Uncommitted. Listed at a strong-bodied 6-foot-1, 215-pounds, strength in the lower-half. Started behind the plate and hit out of the two-hole for the Hillmen, finishing the day 1-for-3 with an opposite field single and two RBIs. The left-handed hitter has a simple and repeatable load, creating some separation in the hands into footstike, showing mature feel to use the whole field and take the ball where it's pitched with his opposite field single on a fastball that caught the outer-half of the plate. Behind the plate, Pomatto puts his body on the line regularly, blocking balls up to both sides regardless of if anyone is on base, high motor. Arm plays true with carry on throws to second, clean actions out of the chute. Scrappy backstop that has shown well multiple times in front of our staff now.

Uncommitted. 6-foot-1, 215-pound, physical, strong and durable left-handed hitting catcher. Field general, grinder mentality. Caught every inning of a double header on Friday and handled a number of high-level arms with advanced stuff. Willing and able blocker. Also, hit in the two-hole in both games with his best production coming in the night-cap against No. 1 Edwardsville. Launched a two-run double deep into the right-center field gap in his third at-bat of the game. Also, lined a single to left-field in his final at-bat. Finished 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored.

C Zach Pomatto (Joliet Catholic, 2025) has all kinds of physicality in his 6-foot-1, 215-pound frame and it is evident in the box. He has strong hands with an average of 72 mph bat speed and made hard, loud, lifted contact throughout his round. He peaked at 91.9 mph off the bat and his furthest batted ball traveled 340'. He also was one of the top defensive catchers, topping at 81 mph from the crouch with a low pop time of 1.96. Should be a key part of the Hilltopper lineup this spring.
