Elder strikes out 6 in win
Gm # 18 | 4/1/2012 | 11:30 AM Black vs. Green

Kevin Elder (2012 - Burlington Central HS) struck out 6 in 3 innings of work for the Black team.  The Arizona commit sat at 86-88 MPH with his fastball and utilized his breaking ball more in his outing today.  He threw his breaking ball for strikes and showed good feel for it.  His fastball would get some run and sinking action on it at times today.  

Ryan Erickson (2012 - Mason City HS) made a jump in velocity today sitting at 84-86 MPH with his fastball touching 87 MPH a few times.  He has a loose arm with arm speed with a lean projectable build at 6-2 / 165 lbs.  He struggled with his command a bit today, however he is a very interesting player with this 2-3 MPH jump since the Indoor Showcase in mid February.  He has committed to Johnson County CC and should really develop there and be followed closely for more improvement.

Mitch Moser (2013 - Benton Community HS) looked good at the plate with a hard single to right field and another good at bat driving in the first run of the game.  He's a solid defensive player as well with good actions and some arm strength.
