SS/RHP Levi Nickoli (@NickoliLevi, 2026) showing off the two-way ability, slamming the door in the 7th in the 4-0 win. Athletic delivery, hides the ball well, comes out free and clean. Up tempo and in rhythm. Breaking ball tunnels well off of the fastball. FB: 86-89 mph (to both sides of the dish) CB: 76-78 mph (downer action) @AuburnBaseball recruit. #ALHS26 || @ShooterHunt

Faced the minimum w/ 2 punch outs (8/13 strikes). CH plays well off the FB w/late tumble away from LHH. Lights out command w/ all 3 offerings.

1B James Eady (@Jameseady_5, 2027) with a loud barrel resulting in a Sac Fly for the Patriots. Short & simple operation. Matches plane on an elevated fastball pushing across a run to extend the lead to 4-0. Can really pick it at 1B as well. #ALHS26 || @PB_Uncommitted

OF George Brockwell (@GBrock28, 2027) with a loud leadoff double to start the inning for the Patriots but he’s left stranded. Present lag with a slight uphill path with the barrel. Feel to hit, mostly middle to pull side approach. Still scoreless, T6. #ALHS26 || @PB_Uncommitted

SS Levi Nickoli (@NickoliLevi, 2026) with 2 early line outs, including this missile to SS. Continues to take quality swings. Athletic build & has added noticeable strength. Quick hands showing in the swing w/ gap-to-gap approach. Moves well defensively on the dirt, flashing elite leather and arm strength. @AuburnBaseball recruit. #ALHS26 || @ShooterHunt
