Does Moeller even have 17 kids on their varsity roster? Lol.

I get it, they are loaded. I think Ohio is pretty loaded this season.

In NWOhio it is the usual suspects.

Oregon Clay is probably the favorite. The Eagles lost 4-3(?) in 9 innings to eventual state champ Northview in Districts and return their top 4 arms.
Toledo St. Johns
Perrysburg
Anthony Wayne
Toledo St. Francis
Fremont Ross has some decent arms.

Returning state champion Northview lost quite a bit and their HC went out on top and resigned after the season.

According to PBR, here are the college commitments as of right now (power 5 commits in parenthesis). I'm sure there are others that have been offered but aren't committed yet.

Elder - 4 total commits (Alabama '23)
Moeller - 5 total commits (Ohio State '23, Wright State 23' & '24, Notre Dame '24, Duke '25)
Mason - 8 total commits (Michigan '23, Indiana '24, Ohio State '24, Auburn '24, Louisville '25)
Fairfield - 2 total commits (Louisville '24)

Moeller has a few other commits: Cincinnati '23, another Ohio State '23, Air Force '23, George Mason '23, Kentucky '25, West Virginia '25, Missouri '26.
I know not all of these are Power 5 but just wanted to put the schools out there.

Safe to say, as someone noted earlier, Moeller is loaded. They are #11 in the Perfect Game National Rankings for a reason.

Troy is a dark horse this year. They have underperformed for the most part to this point. Loaded with talent and a senior heavy team. Led by top 5 player Ryder Kirtley who is a VT commit. 2-3 guys who can hit high 80’s low 90’s. Very strong staff. Solid hitting. They will run through a weak MVL league (Butler and Tipp will be strong). It’s just a matter if they can not choke in playoffs again.

You tend to name your “top players” or “top returning players”. Pretty crazy that Moeller could have a dozen D1 guys who don’t meet that criteria.
