Chad LeVardi (‘27,NC) • 2B/OF • 5’4 128lb 


Athletic frame and sets up with a narrow stance at the plate, showing a calm presence in the box. As the pitch comes in, he uses a low leg lift to stay controlled and connected, coiling into the back hip to keep him grounded and explosive. Once he commits, the swing is quick. He unwinds with fast hips and rotation, delivering the barrel with authority. On this particular swing, he catches it clean and drives a line drive double to the pull side, plating a run. It's a swing that blends balance, power, and intent.

The swing is compact and efficient, using a direct bat path to get the barrel out front on a fastball. He doesn't try to do too much, just lets the hands work and trusts his approach. 


Luke Untereker (‘29,NC) • OF/3B • 6’ 167lb


Shows a confident and athletic presence in the box, staying loose and ready to go. Utilizes a toe tap load to stay balanced.

It was a tone-setting at-bat that sparked a big inning for his team, showing not just bat-to-ball skill, but situational awareness and the ability to compete in the box.
