This years East squad is comprised of mostly Central Florida players but has a few sprinkled in from the south Florida area in power hitting OF Daniel Reyes (Mater Academy) who has signed with Florida and slick fielding SS Matt Mika (Park Vista) who is a gamer type guy that plays way above his size and is a UCF commit. Both guys could be drafted in June.

Two of the purest hitters on the East are Jackson Lueck, a catcher from Orangewood Christian and FSU recruit, along with infielder Deacon Liput, a Florida signee from Oviedo HS.

OF Chris Chatfield (Spoto HS) who has signed with USF is one of the most athletic guys with the most upside on this squad. He is expected to be a pretty good draft in June as well. 1B Tyrone Perry from Lakeland HS probably has some of the biggest power from the left side of anybody here this weekend. The Florida State signee is also expected to be a draft in June.  

The pitching is lead by LHP Juan Hillman from Olympia HS. A UCF commit who has been up to 93 mph this spring and is expected to be a high draft. RHP Ryan Mckay (Satellite HS) has also seen his fastball up to 93 mph this spring and is a High Point commit. Jared Middleton, an LHP from George Jenkins HS has one of the best left-handed curveballs in Sebring this weekend. He has signed with Florida State and had a great spring as well.

RHP Michael Byrne (Olympia HS), who wrapped up his high school career with 29 wins under his belt, is a right-hander with pitchability who has signed with Florida.
