1B Cal Hanson (Grayslake Central) was one of the biggest winners from the event. The 6-foot-3, 180-pound, long-levered, projectable, left-handed hitter stood out offensively. He took consistent, intentful swings while leading the event in bat and hand speed; averaging 23 mph hand speed and 71.8 mph bat speed. It's a loose, athletic swing that features all kinds of upside and was all over the barrel throughout. He peaked at 98.1 mph off the bat and sent his furthest batted ball ‘322 despite working mostly line-drives to both gaps. Hanson also ran a 7.39 60 and was 80 mph across the infield from first base. Hanson is an uncommitted left-handed bat to know in the 2025 class.
1B Cal Hanson (Grayslake Central, 2025) is another left-handed hitter with a high ceiling from Sunday’s event. Listed at a wiry 6-foot-3, 180-pounds, Hanson has a lean/athletic build that still holds room for added development in the future. At the plate, Hanson showed some rhythm in his hands, rocking them back in-stride before firing through with an uphill path, displaying intent to lift to his pull-side with loose hands through the zone, reaching up to 91.8 mph for his max EV. Defensively, Hanson has fluid and smooth actions with comfortable footwork around the bag.
