Griffin Carroll OF Highland 2022
Carroll ran a 7.05 and showed arm strength in the outfield with a velocity of 85. Some strength at contact with power in the gaps, exit velocity was 93. Still has projection left to his frame and a chance to grow into more power.

Christopher has an athletic frame that still has projection left to it. He has a crossfire delivery and throws from a lower three-quarters arm slot. Fastball was 82-84 with some late life. Curveball had some armspeed and shape, 11/5 break and was 66-68.

 

Blake Cuddington 1B/RHP Highland 2021 (Virginia Wesleyan)
