Our Top Prospect Games, hosted annually at Grand Park, consistently brings a strong quantity of uncommitted prospects for the crowd of college coaches that recruit this event. The 2026 edition was no different, with several rising seniors performing well to boost their stock. We have compiled a list of uncommitted 2027s that performed above-and-beyond their peers at this event below, along with a crop of names to circle that we couldn't forget to mention.

Read along to find those standouts, with the full event stats to be found HERE. Stay on the lookout for a similiar summary of talented 2028 and 2029 grads in attendance to come in the days to follow.

Luke Bryant, RHP, Carmel : The 6-foot-3, 200 pound right-hander with projection remaining was one of the biggest winners on the mound. The arm is quick and compact working to a high 3/4 slot. Bryant moves down the mound well, creating above average extension on a heavy fastball that sat at 84-88.7 mph. The breaking ball has trended up nicely over 3+ year follow, now spinning in the 25-2600s with two-plane shape. Bryant froze batters with it, showing solid feel for the offering. Also flashed a 72-75 mph usable changeup with some fading action. Good follow for recruiters. 

Brody Cain, OF, Guerin Catholic : Cain showed a well-rounded tool-set in the showcase portion and was on the barrel in gameplay. The operation is repeatable in the box, starting in a wider base with a simple stride forward and a direct bat path. The athletic, 5-foot-9, 170 pounder reached a peak exit velocity of 93 mph in batting practice with a line-drive gap-to-gap approach. The feet are above average and the arm is his best tool as we've seen it up to 93 mph from the outfield. 

Kaden Crumes, SS, Yorktown : One of my favorite position players from the event, Crumes is a young-for-class prospect standing at 5-foot-10, 176-pounds. Showed bat strength in a consistent round of batting practice as he reached 99.4 mph and averaged 94.9 mph throughout, primarly working to the pull-side gap. Sets up tall and athletic with a hover type stride before turning the barrel uphill. Burned a 6.99 60 and stood-out most on the dirt with athletic feet, soft hands, and a quick transfer. The arm is an above average tool, as well. The athletic movement patterns are evident throughout, making Crumes a good follow for recruiters.

Drake Davis, OF, Mooresville : An athletic follow who stood out during the showcase portion. The feet are the best tool currently, as he turned in a 6.66 60 to begin the day, good for a top-five time at the event. Exit velocity peaked at 98+ mph in batting practice as he worked from a balanced stance with a quick load and stride. The swing is loose, works on a level path, and shows clear twitch. He also displayed athletic, playable actions during the defensive workout with an 84 mph arm. The 5-foot-11, 162-pounder has plenty of room to add strength to his wiry frame.

Brock Donat, C, Penn : A strong, 6-foot-1, 213-pound right-handed hitting backstop. Hits from a strong base with a controlled stride and level swing path. The operation is repeatable, with exit velocities peaking at 93+ mph as he showed solid strength at impact while flashing pull-side pop. A reliable defender behind the dish with an above-average arm, Donat was up to 78 mph from the crouch with 2.00-2.11 pop times. He also showed solid receiving ability during gameplay. Ran a 7.12 second 60, improving by two-tenths since the winter.

Jackson Graf, OF, Noblesville : One of the biggest winners from the day. Looked the part at check-in with a physical, 6-foot-2, 192 pound frame. Burned a 6.70 to begin the day and then put on a show in batting practice. Starts in a balanced stance with a simple load/stride. Turns the barrel with authority, showed big bat strength with an event-leading 104.1 mph exit velocity. Also torched a triple to the pull-side in gameplay. Some timing inconsistenies in the past but seems to be polishing up at a quality rate as he's flashed real raw power when on-time in our summer looks. Arm plays with average strength from the outfield (84). Big follow trending up in the class.

