Danny
Donovan

Wisconsin-Parkside signee. Currently ranked No. 170 in the state. Lean 6-foot-1, 188-pound frame with some present strength. Batted leadoff and played centerfield for the Vikings. Donovan had an athletic showing on both sides of the ball. In center, he covers ground with easy foot speed and quality reads off the bat. Offensively, the right-handed hitter has a rhythmic pre-pitch setup, short and simple stride, and a flatter bat path with some twitch, flashing barrel strength with an opposite field double in his second at-bat. A signed name to follow as he wraps up his prep career this spring.

Verbally committed to the University of Wisconsin-Parkside.

OF Danny Donovan (St. Laurence, 2026) couldn’t stay off the bases as he racked up hit-after-hit. Athletic 6-foot-1, 189-pound frame. The right-handed hitter operates from a balanced base with a small stride. Compact swing that is long and quick through the zone. Has a whole field approach at the plate. Donovan ran 6.90 60 while posting a 99 mph max EV during Tuesday’s workout. The incoming senior has versatility defensively and will continue to shine where he is.
