Every Friday we recap all commitments that were made throughout our coverage area. If we missed you or someone that you know is not on the Commitment List, let us know by filling out our Commitment Form.
Carson Jones, LHP, Steward School, 2019
Jones committed to Virginia. He is a lanky lefty that throws from a low three-quarters arm slot. He has a quick arm, generating velocity with normal effort. His shoulders are closed as he strides to a closed landing with a fall off. His fastball had late run, sitting 82-83 and touching 84 in a short relief appearance in May. We have reports that his fastball has shown consistent mid-80s velocity and reached as high as 88 this summer.
Hunter Williams, LHP, Windsor, 2017
Williams committed to Radford. Williams is an athletic lefty with a projectable frame who throws from a high three-quarters arm slot with a smooth drop and drive delivery. He has a short arm action and throws with normal effort. His shoulders are level and closed as he strides out on line to a square landing. Williams fastball had slight run and very good downward plane and sat 81-83 at the Fall Prospect Games in November. His curveball had sharp 1/7 break and decent armspeed, running 62-66. His changeup had good armspeed and ran 69.
Congrats guys!!!
