9/23/23

After showing well for the past couple of weeks, OF Noah Drake (Castle, 2024; Indiana commit) continued to do the same over the weekend. From the left side of the plate, Drake presents a smooth swing that showcased easy power to the pull-side in his matchup early on Saturday morning. Drake racked up two doubles, displaying his 6.95-second 60-yard dash on the basepaths in a win for Top Tier Americans. The 6-foot-1, 190-pound athlete currently sits at No. 34 in a loaded 2025 class in the state of Indiana, looking to continue that trend in the winter and eventually the spring.
