CIF Luke Nelson (Bishop Miege, 2026) is quietly emerging as one of the top power bats in the Sunflower State. Plenty physical at 6-foot-3, 225-pounds, Nelson put together one of the loudest rounds of BP at Sunday’s event, consistently driving balls with backspin to the pull side. Using a strong right-handed swing, Nelson led the event with a 90.3 mph average exit velocity while sending his best ball 370 feet at 100.6 mph into the pull side gap. That strength played in the infield as well where Nelson led all infielders with an 84 mph bullet across the diamond.
