Game Performance

Notes

11/20/25
Verbally committed to Illinois Wesleyan.
4/24/25

Uncommitted. Lean 6-foot-3, 177-pound frame with some present strength throughout. Batted third and played first base for the Knights. The right-handed hitter put together one of the better at-bats in the game off one of the top arms in the country, working an eight pitch at-bat and fouling off some tough pitches. He showed a flat path paired with strong hands. A name to continue to monitor this spring.

1B Conor McCabe (Lincoln-Way Central, 2026) impressed with the bat on Monday. The 6-foot-2, 178-pound right-handed hitter has a lean and projectable frame, and his power projects as he will continue to fill out. At the plate, he displayed an easy swing with a balanced finish, working short to the ball and flat through the zone while using the whole field; getting stronger as the round went on, McCabe started to wear out the right/center gap with hard line-drives.
