C/3B Quade Thompson (Wrightstown, 2024) attracted attention at the PBRT Wisconsin Open in late June and has had his name rise as an uncommitted catcher in the 2024 class. Thompson turned in a smooth defensive display behind the dish and showed athletic ability and movement patterns. Listed at 5-foot-11, 190 pounds, Thompson presents an athletic build that works in a larger frame with clear strength in his lower half. The incoming senior showcased a loose rhythm with the bat in his hands and stayed long through the zone during his round of BP. With a wide, open setup, Thompson recorded a maximum exit velocity of 95.1 mph and consistently back-spun the ball while working middle-in.

Thompson, who was mentioned previously within this Quick Hits piece, was back to his run-producing ways on Monday, driving in two runs with a single to guide The Tourists to a 12-5 Semifinal win. The to-be senior followed that up with a two-run home run in the championship game, sparking an early comeback by smashing a pitch to left field. Thompson continually showcased his quick twitch and strength within his bat, along with quality defensive actions behind the plate. His play throughout the weekend stood out, earning him an invite to the Top Prospect Games in Milwaukee in just under a week.
