Saint Louis commit. 6-foot-5, 205-pound long, lanky, lean-limbed athlete. Started in center field in game one of this double-header, toed the rubber to start game two. Stands tall in the box with some knee bend, lead leg lifts slightly as hands drift back. Long left-handed swing with some leverage, barrel stays in the zone. Aggressive with intent to elevate. Flashed above-average raw power, driving two balls deep to center field that weren’t off the barrel. Moved around center field comfortably, showed an average arm pre-game. Worked exclusively from the stretch on the mound, simple leg lift into a tall/fall type delivery, upright posture throughout, maintained direction to target. Arm draws down and back from the glove, finishes from a ¾ slot with some deception and loose arm speed. Fastball sat 83-84, touching 85 mph a few times early on, playing mostly straight, flashing cut. Spun a curveball at 70-71 mph, depth and late downer spin on occasion from a 1/7 plane, landed for strikes. Also threw a more lateral slider in the same velocity band, developing feel. Struck out four batters over six innings of work.
OF/LHP Hank Gomric (Althoff Catholic, 2024) is listed at 6-foot-4, 185-pounds with room to fill out in the coming years. Gomric showed well as a two-way player but it is his upside at the plate that is easy to dream on. The left/left prospect has an easy, loose swing with long-levers that work flat through the zone with a line-drive pull-side approach. Gomric was consistently on the barrel as well, leading the event with a 92.9 mph average exit velocity and his furthest batted ball traveled 357’. He also had the fourth-best average bat speed at the event at 76.3 mph. He is also a long, easy strider in the outfield who ran a 7.31 60 with a max run speed of 18.8 mph. As tall as he is, Gomric showed the ability to repeat his simple tall/fall delivery with a ¾ release. The southpaw worked his fastball up to 78 mph with slight sinking action to set up a tight 1/7 curveball at 67-69 mph and straight change at 69-72 mph.
Positional Profile: OF/LHP
Body: 6-4, 185-pounds. Long, lean frame with room for added strength.
Delivery: Simple delivery, repeats, tall/fall lower-half, remains in-line, front foot lands slightly closed.
Arm Action: LH. Long reach out of the glove into a 3/4 slot.
FB: T78, 77-78 mph. Slight sinking action to the arm-side. T2072, 2026 average rpm.
CB: 67-70 mph. Tight, sharp 1/7 shape. T2211, 1975 average rpm.
CH: 69-72 mph. Mostly straight, maintains arm-speed. T1903, 1767 average rpm.
Hit: LHH. Balanced, slightly crouched setup, short stride. Long levers, flat path, line-drive pull-side approach.
Power: 97 max exit velocity, averaged 92.9 mph. 358’ max distance.
Arm: LH. OF - 81 mph. Long draw, plays out of a short 3/4 window.
Defense: Clean routes, two-hand gather, shuffle to release.
Run: 7.31 runner in the 60.
6-foot-3, 170-pound, long-levered, highly-projectable frame. Left/left prospect, started on the mound in the nightcap for Althoff. Long arm action plays out of a ¾ slot. Fastball sat in the upper-70’s for much of the outing while mixing in a 1/7 breaking ball at 68-69 mph with slurve action. Scattered four hits and two earned runs in five innings of work, while striking out four. Intriguing left-handed bat as well, hitting out of the two-hole. Stays flat and on top of the baseball while creating occasional whip through the zone. Ran a 4.44 down-the-line on a groundout; long-strided runner.
