Prospect Wire 2025 Florida High School Team Outlook:
Chaminade Madonna Preparatory
Coach Mark McCoy loses only one player from his 2024 team and has added 6 impact players to his team. Look for the Lions to lean on their pitching staff and athleticism in the lineup as they work towards winning the school's first District Championship in 17 years.
The Lions pitching staff will have 3 legitimate starters in their rotation anchored by transfer Spencer Krasner (2026 LHP, South Carolina) followed by returners Michael Gine (2025 LHP, Eastern), Manny Delaosa (2025 RHP, STU), and Santiago Arismendi (2026 RHP). Krasner is one of the top LHP's in the 2026 class as his fastball gets up to 91 and has some off the chart metrics on his pitch arsenal. Gine and Delaosa led the Lions staff last season as both logged over 50IP last season.
Coach McCoy will need his young talent to carry the offense as he has star studded Sophomore group of position players such as Trace Zalman (2027 OF), Jake Carruthers (2027 IF), Alejandro Fernandez (2027 OF), Joshua Wright (2027 IF), and Adryn Diaz (2027 IF). Also look for transfer catcher Isaiah Fernandez (2026 C) to play a key role for the Lions. Zalman (.342, 26H, 29R, 22RBI, 3HR, 18SB) and Carruthers (.286, 24H, 18R, 23RBI, 1HR, 8SB) will look to build off their impressive Freshman campaigns. The Lions also have some talented Freshman who will certainly be bright pieces in the future for the Lions such as Chase Potter (2028 OF), Tyler Krasner (2028 RHP), and others.
