The 6-foot-2, 225-pounder is a headliner in LSU's elite 2025 Recruiting Class with the Tigers once again getting a coveted signee to school.

During his junior campaign in the Lone Star State, Serna hit .465 with eight home runs, 35 RBIs and a .851 slugging percentage.

Johnson and Co. continue dominating the recruiting trail with the program now stacking the depth at catcher with Serna set to join Cade Arrambide and Eddie Yamin for playing time in 2025.

“It’s awesome,” Serna said. “Some of my friends I’ve known for a while are playing there. Just seeing them come in and do what they’re doing now, it’s really impressive and it makes me really excited. I’m glad to be a part of the family. I’m proud to be called a Tiger.”
