlete. Making an impact early in his HS career. #PGShowdown @PG_Georgia @CBBearBaseball pic.twitter.com/aQykAp2Zjd

🚨#Uncommitted2024🚨. In long relief last night, @jacksparks34 found another gear. He dialed in his command K-ing 5 of the 7 he faced in the 6th and 7th for the win. Pitched to contact, but a ton of swing and miss too. Power stuff.

Can’t overlook the defense of @bubbacoleman6 last night in the #PGShowdown. He played a very clean 3B. Great reads off the bat, good throws, always anticipating. Watch him knock this ball down and get the runner. #LSU Commit. pic.twitter.com/E6eFiHld6N
