RHP Ryan Sopha (Pewaukee, 2024) gave our scouting staff a strong look throughout the duration of his ‘pen. Currently the No. 57 ranked player in the state, Sopha is built with a durable 6-foot-4, 225-pound frame with impressive athleticism down the mound. Sopha worked his fastball in the 83-85 mph range, struggling to command it at times but playing with life through the zone. His next offering was a sweeping slider at 70-71 mph, averaging over 17” of horizontal movement and reaching over 20”. To round off his repertoire he went to a fading changeup at 75-79 mph, playing with up to 15” of run.
