3/12/25
+ OF Zachary Steichen (Brookfield East, 2027) measured at a compact and powerful 5-foot-11, 195 pounds with a very strong lower half. Steichen has an extremely explosive swing and was producing loud contact throughout his round at 98 mph max exit velocity. His line drive stroke shows all kinds of feel for the barrel and can drive the ball to all fields. He was 88 mph from the outfield and showed impressive carry through the target due to his ability to backspin the baseball through the target consistently. This top ranked 2027 and continues to open eyes with his ability on both sides of the ball.
