LOCATION: St. Mary’s HS, Buffalo, NY
For every SCR | Under Armour Tryout Event throughout the United States & Canada Baseball Factory Scouts will be selecting a Top Prospect, Top Underclassmen (When applicable), & additional players who showed at minimum one plus tool.
TOP PROSPECT
John Bennett | SS | 6/160 | 2009 | Churchville Chili (NY) HS – John is an athletic SS with some foot speed (4.92 40 yard dash). At SS, shows soft hands and a quick release. Everything works well in the infield as he shows good footwork on double plays and carry on throws. Swing is quick with power to the pull side. Shows good extension and the ability to use the entire field. Lower half works well in swing. John is a legitimate college prospect.
TOP TOOLS
Please Note: Many players are selected for our Under Armour National
Tournament and Training Camps that do not appear on the Top Tools list. The
Tournament and Training Camp selections take into consideration the player’s
entire performance and how the scouts feel they will perform in a National
setting. There are a number of instances where our strongest overall
baseball players do not appear on the Top Tool lists. A player might have
3 or 4 good tools, but none that are outstanding so his name does not appear
in this section, however he might be selected for one of our National
Tournaments because of his overall skill level.
The Top Tools were selected by Jim Gemler (Director of On-Field Sessions / Scouting).
