Background: Benjamin Elijah Mays High School, located in Atlanta Georgia, has churned out an impressive collection of athletes and celebrities throughout the years, including: NBA shooting guard / small forward Gerald Wilkins, NFL players Tyrell Adams, Natrez Patrick and Reggie Wilkes, former Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens, and – easily the most famous – singer / actress Rozonda Thomas, a.k.a. Chili from TLC.
Middle infielder Termarr Johnson has developed into the best baseball player to come from the school’s hallowed halls.
A mighty mite that’s well known on the baseball circuits, the 5-foot-10, 175-pound lefty-swinging infielder has already put together an impressive resume: he slugged a scorching .375/.483/.542 with a trio of extra-base knocks on Team USA’s U15 Gold Medal-winning squad in 2019. Two years later he finished third at the All-Star High School Homerun Derby, trailing only Jared Jones (committed to LSU) and Sal Stewart (committed to Vanderbilt).
Johnson, who committed to Arizona State University, led Benjamin Elijah Mays to the state playoffs – though they fell to North Oconee in the first round.
Scouting Report: Advanced approach at the plate, well beyond his years. Johnson combines a patient approach with tremendous bat-to-ball skills, and the potential to slug 25 homeruns in the professional ranks. He’s the most well-rounded high school bat I’ve seen since writing about prep prospects. Silky smooth swing, strong wrists just flick the ball around the diamond. Average speed and arm, but he moves well with plus agility and a quick release to compensate. He’s tabbed to slide over to second base. There’s a little bit of Joe Morgan in Johnson, though minus the speed.
Ceiling: 7.0-win player
Risk: Moderate
Grade: First Round
