Four members of the signing class __ Jones, McClain, McLeod, and Stevens __ are from the Baltimore or Randallstown, Maryland areas, where they all played summer baseball together for Visions Select, a program founded to rejuvenate interest in baseball for Black kids in the Baltimore area, all while preparing the players for success on the field and in life.
 
Jones, McClain, and McLeod all played their prep years at Baltimore Polytechnic Institute, while Stevens played his high school ball at Randallstown High School. All four prospects earned All-City and All-County recognition while winning regional championships and helping establish Randallstown and Poly as successful programs in the Baltimore area.
 
Two prospects hail from the state of Georgia in Jack Defoor (Atlanta) and Samarion Ward (Lithonia). Defoor totaled 33 hits, including nine doubles, five triples, and two home runs to go along with 30 stolen bases as a senior at Maynard Jackson High School, while Ward is coming to the program off a very successful season with the Georgia Premier Academy and primarily plays catcher and outfield.

Evans joins the program after a year at Wallace CC-Selma, where he played in 49 games and averaged .264 at the plate. The Tuscaloosa native also was responsible for 32 hits, 22 runs, 18 runs batted in and 16 stolen bases last season. Peterman is the lone addition from Florida, as the 6-2 pitcher and infielder played his prep ball at Dwyer High School in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
