Newman had a strong showing from a metric perspective at this event and I expect him to take on an everyday-type role behind the dish for Franklin this spring. Leaner frame with some muscularity at 5-foot-10, 165-pounds. Good athlete for the position with solid run times (1.69 10; sub-4.00 30). Set up in a wider, open, crouched stance before taking a heavier hovering stride into the ball. Turns the barrel high for a more out-front path, rotates well indicated by some of the days' best rotational acceleration scores, and reached a peak exit velocity of 95.6 mph. I thought he was one of, if not the best, receiver at the event with present above average hands for the age. Also led the event with a 77 mph arm from the crouch.

Colin Newman, a 2028 C/SS from Franklin Community High School (IN), stands 5-foot-10, 165 pounds with a well-proportioned frame. The right-handed hitter swings with short, athletic, handsy actions and flashes some power potential (87 max EV, 292’ max distance). He posted pop times in the 2.26–2.29 range with a 70 mph arm from a lower-slot, slingy release.
