Wednesday, four members of the Kingsmen Baseball Academy officially signed their letters of intent to play college baseball for the 2027-28 school year.
The group of four includes three returning Kingsmen from the 2025-26 season.
Starting things off, middle infielder Logan Daniel has signed with D-III William Peace University.
Daniel signs with the Pacers of William Peace University.
Daniel, a second-year Kingsmen, joined the Kingsmen last year from Rolesville, North Carolina. Daniel spent the majority of last season as the starting shortstop for the KBA’s varsity team.
Second, catcher Cooper Diehl has signed with D-II Newberry College.
Diehl signs with the Wolves of Newberry College.
Diehl, a first-year member of the KBA, hails from Tega Cay, South Carolina. He’ll be sticking around in the Palmetto State after signing with Newberry.
Next, outfielder Caiden McNeil has signed with D-I Norfolk State University.
McNeil signs with the Spartans of Norfolk State University.
McNeil, a second-year Kingsmen, is from Whitsett, North Carolina. The Spring 2026 season saw Caiden float between the varsity and prospect teams, playing both left field and centerfield. He was also a member of the 2026 Kingsmen Baseball Summer Collegiate team.
Finally, middle infielder Montgomery Hart has signed with D-I Old Dominion University.
Hart signs with the Monarchs of Old Dominion University.
Hart, another returner to the KBA, is a Warren, Ohio native. Hart spent last spring as the starting shortstop for the Kingsmen’s prospect team. He ranked second in on-base percentage in the 2026 season.
The team celebrated signing day with a special ceremony commemorating the occasion for the players involved.
The Kingsmen Baseball Academy is immensely proud of the players who signed Wednesday, and can’t wait to see who else on the 2026-27 roster joins them!
