Ranked as the #3 prospect in Arizona’s 2026 class, Ryan Harwood continues to prove why he’s one of the most exciting players in the state. The outfielder for the two-time state champion Casteel Colts is no stranger to Prep Baseball, having attended the 2024 Pro Case at Pepperdine University as an underclassman. Over the past few months, Harwood has made intriguing swing adjustments, and the results were on full display at the Preseason All-State event, where he launched balls with true backspin, posting an event-high 104.1 mph exit velocity and a max distance of 406 feet. Standing at a physically imposing frame, Harwood is a powerhouse at the plate and will be a force in the SEC at Texas A&M. On top of his offensive dominance, he also recorded the top outfield velocity of the event at 94 mph, further solidifying his status as one of the premier prospects in the 2026 class.
