A promising future
Kylie Salisbury, a senior at Gibraltar Carlson High School in Michigan, has officially signed a national letter of intent to join the baseball program at Henry Ford College.
Salisbury arrives with a standout track record: he was named a first‑team all‑News‑Herald honoree for 2025 and helped his high school team to 23 victories this spring, while posting a .400 batting average and a .482 on‑base percentage.
Beyond the diamond, the multi‑sport athlete has excelled on the tennis courts, compiling 50 varsity singles wins and reaching a career‑best 21 victories during his junior year.
Coaches at Henry Ford College say his blend of power hitting and competitive experience should make an immediate impact, and they look forward to seeing how his tennis discipline translates to the baseball field.
The commitment underscores a growing pipeline of talent from Michigan’s high schools into the college ranks, and Salisbury’s pledge is being celebrated by teammates, coaches, and local supporters.
