Gulf Breeze High School student, 2026 graduate, and standout athlete Presley Moseley has signed a Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) agreement with Autumn Beck Blackledge PLLC, a local law firm.

Why this matters: This partnership marks a significant milestone in supporting local talent. It is one of the first NIL contracts involving a high school athlete in Florida since the recent changes in NIL legislation.

“We are thrilled to partner with Presley Moseley, a remarkable young student-athlete whose dedication and spirit truly align with our firm’s values,” said Autumn Beck Blackledge. “This collaboration is not just about promoting our services and our goal to support healthy families; it’s about investing in the potential of young individuals in our community and supporting their growth.”

The future is bright for Moseley, who stands at 6’3 and weighs in at 210 lbs. His primary positions are
pitcher, first base, and third base. Moseley has been awarded countless All-Tournament Teams, Tournament MVPs, and Tournament Pitcher MVPs. Perfect Game named Presley Pre-Season All-American for 2024. Presley has twice been named to Team Florida by Prep Baseball Report (PBR) and is likely to be named again for the summer of 2024. PBR
has ranked Presley as high as the 3rd best Third baseman, the 5th best First basemen, and 5th best Right-
Handed Pitcher in Florida.

Off the field, Moseley volunteers at Miracle League, is a member of Fellowship of Christian Athletes, maintains a cumulative GPA of 3.86, and has been on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic, spreading the gospel and teaching baseball to the underserved. He volunteers at Tim Tebow’s Night to Shine and the Special Olympics, where his sister has been a long-time participant.

“Presley is very committed to the projects that he’s doing. He believes in them,” Blackledge said. “All the things he does outside of baseball are very personal to him.”

Autumn Beck Blackledge PLLC practices family law. She said, “Healthy families are the cornerstone of a community and in every case I take that involves children, it’s always kid first. I think that people look at us as a leader and putting out the messages of what’s healthy and what’s good. Presley will help us get some of that messaging that’s so important to kids his age.”
