Fastball
Hop+
A fastball with hop has a flat approach angle and visually jumps through the zone. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher swing and miss average. Hop+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Sink+
A fastball with sink has low backspin and drops through the strike zone. When thrown down in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher ground ball percentage and lower launch angle. Sink+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Rise+
A fastball with rise has a high percentage of backspin. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher fly ball percentage. Rise+ of 100 is MLB average

One of the strongest players in Kansas, INF/C Aven Woods (Chapman, 2026) continues to trend upward after a spring in which he hit well over .500, emerging as one of the most improved offensive players in the state. Physically imposing at 6-foot-1, 234 pounds, Woods put together one of the loudest rounds of BP at the event, launching his furthest ball 371 feet at 98.4 mph, while averaging 90.5 mph per batted ball. He’s reached 105+ mph exit velocities in previous looks this summer, underscoring the raw strength and power in his right-handed swing. Behind the plate, the soon-to-be senior showed a 74 mph arm and 1.99–2.10 pop times, continuing to profile as a physical middle-of-the-order presence with defensive versatility.
Positional Profile: 1B/C
Body: 6-1, 235-pounds. Physical build.
Hit: RHH. Tall even setup with a wide base, weight centered, and active hands. Uses a short leg lift trigger gaining some ground forward. Compact flat path through the zone, some barrels, power present.
Power: 98 max exit velocity, averaged 90.5 mph. 371' max distance.
Arm: RH. C-74 mph. Short stroke from a high 3/4 slot.
Defense: 1.99-2.10 pop times. Athletic actions defensively.
ATH: 7.01 runner in the 60. 1.59 and 3.88 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 21.90 max vertical.
As physical and strong as they come at 6-foot, 239-pounds, INF Aven Woods (Chapman, 2026) possesses some of the biggest power potential in the state. Throughout his round of BP, Woods used a quick, strong right-handed swing to pepper line drives to the pull side, barreling his best ball 93.5 mph with a peak distance of 355 feet. He also posted an impressive 88.2 mph average exit velocity while also showing athletic actions on the infield with a 78 mph top velocity to pair. As Woods continues to polish his skills, look for him to become a name to know, middle of the order power bat in the state.
Aven Woods, Chapman (KS), 2026
Positional Profile: 3B/C
Body: 6-0, 239-pounds. Physical frame.
Hit: RHH. Wide base with front foot open. Quiet hands pre load. Short leg lift trigger. Long flat path through the zone, some barrels. 69.7 mph bat speed with 8 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 93 max exit velocity, averaged 88.2 mph. 355' max distance.
Arm: RH. INF-78 mph. Short stroke from a high 3/4 slot showing feel for a lower 3/4 slot as well.
Defense: Athletic actions defensively.
ATH: 7.26 runner in the 60. 28.50 max vertical.
