Hilltopper commit, McGarry had onw of the most impressive outings in the state last week, firing a five inning perfect game with six strikeouts in the 11-0 win over Romeoville. On the season McGarry now has seven innings pitched and has yet to let up a earned run along with 10 strikeouts.
Verbally committed to Western Kentucky.
Uncommitted, ranked just outside the top-100 for the state currently. McGarry is an intriguing uncommitted arm to follow after our look at him Saturday. The 6-foot-3, 185-pound righty is an athletic mover on the mound paired with a loose, quick, and compact arm. He came out of the ‘pen for the Roadrunners and tossed two perfect innings against a very talented Hilltopper lineup to earn the save. He pounded the zone, with 20 of his 23 pitches finding the strike zone to make for an impressive 86% clip. His fastball played with sink and sat 86-87 mph, touching 88 mph a couple times in his first inning of work. His go-to secondary offering was a short, late-breaking slider that also flashed wipeout capabilities. McGarry will be an arm to continue to monitor on a very talented Nazareth squad. Final line: S, 2 IP, 0 H, 0 BB, 0 R, 4 K
RHP Mac McGarry (Nazareth Academy, 2025) came out of the event as one of the biggest winners. An uncommitted arm, McGarry opened his showcase with a statement, running an event-best 60 time (6.59) in an event featuring over 200 prospects. We saw McGarry at the same event last year, and he’s trending in the right direction, increasing his fastball velocity by four mph. He has a clean delivery on the mound with a quick arm, and his fastball sat 86-88 mph with some arm-side run. For his off-speed pitches he went to a slider and change-up, showing feel for both. His slider had a short, tight break at 77-79 mph, and his change-up sat 79-80 mph with slight fade. McGarry’s athleticism, movement on the mound, and continued velocity tick makes him a name-to-follow for this upcoming spring season.
