Baseball coach Jeff Mauldin knows just how big Sunday can be for his Hewitt-Trussville baseball program.

A pair of his former players, Steele Hall and Riley Quick, are expected to be selected in the early rounds of the 2025 MLB Draft.

“It’s pretty awesome for our school, pretty awesome for our community,” he said. “Obviously, it’s awesome for our program.”

Hall, Alabama’s 2025 Mr. Baseball, is expected to be a first-round pick. Quick, Mr. Baseball in 2022, will likely be selected a few minutes later. ESPN’s mock draft has the Texas Rangers picking Hall at No. 12 overall and the Kansas City Royals taking Quick at No. 61.

Both Hall and Quick will have separate watch parties within walking distance of each other at the Trussville Entertainment District.

“I was talking to (Hewitt assistant) coach (Carter) Pharis earlier today about this year as far as our program at the next level,” Mauldin said. “(Former Husky) Tyler Tolbert made his major league debut with the Royals a few weeks ago. Now, it looks like Steele and Riley will be drafted on the first day. It’s been a pretty good stretch.”

Hall, a Tennessee signee, hit .484 for Hewitt-Trussville this season with 8 homers, 14 doubles, 35 RBIs and 46 runs scored. He was named Mr. Baseball by the Alabama Sports Writers Association in June.

“Steele possesses skill sets that honestly we’ve never seen before in a 17-year-old kid as far as the twitchiness of his game, the athleticism, the speed, the power, arm strength,” Mauldin said. “Also, earlier this year, he was doing some things mentally that we had never seen. God has truly blessed him. When you talk about a 5-tool player, Steele is probably actually a 6-tool player if you add the mental part of it.”

Quick, a 6-foot-6 right-handed pitcher, went 8-3 for the Crimson Tide in 2025 with a 3.92 ERA in 14 starts. He struck out 70 batters in 62 innings. As a senior at Hewitt-Trussville in 2022, Quick went 13-1 with a 0.92 ERA in 82.2 innings pitched.

“Riley is really in the same category as Steele just in a different position,” Mauldin said. “You can’t compare a pitcher and a position player, but if Riley stays healthy and does everything he is supposed to do he should be in the big leagues soon. Some scouts have told us he could be in the big leagues in the next year to two years. They both have the passion and love to work for it and the desire to be the best they can be.

“It’s going to be a special day. We are proud of both of them.”

Mauldin said he is going to enjoy the moment with his players and then get back to work.

“I think I’ve been a head coach for 26 years and never had this happen before, so we are going to enjoy it and, on our side, try to keep doing what we’ve been doing and develop players to be the best we can and, God-willing, they can go on to college or play professionally or whatever with us being a small part of that developmental piece,” he said.
