2024 National Academic Showcase (Tues-Wed)
Thor Hwasta is a 2027 OF/RHP with a 6-3 180 lb. frame from Boca Raton, FL who attends North Broward Prep. Nice young athletic build with some present strength and plenty more to come. 7.15 runner in the sixty. Primary outfielder on defense, moves well to the ball with a clean gather out front, makes on line throws with nice carry for his age, showed his athleticism well. Switch-hitter at the plate, hits from a similar approach from both sides, has a wider base with a toe tap trigger and stride into contact. Closes his front side off left handed and tends to work around his lower half, has a loose swing with some strength and bat speed behind it, ball comes off the barrel well with more bat speed there with adjustments and additional physical maturity. Didn't get as much back side release from the right side with less barrel aggression and overall bat speed/impact. Also pitched, works from the stretch with a high leg raise delivery, has a long off-line arm action in back and a 3/4's arm slot out front. Fastball topped out at 81 mph, mostly straight. Also threw a short slurve type breaking ball. Excellent student. Named to the National Academic Showcase Top Prospect List.
