Uncommitted Spotlight: Lothes Continues To Make Improvement

Christian Lothes LHP / OF / Lakewood Hebron , OH / 2019

HEBRON - In the past year Christian Lothes has gotten bigger and worked on making key improvements on the mound. Now the Hebron Lakewood senior-to-be is ready to make college visits in his quest to play at the next level.

“My senior year is ahead, so I’d like to commit this summer,” Lothes said. “I just need to keep improving, get my velo up more, gain more weight and add more muscle to explode more off the mound.”

Getting bigger is something Lothes has done over the last 12 months.

“I’ve made good improvements in the weight room which helped me gain 25 pounds,” noted Lothes, now 6-2 and 195 pounds (down from 200 in the winter). “That has really helped. I was 175 last year and didn’t have a whole lot of muscle. More weight and muscle has helped me with driving off the mound and not getting hurt.”

It was last summer that the Lothes played for Brownlee only to have an injury cut his season short.
