2024 RHPs William Nazha (Barrington) and Luke Mejdrich (Hampshire) featured two of the better curveballs in attendance. Nazha’s curveball worked at 69-71 mph with sharp, tight spin (2491 average rpm), depth and action off an 11/5 plane with a chance to be a swing-and-miss offering moving forward. Nazha complimented his spin with a fastball that climbed up to 84 mph. Mejdrich has a strong, durable, 6-foot-1, 215-pound build and his 70-71 mph curveball featured similar tight, sharp action as Nazha’s. Mejdrich throws his curveball with conviction and arm speed averaging 2375 rpm while running his fastball up to 85.1 mph.
