The number two prospect in Kansas’ 2025 class, OF Cole Pladson (Clay Center; Oklahoma State commit) is coming off a huge spring that saw him garner Prep Baseball First Team All-State and Kansas Gatorade Player of the Year honors. His performance at Tuesday’s event was no different where the senior showed advanced feel for the barrel in his BP round posting a 92 mph average exit velocity with a top mark of 100.4 mph, showing effortless bat speed (75.4 mph average) and strength in a compact, repeatable swing. Additionally, the 5-foot-11, 185-pound Pladson was up to 83 mph from the outfield with a 6.89 60 to pair.
