Johnny Louise, 3B, Montini, 2027 Uncommitted. Strong build, 6-foot, 217-pounds with evenly distributed strength throughout. Started at third base and hit out of the five-hole for the Broncos, finishing the day a perfect 3-for-3 with two doubles, four RBIs and two runs scored. The right-handed hitter has a simple swing with pre-pitch rhythm, keeping his hands quiet with the ability to manipulate the barrel with ease and cover the plate, seeing the ball deep and using the whole field. He showed steady hands at third base and a quality arm across the diamond. Middle of the order profile that will look to continue to be a big piece in this Broncos lineup.

RHP Johnny Louise (Montini Catholic, 2027) is another incoming-sophomore that threw the ball well. The 6-foot, 200-pound righty featured a low 80’s fastball that topped at 83 mph. His best offspeed offering on the day was a 70-72 mph changeup that played in the zone 67% of the time with arm-side fade. He mixed in a 71-74 mph slider that had feel for the zone, and also showed a 68-70 mph curveball with out-pitch characteristics.
An athletic 5-foot-10, 190-pounds right handed pitcher started on the mound for Top Tier Americans against the Prospect Training Academy Cardinals. In five innings of work, Louise punched out eight batters, gave up one run on two hits and two walks. Louise used a healthy mix of three pitches. The fastball worked clean out of the hand with some life, sitting 78-80 mph throughout the outing. Playing off the fastball was an 11/5 curveball that sat 69-72 mph and a changeup sitting 68-71 mph.
