+ Schembra continues to show solid growth as an athlete and it is paying dividends across the board. His 5-foot-11, 200 pound frame is beginning to become physical and he turned in a 6.91 60-yard dash. The Valpo recruit turns a tight barrel with feel to manipulate & some loft in the path. His 101-plus exit provide impact and Schembra appears primed to hit and hit for power for CG this spring. The arm is a tool, 93 from the OF & 89 across the diamond, and he can flat out pick it at 1B, likely profiling best as a corner OF, but the glove at first is excellent.
