C Freddie Matvias (DePaul College Prep, 2025) popped up as an impressive defender behind the dish. Listed at 6-foot-1, 170-pounds, Matvias still has plenty of room to fill out in the coming years. His defensive round was one, if not the best on the day; working with extremely quick hands throughout his transfer, staying simple and directional out of the crouch to produce a pop-time as low as 1.93 seconds (T77 mph). At the plate, the right-handed hitter has a loose swing with uphill tendencies and upside and he continues to develop.
