2012?s 12th ranked prospect commits



 Nick McCarty is a 6-foot-3 inch, 175 pound RHP at Cathedral High School in Indianapolis and will be attending the University of Notre Dame in fall 2012.  McCarty helped lead Cathedral to the 4A state championship game last year as a sophomore.  During the summer and fall he plays for the Indiana Bulls organization.  McCarty shows a mid-80?s fastball with the ability to get it up into the high 80?s (89 mph this past winter at a PBR event).  He displays a fluid arm action with movement on his pitches.  Along with his fastball, McCarty throws two off speed pitches for a strike; a low to mid-70?s changeup and breaking ball.  McCarty is a part of one of the toughest one-two combinations in the state alongside teammate LHP Dillon Peters (Univ. of Texas).
