+ '25 OF Connor Osborne (Bloomington South) turned in a solid overall performance, showcasing a well-rounded toolset. Standing at 6-foot, 180 pounds with an athletic frame full of lean strength, Osborne showed off impressive bat strength within a balanced left-handed stroke, reaching a peak exit velocity of 98.2 mph. The swing works with quickness in a tight window and has proven to have success in a game setting. A 6.84 runner - Osborne profiles as a defensive asset in the outfield, a good runner with ample arm strength, reaching 90 mph from the outfield. The toolset is loud and the uncommitted outfielder shouldn't have an issue finding a home at the next level. 

+ '26 RHP/SS Dylan Pearson (Franklin Central) was a pop-up sophomore that emerged as an interesting '26 follow. I liked his bullpen session best, as he filled the zone at 82-85, touching 86 mph with a fastball that reached 16" of arm-side run. His changeup is firm, working at 78-80 mph, and he flashed a slurvey breaking ball at 69-71 mph. The delivery is athletic with controlled intent, and his arm swing is full with quickness to a lower 3/4 slot. There is compact strength within an athletic, 5-foot-11, 180 pound frame and Pearson also showed as one of the better hitters at the event. Setting up in a grounded, balanced stance, Pearson uses a quiet hand load with a controlled forward move before turning the barrel with authority on a slightly uphill plane. Pearson showed bat strength in his batting practice round, reaching a peak exit velocity of 96.5 mph, while flashing above average bat speed. 

+ '27 OF Jackson Burnett (Center Grove) is an interesting '27 follow that stood out during the batting practice portion of the event. Holding upside in an athletic, high-waisted, 5-foot-11, 160 pound frame - Burnett showed a mechanically sound swing, creating stretch at heel-strike and showing well-timed intent. Burnett turns an uphill barrel that works on-plane early in the hitting zone, reaching a peak exit velocity of 91.7 mph, and he is able to create true ball flight to the pull-side.
