Austin Wiegand, OF, Eureka (IL), 2023 Uncommitted. An All-Region player for Carl Sandburg CC in 2024, now at John A. Logan, Wiegand is a high ceiling and athletic name-to-know for 2025. The left/left centerfielder stands at a strong 5-foot-10, 175 pounds with real feel to hit. Wiegand has feel for the barrel that has played in game for our staff, a low effort operation through contact taking a direct path to the baseball with extension past contact. Strong at the point of contact and able to leverage the baseball in the air and showed feel to use the whole field. Defensively in the outfield, Wiegand has in-game speed and takes natural and athletic routes to the baseball with a strong and accurate arm that has been up to 92 mph from the outfield. Wiegand is a high-ceiling prospect with present skills that can translate at a high-level and should be a sought after player for the Volunteers.
