Carson Quillen from Greeneville High School class 3A. He was a finalist last year but lost to Eli Huddleston from Upperman. He beat Eli in a 1-0 pitchers duel in the state title game just a few days after losing the award. Definitely the front runner for it this year

I don’t know he was just a Sophmore last year. He has to be the front runner. Cayden Shanks from Upperman will probably be in the conversation as well.  Is Quillen committed as a pitcher?

He is committed as a 3B or Catcher. (Can really play anywhere with how athletic he is)  He plays SS for Greeneville when he isn't pitching and plays for Caines National for travel ball.  Won Prep Baseball Player of the week for week one batting .538 (14-26) with 7 doubles, 1 home run, 7 runs batted in, and scoring 9 times. He would make two appearances on the mound during this stint, going 1-0, with 1 save.  He would allow 0 hits, 1 walk, and 11 strikeouts in his 6.1 innings of work.
