Collin
Lawlor

Uncommitted, the freshman southpaw made an impact last week for Marist as he made two appearances on the mound, starting against Benet, Lawlor went 6.2 innings, allowing just one run (unearned), four hits, walked one, and struck out nine. Against Brookfield Central, Lawlor came out of the pen and threw an inning allowing no baserunners and struck out one.

LHP/OF Collin Lawlor (Marist, 2028) is a projectable L/L prospect to note from the day who had a strong showing on both sides of the ball. He has room to add strength to his 6-foot, 175-pound frame, boasting a high waist and long levers. At the plate, the left-handed hitter showed easy strength with the ability to elevate to his pull-side, flashing line-drives up the middle with a peak EV of 90 mph. Lawlor continued to show well during the defensive portion of the workout; utilizing a clean one-hand gather off his front foot while showing steady actions throughout. On the mound, Lawlor showed a simple delivery with a loose arm out of a high ¾ slot. His fastball worked up to 82 mph with some arm-side action, and he showed above-average feel for a curveball, showing the ability to land it for strikes. He rounded out his mix with a low-70s changeup with fade.
