Nick Belzer (2013 - Ankeny HS) pitched very well today for the Red team sitting at 84-86 MPH with his fastball. He has a loose quick arm action with projectable velocity. Belzer also threw a sharp breaking ball with good downer action on it. He's a very good follow for the 2013 class.
Matt Johnson (2013 - Ankeny HS) also pitched well sitting at 84-86 MPH. Johnson has been a strike thrower pretty much every outing I've seen over the past 2 years and today was no exception. He pounded the strike zone with his fastball and showed command of his curveball as well. He also swung the bat well making solid contact and good bat speed. He's a legit two-way prospect and should be followed closely.
Nate Schweers (2014 - Ankeny HS) sat at 79-81 MPH with his fastball and was around the plate. He's another quality arm from Ankeny HS! He's got a clean quick arm action and throws strikes. He's an interesting follow for the 2014 class.
Brady Mayo (2014 - Sioux City North HS) and Jake Westphal (2014 - Sioux City East HS) both solid follows for the 2014 class out of Sioux City. Mayo showed good bat speed and strength in his swing today. Westphal showed bat speed as well as good defensive actions at shortstop.
