Notes

Comments

9/20/23
INF Nehemiah Torres (Glenbrook North, 2026) and C Alex Nielsen (Antioch, 2026) were two other Illinois prospects to follow on the Hitters squad. Torres has an upside frame that moves free and easy with fluid rhythm to all parts of his game. Nielsen has a compact frame, was a reliable receiver behind the plate and stays compact and on-plane from the right-side of the box with loose, strong hands.
