Career

Flukey attended Egg Harbor Township High School in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey, where he played baseball. As a junior in 2022, he pitched to a 5-2 record, a 3.10 ERA, and 63 strikeouts.[1] In 2023, his senior season, he posted a 6-2 record, a 0.45 ERA, and 83 strikeouts.[2] He also hit .253 with 15 RBI.[3] Flukey was considered a top high school prospect for 2023 Major League Baseball draft and was invited and attended the 2023 MLB Draft Combine.[4] However, Flukey went unselected in the draft and thus enrolled at Coastal Carolina University to play college baseball with the Chanticleers.

As a freshman for Coastal Carolina in 2024, Flukey appeared in 19 games (making ten starts) and went 3-3 with a 5.73 ERA and 83 strikeouts over 55 innings.[5] As a sophomore, he moved into the team's starting rotation full-time, helping lead them to the 2025 Men's College World Series.[6] Flukey made 18 appearances (17 starts) and pitched to an 8-2 record, a 3.19 ERA, and 118 strikeouts over 101+23 innings.[7][8] Across four postseason appearances, he posted a 3.27 ERA and 25 strikeouts over 22 innings.[9] Flukey opened the 2026 season considered a top prospect for the upcoming MLB draft.[10] After making his season debut, Flukey was scratched from his next scheduled start before it was announced he would be sidelined with a stress reaction in his rib cage.[11]
