Preseason All-State Spotlight: Will Everett


Patrick Johnson
North Carolina Assistant Scouting Director

Each year the month of February in North Carolina is a big one for baseball players.  With the high school spring season coming, and the off-period of November and December, players have had some time to work on their strengths and improve their weaknesses.  They have been in the weight room and in the cages.  As we enter February, Prep Baseball begins its work to continue to identify and update our notes on prospects in North Carolina. 

The Preseason All-State events have become spotlight events in the state.  This year there are 3 opportunities for some of the best players in the state to show-off their off-season gains, while working out with other top talents.  Prep Baseball will be in Greenville, NC on February 3rd, Maiden, NC on February 4th, and Kernersville, NC on February 10th.  The Prep Baseball scouting staff is expecting to see 250 of the top players in North Carolina across these three events.

Below we profile a player that is scheduled to attend a Preseason All-State event.

PRESEASON ALL-STATE SPOTLIGHT: WILL EVERETT

Will Everett RHP / 2B / St Stephens , NC / 2024

KEY STATS:

+FB MAX VELO - 88MPH

+AVG FB SPIN RATE - 2,196

+CB MAX VELO - 73.7MPH

+CB MAX SPIN RATE - 2,519

+CB TOTAL MOVEMENT AVG - 20.7IN

+CH AVG VELO - 77.3MPH

SCOUT NOTES:

Fastball already reaching 88mph and a 6-foot, 170-pound frame I am looking forward to seeing the strides Everett has taken this winter. The Uncommitted senior will be a big piece on the mound for St. Stephens High School this spring where he features a 3 pitch mix of Fastball, Curveball, and Changeup. With plenty of spin (2,519rpms) and Movement (20.7in) on the Curveball, being able to command the zone is going to be the key this spring. Look for Everett to seperate himself from other prospects this spring with a big season.
