Alex Armand
Louisiana Scouting Director

Lafayette, LA - On Tuesday, June 23, 2026, the Prep Baseball Louisiana staff traveled to the University of Louisiana-Lafayette, to host our Underclass Top Prospect Games, which featured over 100 players in the state's 2028 & 2029 classes.  Each participant went through a pro-style workout that consisted of running a laser-timed 60-yard dash with VALD Performance, defensive evaluations, and batting practice using Trackman Baseball and Blast Motion.  Each pitcher threw live in game with Trackman Baseball running to receive all of their pitching data and metrics.  Below, we take a look at some of the pitching prospects that caught our eye on Tuesday.

Stokes turned in one of the loudest batting practice rounds of the entire Underclass Top Prospect Games, consistently impacting the baseball with authority and showcasing his raw strength throughout the session. He recorded multiple triple-digit exit velocities, including an event-best 104 mph max exit velocity, while launching balls as far as 411 feet. The power is real and Stokes possesses some of the biggest raw juice in Louisiana's 2029 class.

+ 2028 OF Harrison Serio (Jesuit)
Athletic 6-foot-1, 180-pound frame with a lean build and plenty of room for additional strength as he continues to mature. Serio impressed offensively at the Underclass Top Prospect Games with a polished left-handed swing and an advanced feel for the barrel. He creates a tight and connected turn through the zone, allowing the barrel to get behind the baseball early and stay on plane for a long time, resulting in consistent hard contact from gap-to-gap. The swing mechanics, approach, and athleticism all point to an exciting offensive future for the Jesuit outfielder.
+ 2028 MIF Kannon Keiser (Sam Houston)
Athletic and versatile middle infielder with a high baseball IQ and a knack for impacting the game in a variety of ways. Keiser continues to stand out for his defensive instincts and ability to make plays from all angles, showing the arm strength and body control to throw accurately from multiple slots and on the move. Offensively, the switch-hitter employs a line-drive approach geared toward finding barrels and getting on base, where his speed and aggressiveness immediately become factors.

Behind the plate, Oustalet recorded an event-best 1.92-second pop time, further highlighting the versatility and completeness of his profile.
+ 2028 OF Caden Pryor (Loyola College Prep)

He did an excellent job of getting extended and catching the ball out front, allowing his natural strength and bat speed to do the rest. The left-handed hitter showed the ability to impact the baseball with authority and possesses intriguing power upside moving forward.
