Tennessee baseball commit wins Mr. Baseball award
2026 Tennessee baseball commit Mikee Teasley was named Class 4A Mr. Baseball by the Tennessee Baseball Coaches Association on Tuesday.
The junior pitcher and third baseman is from Oak Ridge High School in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. He led the Wildcats to the Class 4A state tournament for a second consecutive season. Teasley also earned District 3-4A Player of the Year honors by the league's coaches following the 2025 regular season.
Teasley committed to the Vols and head coach Tony Vitello on Oct. 20, 2024.
Oak Ridge was slated to open tournament play Tuesday against Clarksville at Oakland High School in Murfreesboro, Tennessee on Tuesday, but the game was postponed due to inclement weather. The first-round game will now be contested Wednesday with first pitch slated for 7:30 p.m. EDT.
Oak Ridge (34-7) set a school record for wins this season, eclipsing last year's total of 28. The Wildcats won both the District 3-4A regular-season title and postseason tournament championship.
Teasley entered state tournament play with a .391 batting average. He has totaled seven home runs, 33 RBIs and 12 doubles.
Teasley (8-1) has recorded a 1.16 ERA and 113 strikeouts as a pitcher.
