Freshman lefty flashes ace upside for Western Carolina
In the 2026 season, Evan Myers emerged as one of Western Carolina’s best rookie arms, finishing 6-1 and earning SoCon All-Freshman honors after being expected to help stabilize the weekend rotation. His profile is built on strike-throwing confidence, a heavy workload-minded starter’s frame, and a track record that screams competitiveness: he was a three-time all-conference prep pitcher with 186 strikeouts in high school, and his senior-year injury makes his early college success even more notable. He looks like a strong fit for teams wanting a tough, left-handed starter with projection and poise.
