Phil Wade
Indiana Executive Director

As we are nearing the end of another calendar year, we have compiled a list of the top 10 most viewed Indiana player profiles this year.  According to our research through our google analytics, these are the most viewed profiles by you the reader in 2022.

Coming in at No. 8 is 2024 OF Jayce Lee (Saint Joseph HS). Lee, a Notre Dame commit, had a stellar 2022 campaign, including a remarkable showing at the PBR Future Games. The uber-projectable Lee stands in at 6-foot-3, 175 pounds with broad shoulders and a frame that is equal parts athletic as it is strong. He showed big power potential throughout the year along with a good defensive presence in the field. His 93 mph arm strength is a future plus tool that could allow him to blossom into an advanced defender. Lee is ranked No. 3 in Indiana and No. 85 nationally.

A right-handed hitter, Lee produces easy bat speed and possesses present pull-side power. Also a graceful defender, his 93 mph arm is a future plus-tool that could allow him to blossom into an advanced corner outfielder.
