Jacob Kania: 3B, (2025) Berea-Midpark, OH. 6-foot, 165-pound. (71.1 mph bat speed average). (23.0 mph hand speed average). Started in a balanced athletic stance with a controlled load, then used a quick stride. Bat speed is quick, shows a simple upward swing plane and high finish. Solid while in the infield, made throws at velocities up to 77 mph; has sure hands, a natural exchange, and consistent feet. Laterally, movements were athletic and fielded the ball out front. Showed a consistent arm action with a high ¾ slot. In the 60-yard dash, he clocked a time of 7.49. (Max spin ; Avg ).
