Unsigned Senior Showcase Flashback: OF/SS Collin Fantaskey
August 29, 2014
By Greg Williams
WV Director of Scouting
Collin Fantaskey (Warren Area HS, PA) is a 6-foot-2, 170-pound right-handed hitter that displayed the athleticism and physical size to be a productive offensive performer at the next level. The long strider flashed an all-around skill set that led to him signing with Mercyhurst University a month later. Fantaskey turned in a blazing 3.94 home-to-1B time and showcased a strong arm at 86 mph. Fantaskey is still developing his swing, but showcased the potential for some gap power with a bat exit velocity of 91 mph.
The 2014 Unsigned Senior Showcase will take place on October 18 at B2B Baseball Academy in Manheim, PA. This event continues to grow in popularity and in its ability to help match available seniors with college programs that have needs. Over the past two years 26 of 38 prospects have gone on to make college commitments with several others attempting to walk on and make college rosters this fall.
As the roster begins to fill for this year's event we will spotlight each of the prospects scheduled to participate in advance of October 18.
