Scotts Hill’s Mason Beers earns All-West Tennessee baseball honor

Mason Beers’ selection to the 2026 Jackson Sun All-West Tennessee high school baseball team put a spotlight on a Scotts Hill program that kept winning games, developing arms and staying relevant deep into the postseason. The junior left-handed pitcher and outfielder helped the Scotts Hill Lions finish 25-15 overall, sweep through district play at 9-0 and advance to the TSSAA Class 2A region tournament.

Beers also was listed among the candidates in the Jackson Sun’s vote for 2026 Jackson-area TSSAA baseball player of the year, a sign that his season carried weight beyond Reagan and Henderson County. Prep Baseball Report lists him as a Class of 2027 player at 6-foot-0 and 160 pounds, with a fastball that has been reported up to 84 mph.

Scotts Hill’s roster for the region tournament included Beers alongside head coach Drake Thompson and assistants Grayson Howard and Clayton Worthey, the staff that guided the Lions through another strong season. The team’s run ended with a postseason loss to Smith County, but the 9-0 district mark showed how thoroughly Scotts Hill controlled its league schedule before turning to tougher regional competition.

The honor also fits into a longer line of success for Scotts Hill baseball. The program won a Class A state championship in 2016, when it beat Knox Grace 8-3 for the school’s first state title, and the current season showed that the program’s standard has not faded. Beers’ recognition gives Scotts Hill another marker of that continuity, with a junior already drawing attention as both a pitcher and an outfielder.

For younger players around Reagan and the surrounding area, Beers’ path shows what the next level of development looks like: earn innings, help your team win district games, and build a profile that stands up against top competition. Scotts Hill’s 25-win season and Beers’ all-West Tennessee nod suggest the Lions are still producing players who can carry the program’s history forward.
