Yale Johnson

Blessed to announce my commitment to play Division 1 Baseball at the University of Northern Colorado. I would like to thank my coaches, my teammates, and my family who have all helped me get to this point. I would also like to thank the UNC coaching staff for believing in me.

My son and his friends fell in love with Sun Devil hoops because of Bobby Hurley

‘26 RHP/UTL Maddox Burnett (Erie) FB: 92-93 T94 🔥 (~2250) CB: 75-77 (~2300) CT: 86-87 (~2300) 4IP, 8Ks, 1H, 1BB here 👇 Plenty of natural arm talent with an actively developing arsenal, didn’t give hitters much of a chance today CO’s #4 ranked 2026 prospect, 2024 Future Games alum 🌟 @BYUBaseball recruit @maddox_burnett4 | @ShooterHunt

27’ OF Taylor Dodd (Casteel) The always scrappy #uncommitted switch hitter went 2-4 with a walk. Mature approach at the plate with quality ABs has proved to be a tough out. While tallying a stolen base. Dodd was a big factor in the win @taydodd27 // @PB_Uncommitted #beseen #prepbaseball #prepbaseballaz

Powerful: Moe Odum on how much Bobby Hurley means to him. "He is the greatest coach that's ever coached me. I'm going to war with him anytime. If I had more eligibility, I wouldn't go no where. Without Hurley, there's no us." @DevilsDigest

Tyler Houston ('26 CO) and Yale Johnson ('26 AZ) combined for an inning-ending strike-em-out, throw-em-out. Houston (Cal State Northridge commit) produced a K with an 89 MPH heater, and Johnson (Northern Colorado commit) back-picked a runner off third to escape a jam.

‘26 Aaron Jaquez (CO) was efficient over two frames with 5 K’s & 66% strikes. Up to 90-mph & works a CH down in zone @ 81, big depth to mid 70’s SL. Physical & strong build. #WWBAWorlds @PG_FourCorners #UNC commit

Pat Murphy’s son, Austin, was asked why he believes in the Brewers: “Well, the guys respond back really good. Started the season 0-4. Those games were not good. But then they responded with the best record in baseball. So I believe they can do it.”

Maddox Burnett (‘26, CO) living 92-93 T94 mph in his first inning of work. Spins above 2300 RPMs w/ 17-20” IVB. Hard downer CB at 78 mph w/ 2500+ spin. CT at 86 mph w/ short lateral movement. CH in the mix as well. #BYU commit. @PG_FourCorners @Slammersbasball #WWBAWorlds

Yale Johnson (‘26, AZ) stays on time for this 94 mph FB & jumps it. Hammered it working PS w/ good strength off it. Hammered it into LCF and hustled out a double. #NorthernColorado commit. 96EV @PG_FourCorners @Slammersbasball #WWBAWorlds

‘27 OF Taylor Dodd (AZ) barrels this one through the right side for a hard hit single (91 EV). Creates separation & has whippy hands, gamer profile. @PG_Uncommitted. #WWBAWorlds @PG_FourCorners

‘26 Yale Johnson (AZ) pokes this through the right side & plates a run. Physical 5’10/185 with strength in the hands, creates some length with extension out front. #WWBAWorlds @PG_FourCorners #NorthernColorado commit
