About
Austin Smith is a right-handed pitcher and first baseman at Episcopal School of Jacksonville in the Class of 2027. His fastball sits 88–91 mph with natural arm-side run and generates consistent ground-ball contact. The pitch is anchored by a spin rate of 2,355–2,450 rpm — in the 99.25th percentile for his class. He complements it with a sharp slider at 79 mph, a changeup at 78 mph, and a curveball, giving him a four-pitch mix and the ability to attack hitters in any count.
Off the field, Austin has distinguished himself as a leader at Episcopal — a 2025 Youth Leadership Jacksonville alum, 2024 Honor and Discipline Council member, and Eagle Ambassador since 2024. He plans to study business and finance, and brings the same preparation to the classroom and weight room that he brings to the mound. Away from baseball, he's most at home offshore fishing, chasing blue marlin, mahi, and wahoo with family and friends. A high-character right-hander with a projectable frame, Austin continues to develop physically and with his secondary arsenal.
