Hickory Grove Christian
Drew Lanzo, LHP, 2021
Medium build at 6-foot, 175 pounds. Stable over the rubber with a simple turn and kick. Short arm swing, loading the scapular, allowing the elbow to get slightly above the shoulder line. Works to a ¾ slot. Lands on-line and square. Good rhythm and direction. Average to above arm speed. Attacked the down zone with the fastball and breaking ball. Fastball at 78-80, spinning between 1800 – 1900 rpm. Breaking ball at 68-69 with a sweepy 2/8 tilt. More freeze than swing and miss on the breaker.
