Will
Cahill

Cahill’s upside as a 6-foot-2, 180-pound athlete is not limited to any one thing, and there is strong potential for him to continue as a two-way player at the next level. The left-handed hitter features a sweet stroke that should see a significant power uptick in coming years as a future run-producer, but also showcased intriguing stuff on the mound this summer with a fastball that sat 85-87 thanks to a quick arm with a firmer 74-76 curveball, and more velocity on the way. An athlete above all else, look for Cahill to continue climbing in the spring as part of what is shaping up to be a stellar 2025 class in the state of Washington.

A highly athletic name-to-know, Fr. OF/RHP Will Cahill (Seattle Prep, 2025). Ranked inside the top-200 on our initial Class of 2025 National Rankings, the 6-foot-2, 170-pound Cahill was one of the better underclass prospects we saw this winter. Cahill ran a 7.19 60-yard dash at our Preseason All-State event in February, significantly improving from the 7.55 time he just ran at an event late last October. Showed advanced bat speed for his age (73.8 mph average) and power potential as well, squaring up his hardest ball at 93.7 mph while launching his furthest batted ball 342 ft. Cahill finished his position player workout with an impressive showing in the OF with quick feet and a loose, lively arm that topped at 87 mph. He hopped on the mound afterwards and threw his FB for strikes at 82-84 mph while mixing in a tightly spun slider at 72-73 mph. Heading into his first season at the high school level, Cahill is certainly going to be a name we’ll closely monitor throughout this year

Cahill made a loud impression at the Underclass Fall Classic at Oregon State, and was firmly in the conversation as the top player at the entire event. At 6-foot-2, 168-pounds, the frame oozes projection with present fluidity to the athleticism. Hitting each ball with authority from the first pitch of batting practice, Cahill posted multiple 90+ exit velocities (92.8 max) with a max distance of 328 feet. The left-handed slugger is balanced in his approach from a slightly crouched base. The hands start low, below the shoulder, triggering back with quick coil before a fluid flat path is shown. Strong wrists and quick hands provide advanced bat speed with some lag present in the zone as he gets quality use of the lower-half. Also showing some upside on the mound with a fast arm, the intangibles on the day stood almost as much as the future hit-tool. There is a quiet confidence to the way he carries himself, and Cahill’s in-game at-bats saw swings with controlled aggression including the ability to hit off-time. Overall, the young outfielder is clearly a name for college coaches to follow as he continues to progress in coming years.
