QUICK HITS

+ RHP Owen Glamann (Eisenhower, 2026; KS) was one of the top arms at this event. Stands at a lean 6-foot, 155-pounds with room to add muscle. Produced effortless velocity with a loose, whippy arm motion. Pounded the zone with his fastball at 79-83 mph, topping out at 84 mph. Also showed a curveball at 67-69 mph and a changeup that ranged from 69-72 mph. 

+ RHP/INF Jacob Doty (Maize, 2025; KS) showed upside on both sides of the ball in this event. On the mound Doty has a quick, clean arm action and a fastball that plays at 78-83 mph with more to come given the physical projection in his 5-foot-11, 150-pound frame. With that, Doty also mixed in a changeup and a sharp curveball (-12.5” VB avg.) at 64-67 mph with 2300+ RPM. At the plate Doty also showed a quick, rotational swing with glimpses of pull-side power to go alongside 82 mph across the infield which was one of the top numbers from the event.

+ C/OF Trevor Haws (Chisholm, 2025; OK) was on the barrel throughout his round of BP, with a quick, powerful swing that produced line drives through the middle of the field and a max exit velocity of 90 mph. Additionally, with Haws’ physical, 6-foot-1, 190-pound frame, he launched his furthest ball 346 feet according to Trackman, the farthest in the event. Behind the plate, Haws shined, producing a pop time that was consistently between 1.91 and 2.00 seconds and a top velocity of 75 mph, both of which were among the top marks at the event. 

+ CIF Shane McGuire (Augusta, 2024; KS) Along with that, is as strong as they come with a 6-foot-2, 225-pound frame that produced consistent hard contact at the plate, averaging 86.2 mph per batted ball with a top exit velocity of 91 mph. He also posted a peak bat speed of 82.6 mph and 29.6 Gs of rotational acceleration. McGuire swings a flat barrel that stays through the zone and is able to backspin the baseball to all fields. Defensively, McGuire posted the second highest infield velocity of the event with a 83 mph mark across the diamond while also showing high feel around the bag. 

+ CIF Jace Campbell (Wichita Collegiate, 2024; KS) showed off his offensive skill-set from both sides of the plate in this event. With a strong 6-foot-2, 210-pound frame, Campbell produced the top exit velocity of the day, posting a 91.7 mph mark. His short, inside-out swing drove balls to all fields from both sides of the plate and he showed pull-side power as well. Additionally, Campbell is also a smooth fielder with a loose arm across the diamond.  

+ INF Jarren Hay (Olathe West, 2024; Butler CC) is a player to watch from this event. At 6-foot-4, 205-pounds, Hay put together one of the day’s best BP rounds, finding the barrel consistently with an 88% sweet-spot rate. Hay controls his long levers well for his age with a flat swing that stays through the zone and sprayed line drives gap-to-gap. Hay posted a 91 mph mark across the diamond to lead all fielders and showcased sure-handed actions to pair. Additionally, Hay also ran a 6.97 60, which was the second best time at the event.

+ RHP Brendan Stults (Hays, 2024; KS) pitched at 79-83 mph with his fastball in this event. The 5-foot-11, 190-pound uncommitted senior also spun a curveball that showed downer spin at 68-72 mph and turned over a low spin changeup that played at 72 mph.
