My son just graduated HS class of 2017. He ended his Varsity Senior year with a .444 BA (2nd on the team). The kid who was 1rst(.448) got a baseball scholarship to a Div. III school next year and I think my son is just as good as he is, truthfully.
My son is 6'0 162lbs. He is a versatile player that has played all the positions. But his main position is Catcher. He rarely allows a passed ball, & has very quick feet. His throwing arm is slightly above average. He is very fast and runs the bases well. Hitting, he can hit to all fields and can hit anybody's fastball. He rarely strikes out. His coach says that he is good enough to play JUCO ball right now, but I don't know. We have not measured his pop time, or any other measurements.
He has graduated early as he won't turn 18 until late September (academically he finished early) however he only got a 22 on his ACT both times he took it.
Should he just find a few JUCO schools nearby and tryout and see what happens. Even JUCO schools not in our district?
What do you think?
