8/15/2020

Owen Coffman (2021 RHP, Grinnell, IA) started on the bump for the gold team, going four innings with three strikeouts and one walk. He sat 80-84 mph with great feel for his 67-mph curveball. Coffman stands at an impressive 6-foot-9 and will be an exciting prospect to watch as he continues to get stronger and fill out his frame. 

Owen Puk (2021 RHP, Cedar Rapids, IA) showed off his two-way potential today, throwing two innings with three strikeouts and going 1-for-2 with a double in the left field corner at the plate. Puk sat 81-84 mph with a smooth and repeatable delivery. He has shown great barrel accuracy and aggressive base running this weekend. 

Kyle Schupmann (2022 3B, Geneva, IL) had two homeruns yesterday, and almost hit a third in today's game. He hit a two-RBI double to the fence in left center field, capping off an impressive weekend and showcasing his power and bat speed. 

Reed Stallman (2021 1B, Robins, IA) was 2-for-4 for the Gold team in this contest. He barreled one right up the middle for a single in his first at bat and then smoked a line drive to right center field for his second hit of the game. 

Kellen Strohmeyer (2022 SS, Dubuque, IA) turned on one for a double to right center field for the Gold team. The North Carolina commit has shown a smooth and quick swing with good carry to his pull side. 

Coy Sarsfield (2021 OF, Marion, IA) showcased his speed with a double down the left field line. He has shown impressive athleticism and quickness with his bat and his feet throughout the weekend. 

Thomas Hunt (2021 RHP, Bancroft, WI) got the start for the Maroon team, going three strong innings and striking out six opposing hitters. He sat 80-84 and topped at 85-mph on his fastball. He threw his slider at 72-mph with good tilt and bite and received many swings and misses on it. He also showcased his power at the plate with a deep, opposite field double to the corner in left field.

Brandon Ford (2021 MIF, Oak Park, MI) had a nice showing for the Maroon team, going 2-for-3 and making a nice unassisted double play at second base. Ford had a single to left field and showcased his speed and athleticism by beating the throw for an infield single in his next at bat. 


Green vs Royal Game Highlights

8/16/2020

Caleb Corbin (2021 SS, Urbandale, IA) Displayed very good feel for the barrel with the ability to work to all fields. Collected three hits in game action including a double in his last at-bat.

Rece Heinen (2021 C, Urbandale, IA) Showed good bat speed through the zone with the ability to turn barrel with intent. Drove a double in his second at-bat on a fastball located middle-in.

Aiden McGee (2021 OF, West Des Moines, IA) Was impressive on the mound and showed good arm speed through extension. Fastball topped at 88 mph showing heavy actions through the zone. Also flashed good feel for a slider and changeup ion the mid 70's.

Tony Pluta (2022 C, Palatine, IL) Showed well on the mound topping at 87 mph. Consistently looked to attack hitter to the bottom of the zone and induced weaker contact. Changed speed well one ahead in the count showing a 10/5 breaking ball and sinking changeup.

Brock Martinez (2021 3B, Plainview, MN) Utilized a smooth, repeatable line drive barrel plane with good feel for the barrel. Consistently produced loud, hard contact throughout the game picking up two base hits. 

Mitch Wood (2021 SS, Ottumwa, IA) Was impressive on the mound showing good feel for edge edge of the plate working up to 87 mph. Fastball showed heavy run through the zone that created weak contact off the barrel. Kept hitters off balance with a curveball, slider and changeup. The 2021 grad worked three scoreless innings while striking out 3 batters.


Batting Practice Highlights

8/15/2020

Gage Franck (2021 OF, Marion, IA) was the first hitter of batting practice and he got everything off to a solid start, showing a very accurate barrel generated by a nice, repeatable simple swing approach.  He squared up almost every pitch and showed some carry to the gaps.

Noah Jouras (2021 C, Western Springs, IL) has good present strength at 6-0/190 and uses that strength well in his swing.  He drove the ball from gap to gap and got plenty of jump off the barrel.

Coy Sarsfield (2021 OF, Marion, IA) is a quick twitch athletic with plenty of compact strength and he creates plenty of raw bat speed with his right handed swing.  He gets a bit power happy at times as his future is working gap to gap and using his 6.5 speed to get extra bases.

Owen Puk (2021 RHP, Cedar Rapids, IA) is a primary 6-4/180 right handed pitcher but there is plenty of two-way talent there as well.  He was very consistent in his timing and barrel accuracy and has plenty of leverage and extension through contact.

Kellen Strohmeyer (2022 SS, Dubuque, IA) already has a commitment to North Carolina and it looks like a major reason the Tar Heels want the young left handed hitter is because of his bat and projection.  The 6-3/180 Strohmeyer has a smooth and fluid swing with present bat speed and lots of future power coming as he gets stronger.

