Lana Carlton (20266 Bentonville, AR) showed a really strong point of contact and drove balls to both gaps regularly. Stayed level through the zone and the all fields approach looks advanced.
Arianna Corsbie (2024 Des Moines, IA) keeps a simple process to create pretty easy hand speed. Stronger hands that work through contact very well and when out front has easy carry off the barrel.
Brooklyn Andrew (2024 Winterset, IA) lags the hands well and uses the body efficiently. Gets on plane and works the barrel very well out front. Fires the back leg with intent and has a very confident launch.
Chloe Barber (2023 Lino Lakes, MN) turns the barrel hard on the back picking up early barrel speed. Uses the long levers well to lift balls to all fields, including a couple of homeruns during batting practice.
Sophia Bauman (2025 Grimes, IA) displayed very fast hands to the ball and back spun a number of line drives to all fields. This is a very interesting young hitter given the easy she fires the bat through the zone.
Jaylynn Brandt (2024 Norwalk, IA) works the barrel inside and has very good bat to ball skills. The was some jump off the bat to the opposite field and the swing was simple and easy to repeat.
Addison Brunner (2023 Des Moines, IA) has a loose bottom hand allowing her to whip the barrel through contact. There is projectable power in the swing, but the ball is already coming off hard when se is on time.
Shania Burkhalter (2023 Taft, OK) uses the strong core and excellent swing plane to over power the ball to the pull side. The path is geared to produce hard line drives and she did that regularly during workouts.
Hannah Gralund (2022 Marion, IA) has a relaxed set up and keeps the barrel flat as she extends through contact. There is a quick fire with the wrists really helping to accelerate the barrel creating loud contact.
Jerzey Hanna (2025 Kansas City, KS) fires the hips hard creating good separation allowing the bat to whip through the hitting zone. The intent based approach allows to drive the ball with good carry to all fields.
Jaydan Hanna (2024 Kansas City, KS) has an advanced approach, using the whole field with the ability to split the gaps regularly. She had no problem getting off her “A” swing with each launch of the bat.
Macy Gregor (2024 Bloomington, MN) has a sweet left-handed swing that produced multiple homers during batting practice. There is real upside given the ingredients to the loose swing and ability to space the bat out front.
Kylie Hamers (2023 North Liberty, IA) consistently found the center of the barrel. The knack for finding the barrel stood out, but don’t underestimate the power as she drove the ball deep to the middle of the field regularly.
Mya January (2024 Springhill, KS) with a very powerful stroke and good sequence working from the ground up. She uses her back leg well and stays grounded allowing the barrel to work aggressively through contact producing natural lift.
Kyra Kain (2024 Urbandale, IA) naturally separates allowing her to get on plane early and pick up the barrel speed deep in the zone. There are bad intentions with the approach as she smoked liner after liner to the pull side with a lot behind the swing.
Savannah Booker (2023 Leavenworth, KS) really simple process with an explosive base that helps with easy pull pop. The barrel is heavy and can put a charge into the ball to all fields at any time.
