On Saturday, March 1st, we hosted our Preseason All-State: Underclass event, perennially our most exclusive and talented event on our winter calendar for rising freshman and sophomores. This past year we saw over 150 of the top players from around the state, giving us one final look before the spring season kicked off.

RHP Owen Borkowski (Huntley), LHP Cole Brent (Normal University) and LHP Quinn Rooney (Benet Academy) are a couple of uncommitted 2027 arms that just missed the cut below but remain high follows in the class.

RHP Jay Baird (Hinsdale Central) is an upside 2028 who also deserves a mention despite just missing the list. Baird is a long-levered, two-way prospect with upside to all parts of his game.

Read on below for a look at all of the arms from the day, broken by class.
