Game Performance

Notes

3/20/26
Purdue Northwest Commit. Plainfield North senior Johnny Andretich put together an impressive night at the plate, going 4 for 4 with two RBIs and a walk while consistently controlling the barrel throughout the game. The 5’10”, 175-pound outfielder showed a balanced, repeatable swing with minimal swing and miss, spraying hard contact to all fields and staying on time against different pitch types. Andretich flashed above-average barrel feel with the ability to manipulate the barrel and keep line drives working gap to gap, while also showing sneaky pop in the bat. He paired the offensive performance with quality foot speed on the bases, allowing his skill set to impact the game in multiple ways. Coming off a strong showing at the 2025 Illinois State Games, where he earned MVP honors, Andretich looks to be carrying that momentum into the spring and is off to a strong start to what could be a productive senior campaign for Plainfield North.
