Team Preview: Brookfield Academy

March 11, 2014

By Steve Nielsen
Scouting Director - Wisconsin/Illinois

As we lead up to the start of Wisconsin's spring high school season we will be rolling out team previews from schools across the state.

Team: Brookfield Academy
2013 Record: 18-6
Conference: Midwest Classic
WIAA Class: 3
Head Coach: Doug Kolasinski
Playoff Run: Lost regional final

Returning Starters: 5
Returning Pitchers: 2

TOP PLAYERS (Commitment)
Nate Stolte, RHP/3B, 2014 (Wisconsin-Parkside)
Sam Meier, C/MIF, 2014
Aaron Goecks, RHP/OF, 2016
Jack Lesczcynski, SS, 2016
Ryan Kolasinski, INF, 2017

KEY PLAYER LOST
Jacob Kolasinski (Wisconsin-Parkside)

STAT RAT
Nate Stolte went 6-2 on the mound last season with a 1.56 ERA, hitting .500 as well.

X-FACTOR
Aaron Goecks is a sophomore transfer from Sussex who recently posted a 98 mph exit velocity from the left side at the Milwaukee Preseason ID. If Goecks bat speed translates into numbers for the Blue Knights he could bring a big impact to their lineup.

OUTLOOK
The Blue Knights will be lacking depth and experience but a solid mix of front line pitching and offense should give them a good chance to compete for a conference title. Brookfield Academy will rely on three underclassmen to carry a big load this year in Goecks, Jack Lesczcynski and Ryan Kolasinski.

NOTE: Any high school coaches that have not turned in their PBR Preseason Questionnaire please do so to Steve Nielsen at [email protected].
