Luke Metzler, RHP, Myers Park HS. 2021
FB/SL mix, fastball has late run down and in. Threw both pitches for strikes in any count, induced lots of weak contact. 4Ks/2BBs across 6 innings, gave up one unearned run in the bottom of the 4th. Metzler also went 1-4 at the plate with a run scored.
Metzler flips a front-door SL for strike three to get out of a big jam.

Carrington Williams, OF, Durham Jordan HS, 2021
Chowan commit. Strong LHH with speed out of the batter's box. Hit three balls on the barrel, including a rocket double to the right field fence in the first inning. Finished 2-4 on the night.
Carrington Williams (@ChowanBaseball commit) gets the Falcons on the board with a ball back up the middle that gets away from 2B. Williams smoked a double his first AB, confident hitter with pull side power.

Daniel Shuta, OF, Myers Park HS, 2023
Athletic 6-foot-1, 190 pounds. 2-4 on the night, but 4 barrels to the pull side including a two-run home run in the 2nd inning. Added a double in the top of the 5th.
Luke Barbaryka - OF, Myers Park HS. 2021
Physical 6-foot-3, 215 pounds. Right handed hitter. 1-2 with a long HR to follow Shuta's. Lots of strength with an aggressive approach, looks to do damage early in counts.

Patient left handed bat with a good contact tool. 2-2 on the day with two singles and a walk, comfortable hitting the ball to all fields.
