At the time of his selection, the 6-foot-1, 199-pound senior shortstop had led the Wolves to a 20-8 record this season and a berth in the Division 1, District 9 semifinals. Bonemer batted .435 with seven home runs and 32 runs through 28 games. He swiped 17 bases in 19 attempts and compiled an OPS of 1.387 along with a fielding percentage of .957. A participant in the MLB Prospect Development Pipeline League, he’s the state’s returning Gatorade Player of the Year and is ranked as the nation’s No. 3 prospect in his class by Baseball America.
Bonemer has maintained a 3.83 weighted GPA in the classroom. He has signed a National Letter of Intent to play baseball on scholarship at the University of Virginia this fall, but is projected as an early round selection in July’s Major League Baseball First Year Player Draft.
Bonemer has volunteered locally as a summer youth baseball camp instructor.
