1B Jackson McDonald (St. Thomas Aquinas, 2028) put his name firmly on the radar as one of the top power bats in the region after a loud showing during Tuesday’s BP round. Physically imposing at 6-foot-2, 243-pounds, McDonald showed off his advanced raw strength, repeating loud, lifted contact to the pull side throughout. He averaged 93.1 mph per batted ball and peaked at 103.8 mph, one of the day’s top marks. His ability to tap into that power consistently—and have it show up in-game—makes him a name-to-know offensive threat in the 2028 class.
