Delaware '32 I'm blessed to announce my commitment to the University of Delaware to continue my athletic and academic career! I want to first thank God for setting me on this journey and being by my side every step of the way. Without him I would not be where I am today. I want to thank my family, friends, and teammates for the endless support throughout this journey. A special thank you to my Mom and Dad for the countless sacrifices they have made so I can chase my dreams. Dad I want to thank you for all of your guidance on and off the field. I would not be close to who I am today without your support. Mom thank you for always being by my side no matter what. Thank you for always pointing me in the right direction and supporting me through this process. To all of my coaches who have been a part of my journey, thank you for your belief in me, for pushing me to become the best version of myself, and for teaching me lessons that extend far beyond field. Your guidance, dedication, and encouragement have played an incredible role in shaping me into the player and person I am today. A special thank you to Coach Grandieri, Coach Moyer, and the Episcopal coaching staff along with Coach McCann, Coach Lawler, and the Ascent family, you guys have been the most impactful coaches along this path of mine. I couldn't be here without your help. Finally, a huge thank you to Coach Mamula, Coach Bresnahan, and the rest of the Delaware staff for believing in me and blessing me with this opportunity. Go Blue Hens!

Just wrapped up the WWBA tournament in Ft Myers. Faced some good competition. Went 4-7 at the plate with a triple. Also, got a lot of different angles on defense playing C, 3B, 2B, RF, and got on the bump hitting 88 multiple times. Overall a great experience. Thanks @PG_Tourney

#WWBA @PG_Tourney ‘28 RHP Eli Paradise @eliparadisee ▪️6’2 | 200 | 3.5+ ▪️FB 88-91 | SL 78 | CH 80 The 2028 RHP (PA) showed WELL in Fort Myers. Velo continues to pop with the FB now up to 91, several S&M with the SL, and flashed CH to keep hitters off balance. Multiple looks in the stretch to hold runners on, long pause, SS with no velo drop, multiple PO attempts. Visible athleticism and pimps the finish.

#WWBA @PG_Tourney ‘28 RHP Michael Schaffer @michael_schaf13 The potential 2-way out of Episcopal HS (PA) shoved in 4 innings on Friday in Fort Myers. Impressive outing with some swag on the mound🔥 ▪️FB 88-92 2249rpm ▪️SL 78-80 2140rpm ▪️CH 79 1240rpm Schaffer stands 6’2, 195 and physical, with a 3.6gpa. The 28 prospect can also swing it, interesting option as a 2-way (3B/LF) as he’s got athleticism and power with the bat. Sub 7 runner and faced high level arms all summer.