Braylon Gray, OF, Jeffersonville : An athletic prospect with plenty of room to add on strength to his 5-foot-11, 160-pound frame. The multi-sport atlete hits from a balanced, slightly crouced stance with a simple stride. The left-handed swing is short and I've seen Gray show quality contact skills in 10+ at-bats this year. The feet are quick, allowing him to cover ground well in the outfield, and he was up to 84 mph with the arm. Strength gains should help elevate the toolset, given the athletic movement patterns. High-motor.

Grady Harrell, SS, Penn : A lean, athletic, 5-foot-10, 165-pounder who has been a steady performer in front of our staff throughout 2026. Harrell burned a 6.62 60 to begin the day, the third-best time at the event. He hits from a balanced, relaxed setup, turning the barrel on a level path with a handsy operation. It’s a contact over power profile at present, with quality bat-to-ball skills standing out across our looks. He peaked at 90+ mph off the bat in batting practice while producing consistent line-drive contact. Shows athletic, quick feet on the dirt with average arm strength across the diamond. The athletic traits and some feel to hit make Harrell a good follow for recruiters.

Bryson Hill, RHP, Center Grove : One of my favorite projection arms from the 2027 class at the event. Hill has plenty of room to add strength to his wiry, athletic 6-foot-3, 170-pound frame. An up-tempo mover, he lifts to an athletic balance point before making a clean move down the slope. The arm works uninterrupted and quickly to a 3/4 slot. The fastball sat 84-86 mph with flashes of carry, and he also showed a low-80s sinker. The low-70s breaking ball generated both freezes and swing-and-miss. He also flashed a mid-70s changeup. I like the strike-throwing ability and feel for multiple shapes, and I expect the arsenal to continue trending up with added strength to his projectable frame.

Drew Horvath, RHP, Morgan Township : A 6-foot-2, 180-pounder with athleticism and room for additional strength. Horvath showed three usable pitches and control for all of them. He repeats the delivery well, working quickly to a moderate balance point before a simple move down the slope, landa square. The arm swing is long and works to a higher slot. The fastball sat 83-85.4 mph and was located to both sides of the plate, flashing carry at times. He showed feel to land a 74-76 mph two-plane curveball that spun in the 2,300-2,400 RPM range. Horvath also showed control of a fading 76-77 mph changeup. The top arm for one of the best teams in Indiana’s class 1A this spring. The delivery, strike-throwing ability, and three pitch mix point toward a starter profile. 

Hudson King, 3B, Forest Park : One of the biggest winners on the position player side. Physical, 6-foot-2, 200-pound frame jumps out in the left-handed batters box. Peaked at 97+ off the bat in batting practice, displaying raw power to the pull-side. Took quality hacks in gameplay, as well, ripping one down the line for a double and flying out to the track. Sets up in a wider stance, with a simple load and stride. The barrel works level with some steepness at times. Some rawness in the operation but is polishing at a quality rate. A 7.02 runner, King also showed arm strength across the diamond and hopped on the bump and touched 85. One of the more intruiging offensive follows from the event.

Jackson Lancaster, OF, McCutcheon : I liked the swings from Lancaster who looked the part in the box at 6-foot-3, 185 pounds. Starts in a balanced stance with a short stride forward before turning the barrel on-plane with bat speed. Exits peaked at 96.7 mph with a max distance of 347 feet in batting practice and he took good a quality hack in gameplay, as well. Also ran a 7.07 and showed fringy arm strength from the outfield. The bat speed and room for physical growth point to more impact down the road.

Cal Lemmons, C, Morgan Township: One of my favorite backstops still available, Lemmons had a solid showing following a 1A All-State junior year. He looked the part behind the dish with solid receiving abilities and above-average arm strength, tying for the top arm from the crouch (80 mph) with pop times in the 2.04–2.16 range. He also shows feel to hit at the plate, starting in a taller setup with a simple load before a direct bat path. Exit velocities peaked at 93.5 mph with some sneaky pull-side pop. A consistent performer in our looks this spring/summer with a valued profile, Lemmons is a quality position player to follow.

