The following student-athletes have been selected to The Washington Post’s 2024 All-Met team for baseball:
Aiden Dubetsky, utility, Sr., Georgetown Prep
The two-way star stood at the forefront of Georgetown Prep’s campaign as its ace and one of its most dangerous hitters. At the plate, the Amherst College signee hit .406 with a 1.200 OPS, striking out just twice in more than 100 at-bats. He was even more of a force on the mound, where he went 9-1, his only loss coming in a game in which he didn’t allow an earned run. His ERA in Interstate Athletic Conference play was 0.55, and he culminated his decorated Hoyas career in fittingly dominant fashion by spinning a no-hitter to clinch the IAC title.
Sammy Berman, utility, Jr., Whitman
Despite missing six games because of an injury, Berman was pivotal in leading Whitman to its first state final appearance. The shortstop hit .490 with 10 extra-base hits and provided a reliably effective presence on the mound.
Griffin Burkholder, OF, Sr., Freedom (South Riding)
The area’s top draft prospect, Burkholder hit .453 and drove in 21 runs, helping Freedom to its third straight region title. Possessing a rare combination of speed, athleticism and power — half of his hits went for extra bases — Burkholder put immense pressure on opposing defenses and skillfully patrolled center field.
Jamie Laskofski, IF, Sr., Lake Braddock
The Occoquan Region player of the year set the table for Lake Braddock as its leadoff hitter and shortstop. The William & Mary commit hit .483 with a 1.335 OPS, also drawing 25 walks — many of which were intentional.
Jackson Loomis, IF, Jr., Jackson-Reed
The shortstop was named the D.C. Interscholastic Athletic Association player of the year after hitting .518 with six home runs, 46 RBI and 24 stolen bases, and he led the Tigers to the state championship.
Sean McCabe, P, Jr., St. John’s
The College of Charleston commit was named the D.C. Gatorade Player of the Year. Usually taking the ball against the Cadets’ most imposing opposition, he went 7-2, compiling a 0.59 ERA and .115 batting average against.
James Nunnallee, C, Sr., Lightridge
Nunnallee was a force for the Lightning, earning Class 5 Region D player of the year honors. Hitting from the left side, the Virginia commit posted a .474 batting average, struck out just once and stole 23 bases.
Jackson Sirois, IF, Sr., Paul VI
The Virginia-bound shortstop was the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference player of the year. He hit .433 with a 1.270 OPS, setting single-season school records with 13 doubles and 39 RBI for the regular season conference champions.
Hunter St Denis, utility, Jr., Magruder
St Denis’ campaign was the best statistical season in Magruder history. At the plate, he broke program records for hits (35) and walks (22), hitting .538 with five home runs and 25 RBI. And as the Colonels’ ace, he set the Magruder ERA record (0.79), with his last appearance being a shutout in the state semifinals.
Cayden Suchy, utility, Sr., Dominion
Suchy, who signed with Connecticut, was dominant in every facet of the game. In just over 60 innings, he struck out 115 and allowed just six earned runs, throwing two no-hitters. At the plate, he hit .438 with 12 extra-base hits.
Noah Toole, utility, Sr., Oakton
A three-sport varsity athlete (he also played football and basketball), Toole did it all for the Cougars on the diamond, earning Concorde District player of the year honors. An elite defensive shortstop, he hit .379 with an OPS over 1.000 and was also a shutdown pitcher, posting a 0.37 ERA in 19 innings.
Myles Upchurch, utility, Jr., St. Albans
Upchurch, who is committed to Alabama, was again lights-out for the Bulldogs. His pitching numbers were gaudy — in 55⅔ innings, he recorded an ERA of 0.88 and struck out 82. At the plate, he hit .308.
Paul Witkop, utility, Sr., Potomac School
On the mound, Witkop had a 6-1 record and 1.82 ERA. The Richmond commit’s offensive numbers were impressive, too: a .473 batting average, a 1.262 OPS, four home runs and 35 RBI.
Jake Yeager, P, Sr., Archbishop Spalding
The Gatorade Player of the Year in Maryland, Yeager had an ERA of 1.25 and WHIP of 0.89 in 56 innings, fooling hitters into 84 strikeouts and posting a .138 average against. He is signed to play at Maryland.
Henry Zatkowski, utility, Sr., River Hill
Zatkowski, a future Duke Blue Devil, allowed just one earned run in 40⅔ innings, amounting to a hard-to-believe 0.17 ERA; he also hit .417 with a 1.100 OPS. He ended the year having thrown 27⅔ consecutive scoreless playoff innings, wrapping up his career with an eight-inning, region championship-securing shutout.
When Creighton took the reins in 2021, he assessed the program and told his team it would win a state championship within three years. That vision was realized this spring. A well-rounded group with star power, the Colonels marched to their first state title, earning the Maryland Class 3A crown with a 4-0 win over Chesapeake. After a slow start, they ended the season as one of the hottest teams in the area, victorious in all but two of their final 22 games to finish 20-5.
