JACE WOOLEY

2027 INF
HS: CARDINAL NEWMAN
POS: INF
CLASS: 2027
STATUS: Uncommitted

Jace Wooley has had an impressive 2026, making a name for himself as one of the top infielders in the state. Last spring, Wooley hit .375 with 24 hits and was named First Team All-League.

He continued to show his skills this summer at the NorCal ProCase in May and at the Senior Future Games in July. On day one of the Senior Future Games, Wooley posted the fourth-highest average exit velocity (91.4 mph), the second-furthest batted-ball distance (363 ft), and the second-highest sweet-spot rate (66%). Playing for a talented Team West Coast, he had one of the most impressive workouts; but what he did in their three games was even more eye-opening.

2026 SENIOR FUTURE GAMES 

Wooley was one of Team West Coast’s most productive players, going 4-for-7 with four RBIs, three stolen bases, and a walk across three games. A performance like this against some of the nation's top uncommitted arms highlights Wooley’s ability to rise to the spotlight and compete with the best.
