CLINTON, MS - The Mississippi Senior Games was held on Sunday, September 29th at Clinton High School in Clinton, MS. This event was an open event that consisted of some of the top uncommitted prospects from the 2025 class across the state. These players went through extended pro-style workout that included batting practice using Trackman, and much more. Pitchers were able to throw during game play and were able to get numbers and metrics via TrackMan. There were some players who showed up and continued to build off of prior performances, but there were also some new names who jumped onto our radar with a strong showing at the event.
Continuing our post-event coverage for this event, we take a look at some of the standouts from the Mississippi Senior Games. Below, you can find data, stats and more on uncommitted RHP Wilkes Johnson.
