Elkhorn South |
SS/RHP |
|
|
Jindra did well for himself on the national stage at the Super 60. Participating as a position player, the Nebraska commit ran a 6.5, threw X across the diamond, and topped out at 102.2 MPH in BP. With the high school season starting, he's an early favorite to win our Player of the Year award... again. |

| 2 | Colin Driffill | Millard North | RHP |
|
One of the hardest throwers to come through the state in years. We've seen the reports that he's been up to 97 last fall, a heater he pairs with a low 80s breaking ball. That combination seems unfair at this point. |
|||
| 3 | Cordell Clinkingbeard | Papillion LaVista South | C |
|
The versatile defender and RHP from Papillion La Vista South continues to strengthen his case with steady production and premium tools. He's got juice at the plate, as evidenced by his 106.1 MPH exit velocity, and he can run a bit, with a 6.98 60, both from his recent Prep Baseball Upper Midwest Procase showing. He also got up on the mound and sat 91 to 93 mph as well. The K-State commit has options. |
|||
| 4 | Rowen Scholting | Millard West | RHP |
|
Scholting looks the part at 6-foot-4, 180 pounds and showed closer-type traits in Atlanta. Working from an over-the-top slot, he ran his fastball into the upper 80s with late cut and carry, drawing attention from college coaches. Calm, poised, and competitive, Scholting handled big moments with ease and solidified himself as a fast-rising arm with more in the tank. |
|||
| 5 | Cal Anthony | Creighton Prep | OF |
|
Cal Anthony features a balanced, athletic swing with quiet, explosive hands that produce consistent impact, including a 92.6 mph max EV and 343-foot peak at the Procase and 96.4 mph at the Future Games. In the outfield, he moves confidently with clean routes and an 87 mph arm that shows real carry. With projectable pop and a polished defensive skill set, Anthony continues to trend upward as a well-rounded 2025 outfielder. |