John Doty (2021 1B, Urbandale, IA) looks the part of the power hitting first baseman at a still projectable 6-3/210 and generates very good right handed bat speed without much effort.

Mitch Wood (2021 SS, Ottumwa, IA) had a calm and simple middle of the field but it was on the couple of swings that he turned on the ball that he showed his strength and bat speed the best.  The Iowa commit has a nice combination of offensive and defensive ability.

Brandon Ford (2021 MIF, Oak Park, MI) has quick hands and a short and effective swing.  It was fun to watch him open it up near the end of his round and launch a bomb over the left field fence.

Bruce Jellison (2022 3B, Highland, MI) has a long and loose swing with very good extension out front.  It's a power approach and the young right handed hitter showed his ability to drive the left centerfield gap, and beyond, very well.

Colter McAnelly (2023 SS, Cheyenne, WY) is a rare player from the state of Wyoming and is already a Missouri commit.  He has a very projectable 6-3/175 build and a nice fluid swing that just going to keep adding bat speed as he fills in and gets stronger.

Tony Pluta (2022 C, Palatine, IL) has a compact 5-8/160 build and lots of quick twitch muscle.  He showed impressive bat speed and raw power during his round with lots of jump off the barrel when he was timed up.

Gunner Aldridge (2021 2B, Lake Orion, MI) showed obvious next level bat speed from the left side with an attacking, pull oriented swing.  We're looking forward to seeing him swing the stick in games.

 


Maroon vs. Royal Highlights

8/15/2020

Jackson Holmes (2021 RHP, Columbia, IL) was outstanding in three innings of work, using the mid-70s slider as an excellent strikeout pitch. The Saint Louis commit ran the fastball up to 88mph and mixed speeds well. 

Brandon Ford (2021 MIF, Oak Park, MI) put together plenty of quality at-bats for the Maroon team, finding the barrel on a couple occasions while also showing good ability to work deep into counts to get on base. 

Omar Boyd (2021 OF, Southfield, MI) showed good speed on his way to multiple infield singles on Saturday, as the uncommitted Michigan native put pressure on the defense with a quick first step out of the box. 

Gavin Huffman (2021 RHP, East Alton, IL) was strong in his three innings of work, sitting low-80s (T85) with a heavy fastball and mixing speeds well with a low-70s slider. Huffman shows good feel for the secondary offering and generates swings-and-misses. 

Aiden McGee (2021 OF, West Des Moines, IA) found the barrel with some consistency on Saturday, driving a ball deep to the gap in one trip to the plate and flashing some serious bat speed from the right side. The primary outfielder is a Minnesota State commit. 


Gold vs. Green Highlights

8/15/2020

Kyle Schupmann (2022 3B, Geneva, IL) had a monster day for the Gold team, going 2-for-3 with two bombs and two RBIs. Both homeruns were no-doubt, high fly balls to left field. He dropped the barrel on a low fastball on his first homerun, squaring up a very tough pitch. The junior has a quick bat, serious power potential, and made some nice plays at third and shortstop. 

Aaron Savary (2022 RHP, Dubuque, IA) had a great day on the mound and in the box for the Gold team. He threw three strong innings, striking out four opposing batters and giving up no walks. He sat 82-85 mph with a nice four pitch mix. At the plate, he went 2-for-4 with two doubles, including a line drive to the opposite field gap. 

Gage Franck (2021 OF, Marion, IA) was 3-for-4 with two stolen bases for the Gold team. He hit a line drive RBI double in the right field gap to to score one in the 8th inning. He showed great bat-to-ball skills with a direct swing path and quick hands. 

Jackson Nove (2021 LHP, Fairfax, IA) started on the bump for the Gold squad, going three hitless innings and striking out two. The 6-foot-5 lefty sat 84-86 with a nice 77-mph changeup and a 68-mph curveball. He has a projectable frame with room to get stronger and more velo to come. 

Logan Runde (2021 RHP, Peosta, IA) threw the last three innings for the Gold team, giving up one hit and striking out five opposing batters. Runde was dominant in his outing, sitting 82-86 mph with great command. He threw a four pitch mix, including a 75-mph changeup, a 73-mph slider, and a 66-mph curveball. 

Gehrig Christensen (2021 C, Des Moines, IA) put together a nice day at the plate for the Green Squad, going 2-for-4 with three stolen bases. He showcased his speed and athleticism on the bases, easily grabbing three bags and beating out an infield single in the first inning. 

Gabriel Monosmith (2021 C, Ankeny, IA) found a couple of barrels for the Green team, going 2-for-3 and stealing four bases. Both of his hits were hard hit line drives, one over the third baseman's head and one in the six-hole

Mitch Wood (2021 SS, Ottumwa, IA) had a nice showing for the Green team at the plate and in the field. He was 1-for-3 with a double to right field and a run scored. He also played well defensively, showing good feet and a strong arm.
