RHP Josh Marzec (Lake Zurich, 2025) is an uncommitted name to know from the event. Listed at a durable 6-foot-2, 200-pounds with round shoulders and some strength throughout, the right-hander impressed with a fastball up to 88 mph, sitting mostly 86-87 mph with straight action and some carry through the zone at times. He flashed some feel for a sweeping curveball at 68-69 mph and a shorter 10/4 slider at 71-74 mph to complement his fastball. He also showed above-average feel for a running changeup at 77-79 mph.
