North Texas’ baseball hotbed of talent has another class already blossoming.
Several are already well established after standout freshman seasons at varsity programs. Plano West’s Ryan Ford led the Wolves through the Class 5A playoffs. Right-handed pitcher Zach Lee and hard-hitting shortstop Matt Lipka guided McKinney through the playoffs before losing in the quarterfinals to eventual Class 4A state finalist Mesquite Poteet. Rockwall Heath's Drew Benefield was his district Newcome of the Year.
Making Rockwall Heath competitive as a first-year program was hard-throwing right-hander Drew Benefield, a longstanding member of Rockwall-based Texas Sports. Plano East’s Conner Zmolack, whose brother is former East start Wes Bankston, is a standout for the Dallas Mustangs.
