Top 10 New Mexico HS baseball players in Class of 2024
5. Dylan Archuleta, SS, Rio Rancho
Archuleta’s capabilities were on full display in a game at Cleveland High School late last April.
In a 12-5 extra-innings win, the 6-foot, 190-pound shortstop took to the mound in relief for 4 2/3 frames and struck out 10 challengers. His three-run shot in the top of the eighth inning closed the book on the game’s scoring as the Rams earned a District 1-5A title.
Evidently, Archuleta — an Air Force pledge — was a big part of why Rio Rancho High School ranked first in New Mexico and won the state crown. He had a single and two RBIs in the final, a 9-6 decision over Centennial.
