Rocco Iervasi
PBR Florida Director of Operations/Area Scout

This spring we will be highlighting players throughout the state with Uncommitted Spotlights. We will highlight one 2022, 2023, and 2024 player each week looking for a school to call home. The state of Florida is full of uncommitted players who have the talent to play at the next level. These players deserve as much exposure as they can get in order to help them find the right home.

Today, we will highlight 2024 Wil Gregory. Wil is a 5-foot-9, 150 pound middle infielder from Northside Christian School in St. Petersburg, FL. Outside of High School, Wil plays travel ball with MVP Beast. Wil is an athletic player who can play the infield and outfield. He represented Team Florida 14u at the 2020 PBR Jr Future Games. Wil was a standout at the 2021 Sophomore State Games showing an above average arm from the infield and outfield. Wil is a true gamer and can make an impact for a program on and off the field.
