REGIS JESUIT 8, MULLEN 3 (3.24)
Quality matchup between to of the top programs in the state loaded with collegiate and professional prospects.
2022, Trevor Moore, RHP, Mullen (Stanford commit) started for Mullen. Moore threw 2 ⅓ innings and gave up 7 earned runs on 8 hits. Moore flashed a FB at 89-92 and a plus CB 74-77. Has shown strong level of consistency in his high school career. Pounds the zone and has repeatable delivery. Composed and competitive on the mound.
2022, Owen Marsh, RHP, Mullen (St. Thomas commit) was impressive against a very offensive Regis Jesuit team. Marsh 3 ⅔ and gave up one hit while facing 12 batters. FB ranged from 86-89 with plus sink and a strong CB at 78-80. Pitched up/down and in/out. Continue to see upward development in refining mechanics and increase in velocity. High ceiling.
2022, Brooks Gerig, RHP, Regis Jesuit (CO School of Mines commit) threw five innings, giving up six hits. FB ranged from 84-87 with great arm side run. 12/6 CB at 76 acts as a great out pitch and he uses it to keep hitters off balance early.

Regis Jesuit’s offense can be explosive. PBR Super 60 player, 2022, Dallas Macias, SS (Oregon State commit) started his year off with a bomb. Macias turned around a 91mph FB to dead centerfield. Macias demonstrates explosive quick and strong hands from both sides of the plate. One of Colorado’s top prospects has continued to improve throughout his HS career.
