4 Texas A&M baseball players named in Perfect Games’ Top 101 Sophomores list

Four Texas A&M baseball players are named to Perfect Games USA’s Sophomore Top 101 list

On Tuesday morning, Perfect Game USA named Texas A&M Sophomores Gavin Grahovac, Caden Sorrell, Isaac Morton, and Clayton Freshcorn to their Top 101 Sophomores list.

Last season, Grahovac and Sorrell significantly contributed as freshmen during the Aggies’ journey to the College World Series. Grahovac entered with high expectations, and once he settled in, his talent became evident. He earned the 2024 SEC Freshman of the Year title and was recognized as a consensus freshman All-American.

Sorrell was also a highly touted freshman but came on a little later. He became the starting left fielder and made the Freshman All-American team. His emergence gave them more speed in the outfield, resulting in a handful of highlight plays.

Pitchers Morton and Freshcorn will compete for mound time in a stacked bullpen. Both have the tools to get weekend playing time, and we’ll have to wait and see how the rotation will work out under the new pitching coach

The baseball team will start the season on February 14 against Elon at Olsen Field at Blue Bell Park.

RHP Clayton Freshcorn commits to Texas A&M after single season at McLennan in Waco

With the departure of Stopper of the Year, senior LHP Evan Aschenbeck, Freshcorn is a candidate to become closer for Texas A&M next year.

Texas A&M head coach Michael Earley and his coaching staff have been very active in the transfer portal recruiting several Division I prospects but they’ve also found talent at the community college level.

The latest player to commit to the Aggies is freshman right-handed pitcher Clayton Freshcorn, who announced his decision via social media on Sunday night.

“Truly blessed,” Freshcorn stated via X. “Thankful for this opportunity!”

Freshcorn played one year at McLennan Community College in Waco, Texas. He appeared in 16 games for the Highlanders, starting 10 and recording a 4-3 overall record with three saves. Freshcorn totaled 61 innings pitched with a 2.36 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 79 strikeouts.

Standing 6 feet, he was born in Houston. Freshcorn graduated from Waller High School in the Lone Star State where he earned a first team all-district selection.

Following the departure of Stopper of the Year, senior left-hander Evan Aschenbeck, Freshcorn is likely a candidate to become closer for Texas A&M next season.
