We couldn't rank these hitters or overall prospects in any order. All we can assure you is that there are some serious big time prospects in the 2012 class. Speed, Power, Athleticism, Bats, Arms, and one of the most exciting classes behind the plate in our 6 years of doing this.

 

Luke Lowery - Cosby (VA) - Lowery has matured as not only one of the top catching prospects in VA but in the country. He is a physical specimen, has a CANNON for an arm, is a sound reciever and has big time power in his stick. Lowery popped 1.83, 1.87 and 1.90 on his 3 throws and tanked 5 of his 12 BP balls out of the yard - 3 to dead center. This kid has the right attitude and the knows how to get it done. Exciting prospect. You can see him with the CANES for the rest of his High School days and at Cosby High School!

 

Kyle Moore - Nansemond River (VA) - Moore ran 6.78 in the 60 and had a great BP round. Very athletic outfielder that can flag it down with a great arm. Moore chunked 88 MPH from the outfield in his 3 throws on a head high line! We like Kyle's bat as a gap to gap type hitter with some occasional homerun power. Makeup is off the charts! K-Mo will be in a Canes Uniform in 2010 and 2011!

 

Josh Henderson - Home Schooled (VA) - Josh attended a Canes tryout a few months back and has busted onto the scene. He is a freakish athlete who has some serious baseball skills. Left handed bat and the ball jumps off his bat.  He has a plus arm from the outfield and is a sub 7.0 runner. Henderson has a ton of raw ability. We are super pumped up to see his progression as a baseball player over the next 2 years of his high school career. Henderson took a great BP, ran well, and threw great from the OF. MAJOR PROSPECT.

 

Max Schrock - Cardinal Gibbons (NC) - Max is one of the top hitters in the 2012 class in the country, can pick it in the field, great accurate arm and just an overall dirty baseball player. Plus left handed bat with some power. It seems no matter the type of arm Max faces, the fat part of the bat finds the ball and does so HARD!  Schrock has really came into his own as an infielder. This kid is a legit Shortstop at the next level, off the charts at Second Base and would do a great job at 3B as well. Schrock will be with the CANES for the next few years and is emerging as a professional prospect!

 

Addison Braswell - Fuquay Varina (NC) - Addison is a big strong left handed hitter. 7.0 runner with a big, strong frame. Behind the plate he has some arm strength and does a good job back there. His biggest attribute is his bat from the left side. Everyone loves a big physical bat from the left side and Addison is one of the best around in the 2012 class around. Great make up! Major Prospect!

 

Connor Henderson - Bethel (VA) - Henderson has emerged as a very physical prospect with the bat in his hand. We have seen him hit 400' + homers since he was 14 and he has got nothing but stronger. He plays SS for his high school team but is a corner power bat guy at the next level. When he keeps his swing short, there is some serious juice in his bat. Good arm strength and can play 3B at the next level as well as be a great fit at 1B for someone. Outstanding kid with great make up and knows how to play the game!

 

Christian Younce - Kellam (VA) - Younce is one of the most polished catchers in the 2012 class in VA.  he is a sub 2.0 arm on the bag - ALWAYS! Younce has put together some very impressive outings on the bump this year in his sophomore campaign for Kellam. He has a wirey build that has filled out a lot in the past year and should fill ot even more. He has a great swing with good balance and he is really coming into his own as a next level hitter. Younce is going to be one of those pitcher/catcher prospects that everyone wants on their team!

 

Matt Reed - Loudon Valley (VA) - Reed is one of the top overall prospects in the 2012 class in VA. He pretty much has it all - bat speed, swings it for average and power as wll as big time arm strength.  He can be an upper 80's closer on the mound and has a CANNON from behind the plate.  All 3 of his throws sunday were head high laser beams on the bag at 1.91, 1.91 and 1.93. Great makeup and very physical body. To top it off, he can play the outfield if need be and is a 7.0 runner. Big Time Prospect! You can see Reed with Canes for the rest of his High School days!

 

Shane Johnsonbaugh - Western Branch (VA) - Shane is a polished prospect in several phases.  He runs 6.9, has some arm strength on the bump, a great defensive firstbaseman, a good defensive outfielder and a sound bat from the left side. He is a very valuable player to any team and brings a lot to the table. He is can hurt you in many ways. He is physically coming into his own and, with that, we expect him to run better and develop plus power. He is really emerging as a prospect!

 

Brandon Lowe - Nansemond River (VA) - Lowe showed some serious leather in his infield work.  The kid can really pick it. Lowe has as good a hands as there is in the business in this class in VA. Lefthanded bat with a nice approach and short swing. He is a gap to gap type hitter with above average speed. You can see Lowe in the Canes North 16's Infield in 2010!
