OF Eli Olson (Routt Catholic, 2025) is a high-ceiling left-handed hitting prospect who stood out at the event.

From the left side of the plate, he has flashed a fluid, upside swing that stays short and direct at times, producing a 95.8 mph max exit velocity to go along with a max distance of 344 feet. He was on the barrel 70% of the time, throughout his round according to TrackMan. From the outfield Olson has active feet and easy actions with a quality arm that produced a max velocity of 82 mph on his best throw to home. Olson is left the event as a name to know in the 2025 class.
