Chris
Iannuzzi

Southeastern CC commit. Iannuzzi has been on a tear this season, helping lead the Patriots to a 7-4 record. Last week in Stevenson’s 11-1 win over Maroa-Forsyth, Iannuzzi went 2-for-3 with an RBI, and two runs scored. He went 3-for-4 with a home run, two doubles, three RBIs, and three runs scored in their 14-3 win over Obion County. Against Tipton Rosemark, he went 2-for-2 with two RBIs, and two runs scored. In his first nine games, Iannuzzi hit a home run, a triple and six doubles with ten RBIs.

RHP Chris Iannuzzi (Stevenson, 2023) threw three scoreless innings, striking out five and allowing only one hit on Wednesday morning. The 6-foot-3, 190-pound right-hander pitched in the low-80s, touching 84 mph with his fastball and consistently spotting it east-to-west for strikes. He regularly turned to a firm upper-70s cutter with late glove-side action and also threw a 75-78 mph changeup to left-handed hitters.
