Ardizzone has the most consistent in-game track record of the three, posting a huge statistical season for Roncalli as a sophomore. His best present day tool is his foot speed, burning a 6.79 60 at this event, with well-rounded skills throughout including a repeatable right-handed swing that works on-plane. He is sure-handed on the dirt with a chance to stick at short, and enough athleticism to project he will at least be able to stay in the middle.

Ardizzone is a super interesting athlete that burned a 6.69 60 at this event. The feet are some of the best in the class and he has an above average offensive profile. The swing is short and athletic with twitch in a more linear operation. He is rangy up the middle, likely fitting best at 2B at the next level, but he has a chance to be offensive and continues to elevate himself as a prospect w linear development.

+ '27 SS Gio Ardizzone (Roncalli) showed very well, bouncing back from injury after seeing varsity time at Roncalli as a freshman. The athletic, 6-foot, 165 pounder showed best in the box, with an easy, well-timed loading mechanism that helps produce a well-sequenced, loose-wristed swing. His hands are accurate and he clubbed multiple balls over 90 with his best leaving at 94.7 mph. On the dirt, the hands are solid and he shows above average range laterally, to go along with average arm strength across. Gio is a good athlete with above average straight-line speed for this class (7.04).
