---

Macgraw VanWormer OF / RHP / Prescott, AZ / 2029 Macgraw has a presence to him, and it showed early when he posted a 6.69 sixty before rolling that athleticism straight into his offensive work. His hands worked freely, he held his positions well, and the ball jumped off the barrel with natural carry. That same looseness showed up in the outfield where his strides and arm strength stood out.

Ivan Utz OF / RHP / Desert Edge High School, AZ / 2026 Ivan’s round was full of mature, gap to gap contact and he carried himself with the poise of an upperclassman. He repeated a balanced move, kept his hands working through the baseball, and produced some of the better exit numbers of the group. His 6.78 sixty and fluid outfield actions rounded out a look at a player with a strong blend of strength and athleticism.

Carter Neville SS / 2B / Mountain Ridge, AZ / 2027 Rankings  StateRank: 49 / POS: 9 Carter showed impressive maturity for a young switch hitter, keeping his swing simple and on time on both sides of the plate. He stayed balanced, worked through the baseball, and produced consistent line drives throughout his round. His 6.94 sixty backed up the athleticism, and his arm strength jumped out as the loudest tool of the group (94mph), producing some of the truest, most effortless throws of the day.

Niko Clavell SS / 3B / Valley Christian, AZ / 2027 Niko carried himself with a calm confidence and backed it up with one of the more explosive swings of the day. His hands worked freely with real strength behind them, and he consistently drove the ball with authority to all parts of the yard. He moved well in the infield, showing clean footwork and steady actions, and his 6.84 sixty added another layer to a strong all around look.

EJ Johnson SS / 2B / Mountain Ridge, AZ / 2026 EJ showed a simple, repeatable swing built around balance and a direct path that produced consistent middle of the field contact. Even with a no stride move, he stayed controlled and let his hands work, keeping the barrel in the zone a long time. He posted a solid 6.82 sixty and carried that athleticism into his defensive work, where his actions stayed clean and his arm played true across the diamond.

Zachary Mermis C / RHP / Verrado High School, AZ / 2026 Zach had one of the more reliable defensive showings of the catching group, handling the baseball well and showing a confident arm that led to pop times right around two flat. His offensive round matched that steadiness, as he stayed in control, used his lower half well, and consistently drove the ball with authority. The strength in the bat stands out early, and he pairs it with the kind of feel behind the plate that projects him to stay at the position.

Gavin Luna C / 3B / Desert Mountain, AZ / 2026 Gavin showed one of the cleaner, more mature swings in the catching group, staying balanced and driving firm line drives to all fields with ease. His bat to ball skills really stood out, as he consistently delivered the barrel even when the tempo of his leg lift varied. Behind the plate he showed steady actions with pop times right around two flat, and he carried himself with the confidence of someone who understands his game well.

Griffin Gregory C / 3B / Mountain Ridge, AZ / 2027 Griffin’s strength jumped out immediately, and the swing matched the body. He stayed balanced, let his hands work, and produced heavy contact with a long stay through the zone that helped him drive the ball deep to both sides. His catching work was steady, and he turned in sub two pop times with throws that carried well to the bag. He has the look of a young player who is only going to keep growing into even more impact.

Gavin Hopper OF / RHP / Kingman Academy of Learning - High School, AZ / 2026 Gavin impressed with a relaxed setup and a swing that produced loud contact when he stayed under control. He showed the ability to drive the ball to the opposite field with real carry, and the intent in his swing stood out throughout the round. In the outfield he moved well, showing a 7.11 sixty and a calm, confident approach to each rep.

Dennis Carey OF / 3B / Liberty, AZ / 2027 Dennis showed maturity in the box with a simple, quiet setup that allowed him to find barrels at a high rate. He used the middle of the field naturally and stayed through the ball with a smooth, level stroke that produced consistent line drive contact. He moved well for his size, posting a 6.96 sixty, and his arm strength gave him some versatility to move between the outfield and third base.
