Congrats boys! @axcessbaseball #TitanNation pic.twitter.com/Ieux8SKIwA — Titans (@TitansBsb) July 12, 2024 Bobby Wescott had a terrific 2024 season for the Plainedge Red Devils. Though he was just a sophomore, he led the way offensively with a .420 batting average, .553 OBP and incredible 1.321 OPS. He compiled 29 hits, six doubles, six triples, four HRs, drove in 29 runs and scored 15 runs. He recently announced his commitment to Stony Brook University. He still has two full seasons of high school remaining, which is certainly bad news for opposing pitchers. His coach Colin Fratrik had the followin...
Nick Frusco Commits to Clemson
Miller Place sophomore LHP Nick Frusco carried a perfect game into the sixth inning and struck out 15 in a 13-0 win over East Hampton pic.twitter.com/Ud2EPCfWSf — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) March 30, 2023 Long Island has long been a hotspot for producing hard-throwing southpaws. This has been true dating back to the 1970s when Neal Heaton was the No. 1 overall pick in the country but chose to attend Miami. It seems every couple years there’s another young stud that garners interest from Power 5 conferences. Next up is Miller Place southpaw Nick Frusco. After initially committing to Rutgers, he de-committed and announced his commitment to Clemson this past week. Frusco has been up to 94 MPH with his fastball and sits in the low 90s. As a sophomore, he led Long Island pitcher...

Previously, we featured Miguel Sime Jr, Matt Cruz, Luke Coats, Michael Gardner, Tyler Scarry. and Kenny Meliere Make sure to check out Eye Q Investigations by clicking here) Body Armor Titans 2026 had a deadly lineup this season and that all began with their leadoff hitter Jaiden Zoller. He put together some video game numbers that would make Rickey Henderson jealous. He batted .484 with a .590 OBP, 1.214 OPS, scored 51 runs and drew 23 walks against just 7 strikeouts. Just as importantly, he committed zero errors in center field. Strong defense up the middle and an OBP-machine at the top of the lineup is a great start to putt...

(This is the third installment of the popular ‘Up Next’ Series in which we highlight the top underclassmen on Long Island. Previously we featured Miguel Sime Jr and Matt Cruz. Make sure you check out Eye Q Investigations by clicking here.) His freshman season in high school hasn’t even begun and already Luke Coats has turned many heads. Early in June, he was named the MVP of Perfect Game’s East Coast Qualifier in which Body Armor went 5-0. In July, he was one of the best performers at the Blue Chip Prospect’s Northeast College Coaches Camp when he was sitting in the low 80s in front of 24 coaches. Then, he went out and won Axcess Baseball’s Home Run Derby by putting on an absolute clinic in the finals with double digit home runs. Not to be outdone, he we...
Up Next Powered by Eye Q Investigations: Nick Frusco
(This is the second installment of the 2022 Up Next Series Powered by Eye Q Investigations, where we highlight the top underclassmen on Long Island. This is a 10-part series. You can read the first one on Miguel Sime Jr. by clicking here. All of these uncommitted players should have a huge impact on their high school teams this season and eventually will be Division-I players). The only thing more coveted than left-handed pitching is flame-throwing left-handed pitchers. We’ve been fortunate on Long Island to have a long list of great ones. While it is certainly early on in the process, Miller Place appears to have a pretty talented one in sophomore southpaw Nick Frusco. He first put himself on our map at our July showcase where he was sitting in the low to mid 80s and touching 85. Th...

Final Score: Titans 9 Diamond Ducks 4 pic.twitter.com/FVP6cguK9c — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) July 12, 2022 The 15U Body Armor Titans used a four-run bottom of the third to help them win their first game in the Blue Chip Prospect Invitational Tournament this afternoon.

To start the inning off, Kameron Tindley laced a double putting a much needed man in scoring position for the Titans. Following a walk, Jack Durso would showcase some excellent two strike hitting as he put a ball ...

He continued that momentum right into the summer season for Body Armor Titans 16u. On a beautiful Saturday morning at the PAL Complex, the right hander worked quickly and efficiently as he struck out 12 batters over 6 innings, allowing just one run on an RBI ground out in the top of the sixth inning. Following the game, Gluck noted that his goal was “just to get some work in and find the zone,” he added that he’s “working with a new catcher and trying to get on the same page with him.” The ...

by Gabe Zoda After the game we spoke to Dalton Rutt after his dominant performance on the mound (3.1IP, 6Ks, 0ER) pic.twitter.com/G443Piw0xp — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) August 6, 2021 Imagine being 15 years old and being able to play baseball at a professional baseball stadium. That is exactly what the Body Armor Titans and Next Level Baseball were able to do while playing in the LI Boys of Summer 15u National Division. They faced off in what was sure to be a good game and when you are in Ducks Stadium, you are guaranteed “Good Times Every Time”. The Body Armor Titans would end up soaring above their competition by winning by the score of 5-1. They would start the scoring early as they scored the first run of the game in the bottom of the 1st. This “quack” attack, or quick at...

by Gabe Zoda Got to speak with Brayden Soutar after the game after his 1-2 1RBI day at the plate and his 6 2/3IP, 4Ks day on the mound. pic.twitter.com/J5dwxR3bpN — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) July 21, 2021 If there was a definition of what a humid summer day feels like, this double header would be exactly it. LI Boys of Summer had some 15u action yesterday between the Body Armor Titans and LIB Vexxum. The first game of the DH they played was close but at the end it would be the Titans taking it by a score of 3-1 but the second game is what was even more exciting and thrilling to watch. That second game would end in a 2-2 tie but without a couple of crucial performances from a couple of players , that tie wouldn’t have happened. After winning the first game, the Body Armor Tita...
