Grand Oaks' Houston Tomlinson
FULL HOUSE: The elite college recruits of H-Town baseball; photo gallery
From aces to clubs, Houston is loaded with diamonds on baseball fields across the city.
Last year, a pair of Atascocita players were drafted in the first round of the Major League Baseball draft -- Bryce Matthews (Nebraska) went 28th overall, and Kendall George went 36th overall.
The Woodlands' Drew Romo went in the first round of 2020, while Cypress Ranch's Colton Cowser (Sam Houston State) was the fifth overall pick in 2021, along with former teammate Ty Madden (Texas) going 23rd in the first round.
So, who are the next big things coming out of the Bayou City?
Here they are.

The stars of 2023-24 Lutheran South Baseball
BASES LOADED: No. 5 Lutheran South in prime contention for a TAPPS run
No. 5 -- Lutheran South Pioneers
2023: 14-7 (District Champions)
In a word... loaded. Coach Aaron Schneider’s 2024 Pioneers are an embarrassment of riches.
Let’s start behind the plate. One of the nation’s top junior catchers Omar Serna, who is committed to LSU, has transferred from Dobie to bolster an already talented lineup.
He joins junior third baseman Victor Coronado, who can crush the ball at the plate. Coronado and slick-fielding sophomore shortstop Marcus Cantu are both committed to the University of Texas.
Jaylen Walker will patrol the outfield, while senior Roland Aquillon will be the ace on the mound.
Keep in mind, LSA has won state four times in the past nine seasons, their last coming in 2021. So, the Pioneers are due.
