2/14/26
After putting up eye-popping numbers as a sophomore last spring, Fontenot has come out of the gates on fire again in 2026. Across three games last week, the former Jr. Future Gamer and East Central Community College commit went 7-for-10 (.700) with two doubles, an RBI, four runs scored, and two stolen bases — consistently setting the tone for the Eagles’ offense. What stands out most is the simplicity of his operation in the box. Fontenot features a quiet, balanced setup with minimal pre-pitch movement, allowing him to track the ball deep and maintain excellent barrel control. That simplicity translates to adjustability. Whether the pitch is in, away, up, or down, he consistently finds the sweet spot. We saw him turn on pitches and drive them with authority to the pull side, and just as easily stay through the baseball and shoot it the other way — a true all-fields approach that makes him tough to defend. With his bat-to-ball skills, controlled aggression, and early-season production, Fontenot looks poised for another big spring at the top of the Eagles’ lineup.

Clayton Fontenot, St. Michael The Archangel (LA), 2027
Positional Profile: OF/LHP Former Jr. Future Gamer.
Body: 5-10, 155-pounds. Athletic.
Hit: LHH. Slightly wider and athletic set-up with hands held abnove shoulder height, uses a simple load and stride. Simple swing, repeats well, drives the bat head down to contact and stays flat through extension finishing with two hands. Good bat to ball skills, more of a contact hitter right now, but can hit the ball to all fields, stays mostly on a line or hard on the ground to use his speed.
Power: 90 max exit velocity, averaged 80.8 mph. 235' max distance.
Arm: LH. OF-84 mph. Long, loose arm swing with a 3/4 release.
Defense: Good athlete, receives the ball out front with one and two hands off the middle to right side of his body, showed increased arm strength from our last look at him, gets good jumps and reads off the bat and has a chance to stick in CF.
ATH: 6.86 runner in the 60. 1.67 and 3.83 in the 10 and 30 yard splits.
