2025 Super 60: had an impressive showing on this national stage. Nebraska recruit was measured at 6-foot-2, 202 with a well-proportioned and athletic frame. His fastball was 91-93 topping out at 94 from a lower and deceptive release height with heavy sinking action averaging 6.3” of IVB and 19.1” of run. His 4’6” release height was the lowest of the event which allows him to offer a unique and deceptive look to hitters making it difficult to pick up his release point. Additionally, Pankonin shows impressive touch and feel on his fastball. His slider is thrown hard at 83-86 mph and pairs extremely well with the fastball with over 20 inches of horizontal separation between the pitches. Pankonin’s changeup played with heavy fading action averaging 2.4 inches of IVB along with 19.4 inches of horizontal break while playing in the mid-80s. He also showed impressive “sell” of the pitch as it was thrown with fastball intent out of the same release point window as the fastball. Despite showcasing an impressive three pitch mix and repeatable delivery, Pankonin’s confident and calm mound presence was of his most admirable qualities of the performance. Pankonin not only showed that he belonged on this national stage but he was someone scouts were buzzing about after the event.
Uncommitted, Pankonin tossed a no-hitter against New Richmond last week. In seven innings Pankonin allowed two walks while striking out 10 total batters.
