SS Adam Hall continued to impress evaluators.

Hall (London, Ont.) was one of the must-see players at the National Showcase at Jet Blue Park-Stadium in Fort Myers, Fla. as scouts began preparing for the 2017 draft.

The Great Lake Canadians and Canadian National Junior Team member ran a 6.29 60-yard dash (fifth best), showed one of the strongest arms and had one of the top exit velocities at the bat.  

Besides Hall, who played for Texas Orange, three other Canadians were in Fort Myers: OF Cooper Davis    (Mississauga, Ont.) and OF Rashad Collymore (Mississauga, Ont.) of the Ontario Blue Jays were with the Royals.    

RHP Noah Skirrow (Stoney Creek, Ont.) of the Ontario Blue Jays was with the Reds.

Group 3 BP Standouts
Jheremy Brown
Rashad Collymore is a young and physically gifted switch-hitting prospect from Canada who showed both bat speed and strength from either side of the plate with better leverage coming at the point of contact from the left side.

Adam Hall, another young prospect from Canada, put together an extremely loud day one and continued to impress with the bat after running and throwing very well. From the right side the Texas A&M commit did a nice job of incorporating his lower half and explosive hands into his swing, consistently driving balls off the Green Monster in left field.

Texas Orange vs. White Game Highlights
Jheremy Brown
Adam Hall (2017 SS, London, ON) made the trip down from Canada and has continued to impress all around. A righthanded bat, the Texas A&M was able to show off the hit tool and his speed in a single swing as he lined a ball down the right field line and raced into second base for a standup double.

9-Royal vs 11-Vegas Gold
Matt Czechanski
Rashad Collymore (2017 OF, Mississauga, ON)-Showed quick twitch in his swing with good bat speed to lace a double to the left-centerfield gap.

9-Royal vs 10-Texas Orange
Matt Czechanski
Adam Hall (2017 SS, London, ON)-The Texas A&M commit followed up a loud BP with a hard single through the right side in game. Bat speed and intent are impressive. 

Navy vs. Red Game Highlights

By Jheremy Brown
Noah Skirrow (2017 RHP, Stoney Creek, ON), an uncommitted righthander out of Canada worked in the 86-89 mph range, bumping a 90 over his two innings of work. In addition to the fastball, Skirrow was able to miss barrels with his changeup in the low-80s featuring late fading life away from lefthanded hitters.
