2028 1B Gavin Tickle @GavinTickle19 (@ElidaBaseball) 6-foot-4, 195-pound first base prospect. The right-handed hitter works with a level bat path through the zone and showed present strength with the ability to impact the baseball. Produced a loud RBI single to left field that came off the bat with impressive exit velocity. Finished the night 2-for-3 with two RBIs.

2028 SS Colton Graham @Colton8G (@ElidaBaseball) The 6-2, 190-pound two-way prospect showed well offensively while hitting out of the two-hole. The right-handed hitter went 2-for-4 with an RBI and run scored, consistently finding the barrel throughout the night. Simple operation at the plate with a level bat path through the zone and the ability to stay on pitches well. Also a good arm with a low to mid-80s fastball. A name to know.

2028 RHP Jonan Snyder @JonanSnyder (@ElidaBaseball) FB: 83-86, T86.9 SL: 72-74 CH: 77-79 6-3, 195-pound right-handed pitching prospect made a strong first impression in our initial look this spring. Worked with a quality three-pitch mix, showing feel and confidence to land the slider in any count. Competed with presence on the mound and consistently attacked hitters throughout the outing.  7 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 4 K, 3 BB. 60/94 strikes. Also contributes offensively as a middle-of-the-order bat, hitting out of the three-hole and producing consistently at the plate this spring. A name to know.

In a tight @wblsports clash, @ElidaBaseball (10-6, 5-3 WBL) defeats #13 (D3) @DefianceBBall (11-5, 5-2 WBL) 3-2 to stay in contention within the league. Elida’s 2028 class had a day. RHP @JonanSnyder got it done on the bump, throwing a complete game, allowing just two runs, while striking out four. SS @Colton8G and 1B @GavinTickle19 paced the offense. Graham went 2-4 with an RBI and run scored, while Tickle went 2-3 with two RBIs. 2027 RHP @ikewebb_35 got the start for the Bulldogs, striking out 12 in six strong innings. 2028 C @Colt_Ward30 paced the offense while also doing a great job defensively behind the plate. The LHH went 2-3 with two doubles and an RBI for Defiance. Defiance thought they tied it up in the 6th, but the runner was called out for leaving 2nd base too early on a sacrifice fly. The sac fly is shown in the video below.
