Summer Pence Summer Pence RHP Page County | 2028 #52 Nation VA is a name that may not be loud yet in Virginia’s 2028 class, but her performance profile suggests that is about to change. A right-handed pitcher and utility player for Birmingham Thunderbolts Premier Buzzell-Parker, Pence has already shown she can compete above her age group after spending the fall playing in both the 16U and 18U divisions. Across 25 innings pitched, she allowed just 11 hits while striking out 30 hitters, posting a 1.12 ERA, .880 WHIP, and a .122 opponent batting average. Her ability to limit quality contact against older competition speaks to both her pitch design and her presence in the circle. Pence works in the mid to upper 60s and features an elite rise ball paired with a well-disguised changeup that consistently disrupts timing. She continues to sharpen her command through private pitching lessons, while also dedicating time in the weight room to build strength and speed during the offseason. A 4.2 GPA student and member of the National Junior Honor Society, she brings the same discipline to the classroom that she brings to her development.
