Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Uncommitted. 6-foot-1, 215-pound, physical, strong and durable left-handed hitting catcher. Field general, grinder mentality. Caught every inning of a double header on Friday and handled a number of high-level arms with advanced stuff. Willing and able blocker. Also, hit in the two-hole in both games with his best production coming in the night-cap against No. 1 Edwardsville. Launched a two-run double deep into the right-center field gap in his third at-bat of the game. Also, lined a single to left-field in his final at-bat. Finished 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored.
C Zach Pomatto (Joliet Catholic, 2025) has all kinds of physicality in his 6-foot-1, 215-pound frame and it is evident in the box. He has strong hands with an average of 72 mph bat speed and made hard, loud, lifted contact throughout his round. He peaked at 91.9 mph off the bat and his furthest batted ball traveled 340'. He also was one of the top defensive catchers, topping at 81 mph from the crouch with a low pop time of 1.96. Should be a key part of the Hilltopper lineup this spring.
Positional Profile: 2B/C
Body: 5-2, 115-pounds.
Defense: Feet attack the baseball, glove plays under center of body, hands funnel inward to midline, slight pack to release.
Arm: RH. INF - 64 mph. Short arm action, high 3/4 slot.
Hit: LHH. Balanced base with a slight crouch, simple and smooth load, short stride, controlled posture through contact. Maintains a level path to contact. Some feel to spray line drives to all fields, knack for the barrel.
Power: 70 mph exit velocity from the tee.
Run: 8.34 runner in the 60.
Positional Profile: 2B/C

Arm: RH. INF - 60 mph. Short arm action, high 3/4 slot.
Hit: LH. Balanced setup, hands load back, short stride to even. Long path, repeats well.
Power: 62 mph exit velocity from the tee.
Run: 9.09 runner in the 60.
