There is still plenty of buzz in the air from the October 14^th Unsigned Senior Showcase at The MAX. With so many high level players in attendance the showcase produced a ton of good numbers up and down the board. We’ve compiled the list of stats and posted it here at the bottom of this page.

Some of the more notables were Bill Hayes (Lemont HS, 2013), Michael DiViesti (Buffalo Grove HS, 2013), Gabriel Dwyer (Niles North HS, 2013), and Evan Regez (Herscher HS, 2013) who all posted sub 2.0 pop times. The event saw plenty of foot speed as well with sixteen players posting sub 7.0 60’s. Stewart Nelson (Lyons Township, 2013) and Mike Farnan (Stagg HS, 2013) led the pack with 60 times under 6.6.

Jeremiah Figueroa put on a rare display in the outfield showing off his arm, sitting at 94-96 mph and staying on line through his target the entire way. The pitchers we saw were literally lighting up the radar gun with 14 pitchers topping out at 85 mph or better, along with a number of projectable lefties. Fremd HS looks like they will have some dominant arms on the mound this year with both Brian Jestice and Jon Escobar topping 90 mph.
