Lockport Rising Stars ID: Player Analysis
June 27, 2025
On Wednesday, April 16th, the Prep Baseball Illinois staff hosted the Lockport Rising Stars ID at Bo Jackson’s Elite Sports in Lockport. The event was open to all Rising Stars classes (2029-30), and gave our staff an ample look at the area’s top players.
There were plenty of young prospects to note from the event, many of whom are still miles away from what they will look like a finished product. One catcher who stood out during bullpens and then put together an overall high-level performance was Terrell Hampton Hall (De La Salle, 2029). Hall is an advanced receiver and also showed off a smooth, easy, strong right-handed swing that should play for years to come.
OF/RHP Tyler Lanzi (Providence Catholic, 2029) was another who was worth noting from the event, running a 7.11 60, 78 OF velocity and peaked at 89 mph during BP. He also showed well on the mound and carried it over to game play at the Illinois Rising Stars game.
Nolan Maranell (Wheaton Warrenville South, 2029) and Grant Liebing (Lemont, 2029) and others showed above-average actions and should stick on the dirt long term.
Now, we’re releasing all of the scouting reports from the event, found below.
