“Throughout the week (of training camp), our coaching staff and task force were consistently impressed by the players’ maturity, focus and high-level performance,” said Ben Kelley, 15U National team program director. “Finalizing the roster was no easy task, but we’re confident that this group represents the best of what USA Baseball stands for: talent, character and a team-first mentality. We’re looking forward to competing on the international stage and are fully committed to bringing a gold medal home to the United States.”

The 15U National team will be on the hunt for its seventh gold medal since the program began in 2012. The program went 8-1 and grabbed gold at the 2022 WBSC 15U Baseball World Cup held in Hermosillo, Mexico.

The roster includes six players from the 2022 12U National team – Colin Anderson, Anthony Frausto, Tristin Gaines, Levi Kerr, Mateo Mier and Trent O’Malley – that captured gold at the WBSC 12U Baseball World Cup.

Casey Scott will manage the 15U national program. He was previously the program’s pitching coach the last two years.

Before the squad travels to Mexico, they will train in El Paso, Texas from Sept. 8-12.
