Class of 2024 baseball star commits to USC
La Jolla Country Day High School prep star Will Stickney has committed to USC baseball.
Why is this particular recruitment notable? Stickney, from San Diego, was the best available in-state recruit on the board. Not one of the best. Not one of many moderately good or notably strong recruits, but the No. 1 recruit in the Golden State.
The class of 2024 infielder who plays second base, shortstop, and third base is a sophomore and one of the top 50 players in the 2024 class. Most of all, he is the best 2024 recruit in the state of California. That’s the kind of recruit USC needed to jump-start a decorated baseball program which has fallen on very tough times this past decade.
The Trojans really needed a lift.
This is definitely a lift.

Stickney’s fielding percentage is .833. He also collected 23 RBI, 10 stolen bases, and added a .361 batting average in his most recent season of high-school baseball.
Be on the lookout for Stickney over the next few years, before he becomes a Trojan baseball star.
