Luke Duncan

As happens each year, there are an abundance of outstanding catchers still available in the senior class. Among them, Luke Duncan's (Dougherty Valley HS, San Ramon) catch/throw and raw arm talent are near the top of the class. Stopwatches give times and radar guns provide velocity info, but when watching him throw, you can put down the watch and the gun and the eyes tell the story. It's that good. 1.91-1.97 were the times and the velo max was 79 mph. He's also strong in the other catcher attributes, receiving and blocking balls in the dirt. Offensively he's certainly competitive (particularly to the pull side) and still grinding his way to his ceiling, which still lies ahead of him.
