An uncommitted arm to know in the 2024 class after this weekend is RHP Cole Noreuil (Delavan, 2024). Standing at 6-foot, 190-pounds and ranked No. 86 in the state, Noreuil dominated on Saturday. He worked with an upper 80’s fastball that sat 87-89 mph, T90 early on, while mainly playing in the mid 80’s later in the game. Noreuil mainly used fastballs throughout his six innings, but would mix in a tight breaking ball in the mid-70s for swings and misses when needed. Noreuil’s final line: 6 IP, 0 R, 3 H, 12 K.

Uncommitted. Currently slated at No. 97 in Illinois’ class of 2024. Stands at an athletic and strong 6-foot, 190-pounds. Noreuil threw 6 â�� innings, struck out 10, walked three, and allowed no runs or hits - only being taken out due to pitch count. Showed confidence on the mound and worked with a quick and quality pace. Produced weak ground ball contact throughout the game. Mostly threw fastballs with an occasional curveball mixed in. Fastball sat 86-89 mph, topping out at 90 mph with arm-side run. His curveball sat 71-72 mph with 12/6 shape. A quality look at a top uncommitted arm in Illinois’ junior class.

A couple of upside 2024 right-handed arms on Team 2 to know moving forward were Cole Noreuil (Delavan) and Ryan Mickenbecker (Plainfield North). Noreuil has an easy delivery, ran his fastball up to 86 mph and struck out two in three innings of work. Mickenbecker has a long-limbed, 6-foot-5, 175-pound frame and comes from a tough over-the-slot angle creating all kinds of angle and tilt to his fastball which sat in the low-80’s (has been up to 87 mph in the past).

Noreuil is an athletic arm still developing spin for his breaking ball but showed above average fade and feel for his changeup at 76-78 mph.
