Pocono Mountains Baseball Club

PROFILE:

Rhett Whitesell (Northwest Area) is a versatile player who has been obsessed with the game since birth. He plays all over the diamond and he will get to try nearly every position for us to find the one that fits him the most.

Rhett was a 3x All Star in Little League, striking out over 100 batters in his time in the Major division. That has translated to him being the trusted arm for the Northwest Junior High team this spring.

Besides baseball, Rhett plays basketball at Northwest, and is an avid outdoorsman who loves to hunt and fish.

We're extremely excited to have Rhett and his family!

PROFILE:
Derek Reyes (MMI Prep) joins Pocono Mountains Baseball Club as an exciting young infielder with a lot of upside.

At 13 years old, Derek is making the jump into bigger school/travel baseball, and we believe his best days are ahead of him. He brings athletic tools, natural ability, and real juice in the bat — but what stands out most is his work ethic. Derek shows up to every practice ready to work, competes hard, and is always asking for more.

As he continues to gain experience and sharpen his fundamentals, we’re excited to help him grow into the player we believe he can become.

PROFILE:
Our little guy had picture day for tee-ball at White Haven LL this morning, so we felt the profile treatment was in order for the little cub.
When B is not racing and stealing the ball from his teammates at tee-ball, he loves his mom, Mimi,bPeepaw, annoying Jaxon, and tolerating dad. B loves Bluey, Paw Patrol, his Monster Trucks, dinosaurs, and napping in the car.

PROFILE:
Bryce Graham is another 3 sport star from (Crestwood), when not scoring goals at soccer in the fall, or draining 3's on the court in the winter, you'll find him at the keystone position on the diamond for the Comets. Bryce was a 2x All Star at Mountaintop Little League. Bryce is a good athlete who makes all of the plays, and will do anything asked of him. While we only get him a few times this summer, we're very excited to have him and his awesome family, with the hopes of more weekends in the future!

PROFILE:
Che Merwarth (Pocono Mountain West) is a dedicated team player and a rock behind the plate who brings leadership, focus, and consistency to the field. Che’s strong game awareness, communication skills, and work ethic make him a reliable presence and a great teammate overall. When he’s not making plays, he’s hitting the books as a member of the National Junior Honor Society. Reflecting his dedication to academics, leadership, and character, Che truly represents what it means to be a well-rounded student-athlete. We are very excited to welcome him and his family full-time into the program.

PROFILE:
Colton Park (Northwest) is a versatile utility player/catcher who brings value to the program in a number of ways. A 4-time Little League All-Star, Colton is highlighted by his exceptional bat-to-ball skills, striking out just once during the entire 2025 season. His compact swing, ability to put the ball in play, and team-first approach make him a great fit in an offense built on pressure and movement.

Defensively, Colton’s versatility and willingness to play wherever needed will be a major asset this season. He and his family are excited to embrace a greater challenge beyond school baseball, and we’re proud to have him with us full-time.