Brogan McClellan, LHP, Gibson Southern : A polished left-hander with feel to mix three pitches and fill the zone. McClellan was dominant over his two innings, with a fastball that sat 80–83 mph and showed quality control to both sides of the plate. The 68–71 mph sweeping slider was his best pitch, spinning into the 2,700s and generating swing-and-miss. He also killed spin on a quality mid-70s changeup that he showed feel for. The arm works clean within a repeatable delivery. The 6-foot-0, 185-pounder has the command and three-pitch mix to project as a starter.

Ryland Montgomery, SS, Pendleton Heights : A 5-foot-11, 152-pound infielder with solid actions across the board. Smooth load of the hands with a hover-type stride. The swing is repeatable with a direct bat path, peaking at 95.3 mph off the bat. Consistent round as he peppered line drives from gap to gap. Showed well on the dirt with quick feet, confident hands, and above-average arm strength across the diamond. An above-average runner with a sub-7.00 60 time. A fundamentally sound player who has been a steady performer across a two-year follow.

Boston Roberts, SS, Silver Creek : A wiry 5-foot-11, 155-pounder with twitch. He sets up balanced with a well-paced load, and the swing works short and is contact-oriented. Exit velocity peaked at 90.1 mph, averaging 83.8 throughout the round. Projects as a top-of-the-order, catalyst type. Showed best on the dirt with athletic feet and lateral quickness. The arm has been up to 90 mph across the diamond and has also touched 88 mph on the mound. An athletic follow. 

Griffin Snider, RHP, Noblesville : One of the top uncommitted arms still on the board, Snider stands at 6-foot-4, 190 pounds with plenty of projection remaining. He lifts to a bigger inward turn before making an athletic move down the slope. The arm is loose and quick on the backside, working to a 3/4 slot. There were some inconsistencies throughout the outing, but Snider flashed a devastating two-pitch mix. The fastball sat 86-88.3 mph at this event, though we’ve seen it up to 92 very recently. It plays with turbo arm-side sink, and the 76-77 mph sweeping slider tunnels exceptionally well off it. With the arm talent and swing-and-miss stuff, Snider is a must-follow for recruiters. 

Caleb Spinsky, OF, Penn : A lean, athletic, 5-foot-10, 152 pounder who turned in the best 60-time at the event (6.51). Simple operation in the box, looking to lift as he turns the barrel on an uphill plane with twitch present. Exits peaked at 92.6 mph in a consistent BP round. Athletic footwork in the outfield with an average arm (83). Clear college-level profile. 

Lucas Taylor, OF, Heritage : A strong, 5-foot-10, 186-pound prospect who earned All-State Third Team honors after a big junior year. Hits from a taller, relaxed stance with a simple load and stride. The swing works on plane, with exit velocities peaking at 96.8 mph while averaging 91.3 mph throughout a consistent batting practice round. The bat strength has continued to trend in the right direction. Foot speed is the best present tool, as he turned in a 6.68 60 to begin the day. Fringy arm strength from the outfield.

Jackson Treadway, SS, Carmel : One of the top uncommitted players in the class, Treadway has performed in front of our staff all year long. An athletic, high-waisted 6-foot-2, 192-pounder with projection remaining. He peaked at 98.6 mph in batting practice, showing bat speed and quality length out-front with consistent impacts. Treadway moves well on the dirt with an average arm across the diamond and turned in a 7.14 60 to begin the day. A young-for-class prospect who is really beginning to blossom on the summer circuit. A must-follow for Team Midwest at the Senior Future Games later this month.

Reid Walker, SS, Bloomington South : A staff favorite who has performed consistently over a 3+ year follow. Hits from a relaxed stance with a toe-tap stride and smooth hand load. Swing works short with consistent barrel accuracy. Repeatable operation with flashes of pop. Showed some of the best actions at short with soft hands and body control. 85 across with the ability to use multiple arm slots. Real chance to stick there at the next level. Gamer.
