Game Performance

Notes

10/17/24
Despite only running and hitting at the event, the 6-foot-1, 210-pound recent Louisville commit made a loud impression. He started the day by running a 7.00 laser-timed 60 and followed up with a intentful, loud round of BP. Nugent consistently showed off advanced bat strength and raw power to both gaps, consistently elevating the baseball. Nugent easily led the event in Max and average exit velocity at T103.1 and 95.8 mph average. His furthest batted ball traveled 377’ and he registered an event best 90% hard hit percentage.
