UConn Baseball Commit Drew Kron:



-> Unlike some of Xavier's great QBs before him -- Tim Boyle (now with the Green Bay Packers) and Will Levis (starting at Kentucky) come to mind -- this likely will be Kron's last in football. He's committed to play baseball at UConn next year as an outfielder. <-

UConn sure does love their lefties and they pick up another with class of 2023 Charles West from Ward Melville high school in East Setauket, New York. He stands 5-11 160 which is a healthy frame for a lefty

I’m sure Anthony Kay (and Steve Matz) are smiling.

I’m sure Anthony Kay (and Steve Matz) are smiling.

And perhaps even Max Nielsen is smiling, another lefty pitcher from Ward Melville High School who was on the UConn baseball roster during the 2020 season before transferring away from Storrs.

I went to school with him throughout elementary and then for one year in middle school and he was always an athlete well beyond his years. He’s developed a lot through the years but has always been someone with great mechanics and a plus fastball

Cool update, Gaby Tirado, UConn commit, and Loomis Chaffee Class of ‘24 just made the NTIS Team USA National Team. I coached 15U Team USA-New England a few years back and these kids were beasts, let alone the ones that were selected for the National Team. Tirado is a special kind of player. Keep your eyes on this kid.

Considering his recent commitment to UConn baseball, perhaps a little proof that facilities matter.

 

[dbmill]

UConn now has 14 commitments from the Class of 2022 that have been reported on this thread. Getting to be another large recruiting class. Always possible someone may have changed their mind, but don't know of anyone who did yet.

Brett Davino Class of 2023 - Player Profile | Perfect Game USA

Brett Davino Class of 2023 Perfect Game Player Profile

Brett Davino

www.prepbaseballreport.com

6-foot-170-pound, average athletic frame, sloped shoulders, with room for added weight gains. Body works with easy effort, smooth actions and movements. A left-handed hitting middle infielder, at the plate, has a fluid level swing through the zone, more of a pull approach. The exit velocity was up to 92 mph, hard contact in batting practice. An average runner ran a 7.0 sixty-yard dash. Defensively, the glove is soft, good flow to both directions, getting off the blocks quickly. The arm has strength to it, clocked at 80 mph, plenty of flight and carry across the diamond. Can spin it from both sides of the bag, footwork is advanced. With additional added strength game will continue to climb.

Jack LaRose Class of 2024 - Player Profile | Perfect Game USA

Jack LaRose Class of 2024 Perfect Game Player Profile

www.perfectgame.org

Jack LaRose is a 2024 SS/RHP, 2B with a 6-0 185 lb. frame from Cumberland, RI who attends Bishop Hendricken. Recorded a 7.39 second 60 yard dash time. Medium frame and thick build. Primary shortstop with twitchy actions and a quick release. Fields out front with a funnel to the center, shorter arm action, around the bag with the throws at 78 mph. Showed the ability to drop slots, clean glove and solid round overall. Secondary right-handed pitcher with a full and clean arm action, gets under the ball at release, pushes to the plate. Switches the arm slot from high three-quarters to more of a side arm look, big change in velo between the two. Gets extended over the front side and fills up the zone. Left-handed pitcher with an even stance and high hand and back elbow set. Very whippy bat, gets the head out and stays grounded. Flat bat path, back spins balls to the pull side, going to play big in the future. Great student.

John Toppa also went to Bishop Hendricken.
