Will Knapp, OF, Morris (IL), 2023
True Freshman. Highly projectable 6-foot-1, 185-pounds frame, lean/wiry strength with twitch. Knapp showed some of the highest-level tools all across the board, starting with his 6.77 in the 60-yard dash. The right-handed hitter creates easy bat-speed with his loose/flat stroke, averaging 76.5 mph and reaching up to 81.8 mph according to BLAST. The ball jumped off his bat, working mostly line-drives to his pull-side/middle, reaching up to 101.1 mph for his max EV with an average of 91.2 mph. His aforementioned speed will allow him to patrol the outfield and cover ground with ease, and his arm is well above-average, reaching up to 93 mph from a crow hop.

Uncommitted. Listed 6-foot-1, 170-pounds right handed hitting center fielder. Simple, balanced stance, active pre-pitch hands, short stride. Short to the baseball, creates natural backspin and lift, line drive type hitter to the gaps. Knapp went 2-for-3 on the day with a solo home run on the first pitch he saw and a single to center field.
